tommis85 Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Hi all, Up for grabs is my full GT30 high mount setup that I ran on my R33 GTR for no more than 2000km. Am selling this setup because I'm now running a set of N1 turbos and no longer need this kit. I would prefer to sell this as one complete setup with pick-up being the preferred option (for obvious reasons!) I'm asking $3000 for the full kit that is guaranteed to fit onto your RB26, clearing strut tower, strut bars, cam covers and front drive train etc. The turbo was only run at 15 pounds and although it doesn't require it, was always idled for 1 minute prior to engine shutdown. Breakup of the prices are below, with original costs in brackets. 1. Garrett GT3076 ball bearing turbo .....$1400 ($1840) 2. Custom built tuned-length manifold with external gate mount.....$900 ($1350) 3. Mandrel bent 3" dump pipe (I have a stainless and mild steel item for you to chose from)..... $100 ($300) 4. Tial Sport waste gate ..... $350 ($455) 5. New Pod filter, air intake pipe, braided oil feed line, oil drain hose, flange plates, dump pipe clamps ..... $250 Feel free to send me a PM or 0413 893 942 if you have any queries at all.

piranha Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Any changes needed to fit R32 gtr? Also, why did you go back to n1s? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/376750-highmount-gt3076-kit-for-rb26/#findComment-6009034 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommis85 Posted September 10, 2011 Author Share Posted September 10, 2011 (edited) Any changes needed to fit R32 gtr? Also, why did you go back to n1s? Piranha, I'm not too sure about how things would fit inside the R32's engine bay. There was plenty room to spare either side of the turbo in my R33. I'm pretty sure that manifold wise and so forth, everything should bolt up. One would really have to check manifold stud spacing just to be certain I've been trying out all sorts of turbo sizes and configurations - so far it seems to be a draw between the N1's and GT30 but can only run one or the other The GT30 came on a bit harder (big single style) while the N1's seem to be more linear.

piranha Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 What rear housing on turbo? Also what power were you making? How was response rpm wise and when did it start to drop off?

tommis85 Posted September 10, 2011 Author Share Posted September 10, 2011 (edited) What rear housing on turbo? Also what power were you making? How was response rpm wise and when did it start to drop off? The rear is .82 I was making 352hp at wheels on a very safe tune at around 1 bar. Just ran out of money at the time to be able to run turbo at it's efficiency which would have been between 18 and 20 pounds, equaling around 400hp at the wheels on a decent tune. Response was actually good for a big turbo....little bit laggy below 3500 but once above that it ramps up hard and doesn't drop off.

tommis85 Posted September 10, 2011 Author Share Posted September 10, 2011 (edited) Here are some photos of the manifold's collector / flange as requested. The flange plate itself measures 108x66.4mm while the stud spacing measures approx 86x44.5mm centre to centre. Hope this helps but please note, I really would prefer to sell this as one full kit as complete as possible. I still have parts left over from my last sale.

tommis85 Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 Ray, here's a hi-res pic of the dint in the underside of one of the runners. The manifold is made from thick-walled mild steel steam pipe and I dare say the area there will be OK. I was running it like this for a couple months.
