up for sale is a stock turbo for a r33gtst that has been hi flowed by gcg, was told by gcg that it is rated to 450hp. on my r33 it made 238kw at 14psi (power fc, frountmount, exhaust). the turbo is in need of a service, the compressor and exhaust wheels are in good condition no chips but i think the seals are leaking as i was getting oil in my intercooler and the car was blowing a bit of smoke (have fitted a stock turbo and this problem has stopped). has small amount of shaft play. open to offers at this stage not sure what its worth maybe around the 600 mark. i am in the campbelltown area pm or call me brad 0433527876. cheers.

you dont need to upgrade the cams but i would recommend an after market computer ie power fc, EMS, etc. also a good idea to have a frountmount and an upgraded fuel pump i was running a walbro in tank pump and that was fine . without these mods you run the risk of detonation and engine failure.

    • He made that comment in my thread - In my case the vents ARE to lower engine heat, when the car is not moving, which is the only scenario I have heat problems with the aircon on, sitting in traffic, on 40C+ days. I can't imagine a scenario that this NC needs any at this point in time. I do not know if it will actually make my cooling when the car is MOVING worse, and I sincerely hope that won't be the case. If it does, well, um, f**k.
    • Nice, thanks. Thats why I was asking, there'd been a fair bit of discussion in the E90 world about vents and where it makes sense to put one (ie, over the filters is not great as that is inline or slightly behind the struts and in higher pressure area). I struggle with air flow and pressures. It sill weirds me out that a radiator in the boot can work. 
    • Neither really Vents, when located in the right place, will lower the engine bay "pressure", as air has a path to escape, thus lowering the engine bay pressure, thus.....improving the efficiency on the coolant stack (read: IC, condenser, radiator) This is why the Blits vented bonnet on my 33 worked so well, the vent was in the front 1/3 of the bonnet, which put it right after the radiator  If the vents are to far back toward the windscreen, which is a high pressure zone, it can actually force air into the engine bay, causing higher pressure and effectively loosing efficiency on the cooling stack, like the fab of raising the rear of the bonnet, which does allow heat to escape, but only when the car isn't moving  There's heaps of cool "fluid dynamics" info out there, but, I'll attach a video of a 'Merican joint that focuses on "Miatas" as I found it when looking into vents for mine, they explain it way better than me  
    • Poor bleeding. That stupid damping loop in the plumbing that should be completely replaced with a braided hose. Just the first 2 that come to mind.
    • Forgive the potentially silly question but are the vents for bay temps? I've been toying with how to reduce my bay temps because man, it gets HOT in there and a small subtle vent somewhere I think might help. Or, maybe they're to assist with just the intake temps?
