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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Hi all, just letting you know that the manifold is getting fixed this week. The entire dinted runner is getting removed with a new one being put in place. Please let me know if you're interested, cheers!

Hi all,

Here are some pics of the repaired manifold now ready to be mounted on a 26 out there! Dented runner has been replaced with a new bit, cleaned and repainted. Will throw in collector side studs, gasket and nuts.

Will post to anywhere in Australia as per other parts that have been sold already.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
