GCG highflow is around 1700-1800. not sure bout hypergear. maybe get highflow and ecu and run on the limits of the AFM until you have the coin to get a Z32 and injectors as AFM will run out of legs before the injectors

For $2000-$3000 - No.

Injectors are $700-800, ECU + tune is at least $1500.

$2300 before you even start with the turbo, fitting, new dump etc. Then comes the clutch and everything else.

You need at least 5k realistically maybe more.

For 2~3 Grand you can get a GT3076R in the new nissan 6 bolt housing. (I think they were for $2300). Or get hypergear to do your high flow, they can make your stockie to pump 300rwkws+. Check their thread out.

Not one supporting mod listed there. What good is a turbo if you have no other parts to make use of it?

As i said - its a good 5k adventure.

I had a look at that, and was wondering how it fit, as as far as im aware, the GT30R needs a 10mm spacer to clear everything on an RB20/25 with a stock manifold.

How'd they get around that one?

Mine was a factory OP6 high flow, every thing bolted back the way it was. the 300rwkws+ high flow I referred to was the so called "pu high flow" which comes with a .82 OEM pattened turbine end. From photos all it needed was a oil feeding line like all their other high flows. It runs on factory comp housing so I guess spacer is not needed. Have a read in their thread, lots of information:

Whilst it makes 300rwkw, the power band is not that of say a GT30 which has a good 1000rpm extra to play with.

Horses for courses i guess and many factors one must consider when purchasing a turbo.

Yeah a turbo might make "X" power, but the real point is just how it makes that power. Is it responsive, how much RPM do you have to work with etc.

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By latino_R35 · Posted

      Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
