I might order one of these tomorow what yas think of price and size I don't care about lag

Do not buy that one.

If you are going down the route of a GT3076 then you will need a T3 flanged (not T25 SR20 type exhaust flange).

I would sit down and have a really good think about what you want out of a turbo before acting as you will save money in the long run by thinking it through.

I am not a fan of the turbine housings that bolt up to the stock dumps as I have never seen them allow the full potential of a 76mm compressor.

If you go down the path of a complete Garrett unit then you need to consider dump, oil/water lines, intake changes and you will need new injectors even with the correct HPIAB GT3076 with T3 flange there are still issues with oil/water line and intake changes.

If you're thinking of that exact one in the link, then don't do it. It's in a T25 flange and is made to fit SR engines.

Look for one that is in T3 flange :D

Edit: Dammit, beaten :)

i no its not that one i need but morrie at from that place says he has the one for rbs and the oil n water lines arnt much of a hassle. and im doin the exuast to suit so that doesnt matter.

i was gona get him to fit it so he can deal with it but now i have the motor striped down i was gona do it myself and just give it to him to tune.

i want to spend about $1600 to $1800max just on turbo.

if yas wana thro ya sugestions down go for it. just remember lag doesnt bother me, so must be in the 30s

Trying to pay mortgage on one wage at moment so budget isn't looking good for injectors.

Has anyone got sum of that metal paste stuff I can steal so I don't have to buy a $50 tin of it?

You won't need the afm if you don't change the injectors. Save the money for your turbo - total installation costs will be more with bits and pieces. Also I think fuel pump will cost more than $150 and afm will be $300.

Just do the turbo and fuel pump for now. What are you using for boost control?

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
