Hi all,

I'm selling a pair of ball bearing Garrett turbos to suit RB26DETT - GTRs. They come complete with 1bar rated actuators, modified oil drain flange pipes, and most gaskets, so all you need to fit is maybe a few gaskets and some patience!

I purchased these turbos not long ago, they're the only reason i'm selling them is that they're probably a little too big and therefor laggy for my current plans. That an i got an exhaust leak and i have had to remove them!!! ;):rofl: If sold i'll probably be going through the headache of a big single conversion.

Turbos are located in Townsville North QLD and i'll pay the freight to anywhere in australia if they're sold. and if i get a good price i'll even throw in brand-new un-used genuine nissan head-manifold gaskets.

They're rated at 320hp a piece and the part/chra number is 707160-005. According to the retailer that sold them to me theyre similar spec to the GT28RS but with smaller housings.

They come on like a freight train at 4-5k and above 5k they keep going and going.. They've never really gotten a proper chance to perform in my car, but I have done a 12.1 at 114mph with around 1 bar.. but they were maxing the injectors out pretty hard for most of the strip! Capable of soo much more!

Theyve seen less less than 4,000 kms of use i'd estimate.

If no one offers a reasonable amount they'll be refitted to the car.

More specs at :

I'm looking for offers around the $2,500 mark, which is lots less than what i paid not long ago. Call me and lets talk.

Please contact me, preferably ASAP and by phone, coz soon i'll be too tempted to fit them back to my car.

Call, 0402.701.181.

Cheers

Rob

A mate of mine tuned an R33 GTR, which had a pair of these and it managed an impressive 410kw at the wheels with these turbos on 1.8bar. This shows with a few mods these should be the last turbos you'll ever need to buy.

wow thats unreal power! so would these be better than gt2860r with -5 version?

i can vouch for these turbos!

i have a set on my GTR and with a full turbo back exhaust and boost, the car ran 11.7 (on 4 occasions)

good luck with the sale mate - very good price!

cheers Garth

jebus, someone loan me the money. these would be perfect for my RB30/26 engine.

*shakes fist at buying house before finishing engine*

let me know if no one takes em before u refit them to your car, ill try and sell something or beg for money to buy them off you.

cheers

hi mate im not sure how much you paid for these turbos but when i had purchased them 8 months ago i paid $2200...i just looked through ebay and some1 is selling them for $2550 brand new.

but good luck with your sale

Sorry to the people who pm'ed i've been out of town for a few days.

I understand that 2.5k is a little on the exxy side what with the prices these are going for these days. And I'm willing to conceed that obviously its pointless expecting anywhere near the new price, but looking due to the fact that there is absolutlely nothing wrong with these units and added to that, the costs i have to meet to replace them means i could probably only go as low as $2300.

The only reason i'd be selling these is to convert to a single turbo setup and realistically i'm looking at over $4k to purchase what i need.

So I take it on board that $2500 is too much and i'll adjust the pricet to $2300.

Thanks for the replies.

Robbo.

MrFlex the fact that these turbos retail for $2500 a pair has already been noted.. Please read the thread, but thanks for the bump.

Unfortuantly I've decided to keep them, after a few very good offers, Ive decided to keep them anyway. The cost to replace them is just too much for me at the moment, these are good turbos, just a little excessive for what i want at present.

Thanks again to the people who made legitimate offers.

Cheers,

Robbo.

    • What could be causing my clutch problem besides a bad master or slave then? Both those parts are new 
    • Just came across this, but in QLD I start leave again in 2 weeks, if it is still available I might drive up and check it out Unless, @MBS206 do you live near here????, if so I could hit you up with a finders fee https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/hope-island/auto-body-parts/nc-mx5-factory-hard-top/1328976391
    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
