The new GT30R is being presented to me on the 4/1/06 which is an internally gated T3 flanged turbo with the 0.63 A/R housing. The compressor still flows around 50lbs/min so will be good for power figures near 500hp and still maintain early boost. These will bolt straight on to your existing stock housing with the only change needed being braided oil and water lines. Even with the cost to adapt it, it should still be around the same price as the highflows but with more effieciency so less boost will be required to achieve the same result. PM me if you are interested.

Ok, sorry to get everyone's hopes up but here is the bad news:

The turbo is basically a GT30R with a hole cut in it above the turbine for the wastegate. Then they have bolted this housing thing over the top which has the flapper built into it. They have it all closed off except the turbine hole 2.5 inch which is where the wastegate gases have to exit also. This means that the dump pipe is no longer T3 but a three bolt triangular config and also means that your standard dump will not bolt up to it.

I expressed my disappointment to him about Garrett failing to come up with a decent idea. I showed him how it should have been made and we both can't understand why Garrett chose to do it the way they did.

He is going to get back to me on some grafting options where your existing exhaust housing may be able to be adapted to a GT30R front. This, I am hopeful, will achieve the task.

Other than that....if you don't mind paying $2000 plus an extra $600 in adapting costs, let me know....lol.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
