well i put a thread up on DW and they recon its a great turbo...
there's also a gt2876r?? know anything about them???
2871r are basically the same as a hks gtrs.The hks turbo is made by garrett and jus cause they have a hks stamp they're twice the money!!I know a good few lads running the 2871r and as long as your not running stupid levels of boost through them they're well worth the money
nice car lad always love bright colours, just put a 2871r in my 14, it not mapped yet but hope it gives no bother,dnt like the sound of the lads saying they blow up cause i think it going be runnin 1.2bar....

it'll run 1.2 no bother lad,have seen one running 1.8:D They're a good turbo for a safe 380 with the necessary mods ta back it up

yeah but for how long?gt2871 would only be generating serious heat at that boost you would need a serious intercooler or water injection to get the most out of high boost on gt2871.↲@grimix180 ye must have been doing something wrong did ye have a reducer on the oil feed roller bearings don't like high oil pressure

i wasn recommending running it at 1.8 theres no way it would be reliable at that but it should be very reliable at 1.2
yes we did have a oil restrictor on it the problem is there a plastic cage on the bearings they also generate huge heat in the engine bay i normally took off the bonnet it used to boil the power steering fluid so lost power steering fluid also i would reccomend a screamer elbow on it to reduce heat i was running it at 1.3 bar boost pullin third no hassles wit it but they run outta guts at bout 6k if i was bak again id have gone for a jrp gt 30 drove jamies car wit 1 on it and the power was mental on a standard engine and it ran 1.8 bar boost all day safely tbh im only speakin from experience gained from my mistakes and the amount of them that i no have shat themselves although now i believe they can be got with wrc steel bearings in them which should be ok but the turbo must be specified with them fitted

how does a screamer pipe reduce heat? :confused:
what are the specs on a "JRP GT30"?

It's our own type turbo,it's based on a gt3071 but to our own spec
It's our own type turbo
:confused::confused: so is this why ur mate has been spammin this thread sayin a very good turbo is shit:confused:
Its a build/project thread not a talk shit about homemade turbo thread;)
jamie180sx
10-01-10, 16:32
first of all he never said the gt2871r isnt a good turbo,because it is but they have known to give trouble,ask colfer he had trouble with them to,and owens devolpments the garrett dealer said they had to fit them with Wrc style bearings in them to solve the problem once again ask them,he then said about the GT30 was a great turbo which they are for drifting,he was giving advice like i did earlier in this tread,as for spamming take it up with him as i gave my advice earlier and then when asked as question replied so take it up with him as i aint spamming any tread.
It's our own type turbo,it's based on a gt3071 but to our own spec
yea well i know what the 3071 are..
ye not find them bit laggy though???
was told to go for the 2871r cause they are very responsive and not laggy..
and @ grimix180 who maps your car??? TDP???
jamie180sx
10-01-10, 19:22
no lad not one bit laggy at all,there maybe 200-300 rpm earlier on full boost,nothing a clutch kick cant sort:Dbut the 2871 dont pull out top end like the gt30,and youve so much trottle response with the gt30 as it come in so quick.ive driven alot of drift cars with both turbos and once you drive a car with a gt30 you will never go back to anything else trust me on that;)
the 2871 would sell in uk very quick so my advice is sell it and go GT30 i promise you will not regret it

sorry to spam your thread abit more bart but id love to hear more bout this gt30 setup.
If youve got a gt3071 of some sort spooling faster than a gt2871r then fair fucks. Did the 2871r have a larger a/r like the .86 or 1.12? Was it the same exhaust manifold set up? both top or bottom mount?
My turbo is basically at gt3071r with a different exhaust housing and its definatly laggy compaired to any 2871 with a reasonable a/r
Lovely machine man! Nice shade of green. Is the front bumper meant to be that way though?

Hi lad can I pm u tomorrow as Im not near a pc and it's a balls typeing on a I phone,out of intrest what's ur turbo come in on pm if u like
no bothers man pm away. Im running a 3037s
im not spammin im speakin 4rom experience and wat good is a tubby that wont last and ask colfer he went thru a few of them
but the 2871 dont pull out top end like the gt30
if you run a resonable amound of boost with a 2871 it would be a far better turbo! if you need to run over 1.3 bar to get decent power you shud try another map!!

its not that you need to run higher boost to get the power as im not disputing the power output of these turbos,like i said there good for what they are,but the GT30 imo is a better turbo,each to there own at the end of the day.its about the power your planning on.the way i see it a 2871 or a GT30 both at 1 bar the gt30 is gonna develop more power and to me is a better turbo so its not all about running high boost,bigger turbos develop bigger power simple.
anyway i think we should get back on topic to a great project as we have talked about the turbos enough,its up to bart to decide what turbo he chooses,any one any more questions about turbos,pm me no probs as to not to clog up barts thread
best of luck with the build whatever you use;)

nice wagon lad!!
just found out that the top of the spark plug broke off and sat on piston 2...
so this now putting the build back another week.
thought i'd have it running this weekend...
thats a balls lad :( did it do much damage?
thats a balls lad :( did it do much damage?
no lad.. stiv has the head away now. been tested. he recons its ok..
just need a new piston...
so hopefully thats it and i'll be sorted for next week...
still waiting on few bits in to finish it....
hopefully i'll have engine back this weekend:D
ok quick update..
put engine in last week..
ended up having to go nistune as my power fc was wrong one..
anyway car was running fine and ran it in for a day..
had it in stivs and him and a mate of mine went and mapped it.
car was running 100% and finished the map..
they were on way home and heard a rattle:eek:
got it back to shed.
so out comes engine AGAIN:mad:
ANYWAY IT WAS OUR OWN FAULT.
WE PUT THE OIL RECOLATER KIT PIPES ON WRONG WAY AROUND.:(
SO NO OIL GETTING AROUND:o
SO MEANS BEARINGS ARE WANKED..
BUT CRANK IS OK;)
SO NEW SET OF BEARINGS GOING INTO IT TOMORROW AND PUTTING IT BACK TOGETHER TOMORROW..
WILL BE PUTTING ENGINE IN FRI.
SO MONDELLO IS LOOKING GOOD.
WANNA SAY THANKS TO COLM FOR HIS HELP TONIGHT IN STIVS.. :D
Jesus that was unfortunate. How much of a tit do you feel? :p
Dunnedriftin
10-03-10, 21:18
Is the turbo alright if oil wasnt getting around?
jesus lad not havin much look...hope it works out next time..
Pipes round the rong way shouldnt cause the engine to go bang, itl only mean the oil goes through the cooler befor the filter and through the filter the rong way, it wont restrict the flow. If i wer you, id check for a more in depth/underlying probs or you might be doing the same again in a few weeks.
Also, if the bearings have ran on the crank, i bet you €100 if you mesure the jernal properly its fooooked;)

11-03-10, 00:12
bart dat is hard fukin luk lad!!!! but polo's right!! ive never seen a set of bearings go without doin damage!!! even if the crank looks mint its still got damage!!

i was told that the filter was only a one way flow?
would this not just stop it altogether??
as for the crank.
we measured it tonight and its spot on...

you send it down to a shop tonight to get it measured actually & properly by a mechanical engineer ?

Do you ever stop being a no all?! :p Christ talk about givin the man the spanish inquisition :rolleyes:
Most "mechanical engineers" i know wouldnt know a crank journal if they got smacked across the face with it..
Sorry to hear of your misfortune bart, hope you get sorted dude :)

Amazingly enough my uncle is a mechanical engineer (Lc Engineering) and he does these everyday of the week... :cool:
So yes i do actually know a bit about what im talking about here & see it all the time when im in the workshop!

Fair enough..
Just pisses me off that when someone has a bit off miss fortune everyone becomes an expert! Sure his head is fried enough as it is!

do you comment on every post???????
as i said colm on here done it..
he said it was fine.
i trust him.. he knows what he's on about...
my only worry is now that what polo said..
but i'll show this to the lad thats doing my engine..
hopefully the oil flow was restricted..
@polo.. shed some more light on this please

Noone becoming an expert here apart from folks that know what they're talking about, they're literally passin concern that could save another engine further down the line, how is that frying his head when its merly people showing concern over something maybe that was over looked etc?
I love how your right in the sense of folks thinking they know everything when in fact a lot know sweet fa, just love to read their own opinions. (Im not stating that directly on here, im on about in general) ;)
Shitty bad luck though, hopefully get it sorted and it'll be grand

No no nooooo! I was not aiming what i said at anyone in particular... Quite clear they know sr's inside out ;) ;)
Think you know what i mean ;)
I shall be contacting you soon about transporting some bits to the uk for me too :)
i measured the crank tonight with a micrometer, they measured 54.985-54.965mm i think it was. We had an undamaged crank there too and compaired them both and barts was actually measuring more consitant across all than the good one. It didnt spin any of the bearings.
There is very slight scoring on the journals, you can see them on the surface but are very hard to feel under your fingernail, Not perfect but far from fucked. there was unbelievably little damage on them given the bearings were knackered

Drive 'er on so :D
@JH - No probs ;)
The filter has no one way valve or any thing in it like that, at the end of the day its just a paper element filter in a tin can. oil will flow both ways freely, i dont know the specific oil cooler/relocation kit your using, there is a possablity it might be that but no kit iver ever seen will only flow one way. Yes there is the right way, but the rong way wont kill an engine.
The crank needs to be mesured at at least 2 differant possisions on each jernal where a bearing has gone.
How bad did they go? metal in the sump? or just scored?
Id be bit wary of just sticking some shels in and engine where they failed so soon after a build, thats really fast wear and id be having the oil pump apart to check for scoring and damage.
Yea iv fitted new shells to engines with shell damage befor but none of them knocked and all of them wer due to high miles, not oil probs.
i dont know what relocator is on the engine or how it was plumped up. But i measured all the journals at 3 points (benifit of narrow mic's) and theres no sign of an tapering on them.
The shells were scored alright but i dont know about anything left floating in the sump, it was stripped beyond that when i got there
if the relocater is autobahn 88 or a ebay jobbie bin it will pop engines for fun
if the relocater is autobahn 88 or a ebay jobbie bin it will pop engines for fun
we dont know what the make is..
it was on the car when it came in from japan...
moment of truth later on today anyway... :o
id do away with it the cause major losses in oil pressure unless there a good make

bad luck bart,
id do away with it the cause major losses in oil pressure unless there a good make
it was a thrust oil cooler..
i dont trust it anymore and its now FOOKED over the hedge back of shed...:mad:
engine was cleaned down today..
so putting it back together tomorrow and throwing the engine in..
so fingers crossed:(
that sure was bad luck!hope she goes well for ya when back together!
Should have went for the...........

Did you measure the bore of the con-rods when torqued up ? Did you check the line bore of the bock ?

maybe colm could help on this one.... :confused:
maybe colm could help on this one.... :confused:
he means did you torque up the caps on the con rods and measure the inside of the hole if the rods were over heated or run for a period of time with the bearings gone the hole can be gone out of shape causing odd pressuers or loosenes in one or more spot on the crank causing bearing failure,
and by the line bore i pruseme he ment that the bores (cylinders) are 100% in line and square to the crank journals if not the rod will be at a slight angle to the crank and wear one side of the bearing

Your 50% right Gem.. The con rods go oval form the pounding and heat. If there not re honed they will cause instant bearing failure again. The line bore is the main bearing caps and straightness through them.

NO!!!!!!!!!!!
i second that its been done
Didnt see the car up close so sorry about the stupid question :o Since when does it need a reshell?
Surely it would be better to wack it back together and drive the bag out of it and just build away the new shell on the side no?

Didnt give a whole pile of looking myself because i was busy at my own but it is hit very hard, keith was lucky not to be hurt. chassis and valance were well fucked from what i saw and all back along!

Ah riiiiiiiiiiiiight makes a bit more sense now then :) Didnt go near it myself only saw it drive past on the tow truck as it bugs me when someone smacks their car and everyone is tryin to get a look...
I still say stickin it back should still be given some comsideration just for the rest of the year like and be building away a nice new shell on the side..
have i not got a say in this????:confused::confused::confused:

stripped all my old one last week and have alot of it done..
engine in and back end in.
also wiring loom in..
another few evenings should see it running and just tidy it then...
wanna say thanks a million to tommy (looneydrift) on here.
