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 :)

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

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
