Yes it is $1,500 for T3 flange please read the post i replied. It was stated clearly.

and if you read my post, you can see clearly why i re-stated what i was asking. Been mis-quoted on 2 different occasions, different sellers. here is an example of one;

"

ME:

garrett gt3071r, 0.63 exhaust housing, external gate, 4-bolt pattern t3 rear housing

Seller:

............Hi $1,625.00 delivered

Another Person:

Are you 100% sure that is with the T3 housing as the off the shelf GT3071R is 0.64 AR T25/28 style (integral wastegate)

Seller:

.............Thank you for bringing that to my attention, you are absolutely correct , I have now amended my post to gee-180

ME:

wow that is cheap for that spec turbo, hard to get in aus..i will let you know

Seller:

...........Yes, you are correct, it is too cheap. I made an error for which I apologize. The price delivered for your Spec is - AUD$2,370.00

"

don't take offence, but when the price jumps up by $745 on one occasion and $650 on the other, i tried to make sure it didn't happen the 3rd time i just had to make sure.

but if what you are saying is correct for that price and my exact spec, i will be interested in a few days.

thanks

Hi Mate

I am interested in buying a set of the 2860 -5 turbos for my gtr, but I did a serch for the distributor that you named in your first post and it come up with nothing. I searched using both google and www.turbobygarrett.com website.

I dont want to sound rude but I want to make sure that this distributor is legit.

Hi, if you are afraid this is not legit, u can try to PM Cooper who is one of the buyers for the turbo. He has already received the turbos.

Sloutch, I don't mean any disrespect I just want ot make sure that all is above board before I go spending 2 grand.

Can you post a website for the distributor?

Its ok mate...disrespect him all you want...he's used to it... :cheers:

Bought a set of these for my mate. Very good service from sloutch and the US seller :D They took around 10 days to come, from order to delivery.

Thanks very much for the group buy mate, my friend is stoked at saving over $500 compared to the cheapest Aus Distributor.

I can vouch (sp) for sloutch and his distributor (PSI Supply) (check my sig :rofl: ). Quick communication from both parties and were sent quickly. I have just got my car back from having these turbos installed aswell and have no problems. This group buy is 100% legit and people will not get screwed over plus its an awesome saving :)

Still waiting for his write- back :(

Sheng,

Sorry for the late reply. I'm talking with my supplier at the moment. I'll get back to you as soon as i can.

Cheers

Cooper : Hope you're enjoying your new turbos now. :).

Tommo: Hey, tell your mate i'll come up to NSW and he can use that $500 i saved him to give me a treat!! :D

The warranty is with Garret so if there's any problems you can bring it to the garret dealer and use the warranty.

No we don't supply the line kits, you have to purchase them yourself.

There is no minimum or maximum number of people to start ordering in this buy. There's already more than 10 customers from SAU. If i'm not wrong, nobody on SAU or in Australia can beat that price.

keen as for a set of GT2860r's, just need to talk it over with my mechanic this week to work out if i need -5 or -7, i'll hopfully PM you this week to work out paying for a set, to good a deal to pass on.

cheers Johnny

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
