It makes me look silly too. I threw a lot of money at the last car. This one will hopefully owe me less than 12k by the time the turbo engine goes in and the suspension is sorted to suit the extra weight up front.

But i have a bad habit of spending all my money on cars....

    • Thanks gents, I think I'll get a PSR and see how it goes. I saw an interesting video in YT where a guy stripped one and the bearings were similar to the GTX series instead of the newer G series, but for 40% of the Garrett price I suppose there has to be some sort of trade off!
    • My opinion is they aren't worth double at all.  Have used a good number of Pulsars with builds I've been involved with and tbh at least speaking for myself, Garrett aren't losing money they'd be getting if Pulsar didn't exist as for genuine Garrett money I'd probably be buying something other than Garrett.    We've used Pulsar 6262G (G35 900 equivalent) on an RB26 with a twin scroll hotside and it picked up 40wkw at the same boost over the old twin -5s and the improvement in transient response over the twins changed the car - this is before you factor in the amount of further headroom of the G35.  Have also used one on a 2JZ drag car which has run 9.6 @ 141mph not even trying, from what we've seen so far it'll potentially go 8s when we turn it up  Crazy results for what is basically a NZ$1500ish turbo.  
    • Mate i've used PSR turbos for years now and have never had an issue with them, the wheels measure the same as the real thing and i've seen them make the exact same power on the dyno pretty much back to back. Its upto you whether you'd want to spend the extra cash.
    • Sorry to change topics here, but does anyone know where to get the O-ring for the radiator drain plug?  I want to change the coolant this weekend but the manual says we should not reuse the radiator drain plug O-ring again? I did some Google search and is now getting bombarded with ads for a radiator drain plug kit 🤣 is that the O-ring? (posted pic of said ad) PS: @PranK Looks like I just needed a higher rank to post pics! It works now 🙌🏾
    • more new rubbers and to add to the mix  also new bolts for the center garnish and pretty much all done, the alarm is being replaced and I’ll deal with that ugliness when that happens
