Its people like swiper that keep it all alive and make feel its worthwhile owning an import. I take my hat off to the man. Now i dont feel so bad that a split coolant hose is costing me $800 in labour to replace!!

awesome thread!!

some awesome people on hear that are happy to "get a brother off the bench" and help out a fellow japanese car enthusiast/owner!!!!

good luck in the future! bet ya cant wait to drive HER again mate!! :thumbsup:

frack. For $500, id come past and give it a whirl lol.

Done it before, now i usually replace all the hoses when i pull motors. Saves these bs jobs.

yeah. i had all mine replaced with silicon hoses last month when the head was off the car... been in the position where the 3 hardest to get to hoses have split and required loads of labour to repair... preventative maintenance goes a long way

    • The GTT probably only has the same little bag of tools that the R32 had, which contained useless pliers, a spanner or two, a screwdriver thingo, and the handle and crank stuff for the jack.

    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their proven reliability, predictable performance, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!
