Selling 1 brand new GT30 500HP ballbearing turbo with the smaller 0.63AR exhaust housing for less lag.

These are good up to around 420RWHP and are very responsive for the power offered.

Unit is brand new and still wrapped in the plastic, bought it for a project that is no longer going ahead.

Dont want to loose too much on the thing but will sell for $2300 ONO.

Its just the turbo, but all GT30 are externally gated so it might bolt on to your manifold but you will run unlimited boost and it wont last real long :rofl:

You need a manifold for it and an external gate. I can supply a highmount tune length manifold brand new and a turbosmart 45mm external gate brand new with this turbo for 1800 the pair.

Total is $4100.

Daniel,

Don't want to be very condescending, but these can be bought straight out of Garret for $1900.00 with warranty.

Another concern is!

How do you suggest possible 420rwhp from a 500hp compressor, when it is perceived that a loss of 30% is not uncommon through the drive train

$1900 from Garrett?

R.R.P. on one is approx 2.3k

Most places are more to the 2.4k though.

You can get it TRADE for $2000 or less, but not everyone has access to that.

And i have just got off the phone with Garrett. It's no where near $1900 direct from them.

Much closer to what i said.

on the HP thing, 420rwhp is impossible from a 500 turbo.

350rwhp is far more accurate.

    • As an ex-skyline owner Going off how these things are now "modern classics", I would keep the twins and just "refresh" bits that are required for reliable power and have a car you can take out for a cruise whenever you get the itch As a idiot who cannot leave things alone Going deep into the "rabbit hole" is a easy thing to do, as previously mentioned, once you start it becomes a slippery slope, wirh lots of supporting mods, and possibly rebuilds, and unless you have a bottomless pit of funds, the car can spend most of its life sitting in the garage,  broken, waiting for parts, or building more funds For a classic like a R32 GTR Basically, a reliable OEM+ refresh, that isn't a broken garage queen, is alot better than a car that you build, then break, then fix, then break again And it isn't just the engine you need to worry about, these beasties are getting on in age, and all parts are getting, and have got, expensive, the days of picking up cheap replacement engines and other driveline parts are well and truly over The funds not spent on going a single with quality parts, and with all the other other bits required to make it happen, could be spent on refreshing alot of other parts A wise man once said "If you cannot afford 2 GTR's, you cannot afford 1", I also believe he said this about 20 years ago when you could pick up a clean R32 GTR up for around $20k My advice for a R32 GTR (the one and only true Godzilla in my mind) is to think holistically about the whole car, the body, the power train, the suspension, the brakes, and the driveline SAU is a wealth of knowledge with decades of Skyline experience,  from stock, to OEM+, to modified to varying degrees, to full on or weekend or dedicated racecars, as well as full on money pits that rarely leave their garage Treat the old girl nice and give her what she deserves, you are a lucky man to own such a classic car  
    • For that price you could buy the hypergear turbo (big fan as I run one) and the Haltech ECU..
    • +1 for the Elite 2500. Get some new knock sensors while you are at it (pretty cheap), look up the TAARKS Nissan knock sensor kit. You may also want to get new coils (R35gtr) while your at it (assuming your on stock ones), as they are a liability. Mine started right up and idled fine on the base map. Also go MAP over MAF, as said above, Haltech make this super simple right out the box. Another fanboy of DBW here, Outsider Garage from your neck of the woods make some nice conversion gear for the R33 (that’s where I got some of my gear from).
