Have a GCG highflow turbo for sale. Bought it second hand a few months ago but wasnt on the car for long at all. I was running 1bar boost for everyday driving and until i could get a new clutch as mine would slip with more boost. These turbos are perfect for skylines in my opinion as they make around 270kw on a rb25 and are very responsive. GCG are the best turbo company in australia and have a very good reputation when it comes to highflowing turbos. The bearings in this one have gone because i let the oil get a bit too low. It was never completely starved of oil but just didnt have the right pressure for a few seconds which is all it needed. Also because the bearings are gone the shaft has a bit of play and the front fin has been skimming the front housing. I called GCG and they said it needs new bearings ($600 or less from MTQ etc) and possibly a new front blade which are reasonably cheap. They bolt directly onto any rb20 or rb25 and sock lines can be used. It has the 0P6 rear housing off a r34 turbo and front housing of an rb20 for high top end and response. The housings are bored out and a ball bearing core is installed with bigger steel wheels which result in around 270kw and can run 20psi safely. The plate on the side of the turbo has the serial number etc which can be quoted to GCG if you would like any more information.

If you have any questions ill try my best to answer them.

I can post it or can be picked up from camberwell, vic

These are $2000 new plus a stock turbo so im after $500 or nearest offer. This will include the turbo elbow and an actuator.

I got told around 150 but thats not an official quote. Either way still a cheap GCG after its fixed. I cant afford to get it fixed at the moment as i need a clutch and have no money.

Nah sorry i dont have a dyno graph. Have a look at the first post on this page though:

Makes 18psi at 3900RPM but thats with the rb25 rear housing. This one has OP6 so will be bit more laggy with more top end air flow / power.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I have always resisted the urge to go silly. 8" wide wheels and street friendly spring rates? Check. (Let's not talk about the steadily increasing spread of spherical joints across my suspension!!) Stock turbo, run at 12 psi? Check. Lasted for ?10 years before it died. Highflow put on rather than seizing the opportunity to go G45. You don't need 300 rwkW, let alone the more massive numbers that seem to be essential these days, to have a car that is already way too powerful and fast for a streeter. ~250rwkW is fine. I've never exceeded 200, although I will sneak up above it if and when I manage to get my finger out and do what needs to be done to use the highflow's capacity. You don't need $10k worth of CF bits glued onto the outside. You don't need razor sharp ankle cutting front splitters. You don't need the car to be 2" off the ground. You don't need flawless paint, mirror finished wheels, brand new indicator lenses, etc etc. All these things just make the car impractical and will cause you pain when they get damaged, which is inevitable for a street car. A few nice additions are good. Good seats are good. A nice stereo is good. A/C is good! (46° on the road yesterday and my A/C is degassed again. Was moderately traumatic driving home!) The main reason I stick with a mildly modified old Skyline is that I have had it for  >25 years, the mods are the rolling result of 25 years of things dying and being upgraded opportunistically, coupled with a few "just 'coz" ones. And I hate modern almost all cars. If I was a young buck starting out now.... I wouldn't bother. Cars have a few years left where there is any possibility of interest or fun. Thereafter there will be no such thing allowed or possible. Any time, money and effort spent now on a project would just be a waste.

      Wont start unless i have the pedal to the floor

      Let's be wary though, if cranking is so far off, what else isn't set right? Are the dead times set right, voltage compensation etc?   It definitely sounds like it's cranking fuel issues, and holding flat to the floor is shutting them down, but I'm with Duncan that if nothing was changed in the ECU at all, and then this started, I'd be more thinking a leaking injector.   Do as Duncan said, drop the oil and make sure it's not full of fuel.

      Yeah if the goal is to drive something then modifying a car is a bad idea.
