Hey guys after a reputable shop in Brisbane that can flow my stock GTR turbos. How much does it cost for both and do they replace the core with a roller bearing assembly? Also what specs are they after rebuild.

Many thanks,

Deren

Steel wheels is the only thing i would put into a GTR turbo... hi-flows tend to not be matched decently.

with that many choices (and affordable) in the brand new range, its almost pointless doing a hi-flow on GTR turbos IMO

Completely agree, same goes for the high flowed RB25 turbo's, these days your almost better off paying the couple hundred bucks extra and buying something brand new from the vast array of aftermarket options in the same price bracket.

(EDIT: Jeez my spelling is bad)

As i said to R31Nismoid i was thinking about the GTSS kit but im way over bidget already with this rebuild.

Hmmm not sure what to do now.

your looking at around $2500 with the gtr flows, 3000 for gt-ss, or around 2500 for garrett's which are virtually the same.

I'd be geting the new garretts over the flows.

Bendingo - i disagree with the flows on 25's.

The GCG hi-flow has had sooo many good results now that IMO its perfect for the RB25, but we aint talking RB25s here :D

Also maybe talk to Mike Vine. I dont know what his rep is like on here, but everywhere else it seems pretty good. Only going to cost you a phone call to talk to him at least.

Hey mate, thanks for that. Whats his business name or number?

Cheers

    • It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
    • Yeah - My key still does the chime thing. I followed the procedure but it didn't activate on the (identical) third set of keyfob that I had. I vaguely remember the alarm saying you can only pair two keys with it. Now that I've dug it up, it appears that you very much can pair keyfobs to the alarm system. (which are the fobs I use to unlock the car). I have successfully diverted the thread and can probably not use the OEM keyfob ever again unless I use the aftermarket alarm and attempt to pair the OEM keyfob to it. Which might just work, or not :D. I definitely used the nissan method and not the aftermarket alarm method.
    • What makes it worse is that Nissan made keys in the same style, for example R34 and Stagea, but they work at different frequencies or something like that. So they look the same but the remotes are not interchangeable. I learned that from some guy selling aftermarket blank keys.
    • Does your door chime work when you have the key in the lock and open the door? I've had that disabled because it's f**king annoying and it is one thing that messes with the pairing. Because now the car doesn't detect key in ignition anymore and the slide-key-in-and-out sequence does not trigger the pairing mode anymore. The service manual has a section on the various bits involved in doing the syncing. I presume it'll be similar between Stagea and R34.
    • Agree, but meh, I think is is based more on LOLS than actually apples to apples, like, who would have thunk a turbo 4 cylinder would not beat a NA 4 cylinder  I think with just basic N/A mods, like a exhaust and tune, it would be equal to the Mini in its current form, maybe I know my current 2.5 would "chop the mini" as the midrange now has a night and day difference in power delivery compared to the tuned 2.0, by around 20kwatw and 30nm from around 2k rpm "ish"....... I'm kinda hoping that they do a N/A build, either with the MZR 2.0 or with whatever they decide to use If I recall correctly they did talk about K swapping one a while ago
