SOLD

I have an R33 GCG turbo for sale in very good condition.

I origionally bought it from a forum member and fitted it up. I was suffering boost creep straight away and thought it must have been the turbo. I bought a brand new GTRS turbo and was having the same issues, and have now narrowed my problem down to dump pipe and lack of tuning for my boost creep issues and not the turbo. So i now have to resell the GCG.

I can guarentee you wont be dissapointed in this purchase as the member who i bought it from had it checked out for me prior to purchase and i also got an opinion and was told the turbo was in great condition. It also ran very well on my car in the low and mid range with very good response until i reached the limiting factors i had against me.

It previously made 320rwhp on 14-15 PSI. With a little more boost you could make a few more ponies yet.

The minimal shaft play that was advertised in the ad from the last member is absolutly nothing to worry about as this is the normal amount you would expect from a brand new turbo and is no more than the new GTRS i have just purchased.

It has been an expensive exersice but have learnt a lot in the meantime. The Mrs bought me the new GTRS so i wouldnt keep pulling my hair out.......i just pulled it out more when i found out the turbos wernt the problem. Still i must thank her for the support she gave me.(she is the best)

I have only had it on the car for a week and will sell it for $1000 with free delivery anywhere in Australia.

Any questions call Simon on 0408 766 268

give you missus a big kiss for me! thats damn good of her aye

turb's is a bit rich for me, but i will just note, try ADVANCING the base ign timing on your car. Like as far as you can before detonation. I bet it fixes your boost problem. (if timing i too retarded the exploding gas goes out the exhaust causing the turbo to sin its face off even with the wastegate open)

cheers

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
