Is something like this worthwhile?

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/GT35-GT3582R-Slide-Ind-Turbo-Charger-400-600HP-T3-/251018425088?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a71dd3300#ht_5757wt_1113

Seems cheap for what it is..

(if it seems too good to be true, it probably is??)

Cost with that turbo will blow out massively

Ext waste gate

High mount manifold

New dump to suit

New intake to suit

Custom water/oil lines

Get hypergear to highflow your turbo and tell him what your aiming for performance wise

Pretty sure he can get a neo op6 turbo up to about 260awkw

YEah I got a quote for about $960.... with that price, i thought it may be better to just buy a new turbo??

Turbo upgrades always means more money. A hiflow is a pretty sensible way to go to keep costs down but it is always going to cost more than you think.

Hiflow turbo, injectors, AFM, Nistune + tune. (assuming FMIC and 3" exhaust already done).

how big depends on if you think you will go e85 in the future

personally, i'd get the highflow/ss1 and the fuel pump and rock what your tuner feels safe on stock afm and injectors

if you go big injectors you will max out the afm too

Ok sounds like a plan. Don't think I'll be going on e85 anytime soon.. Haven't even seen it in petrol stations yet!!

I remember the tuner last time saying the next steps were "high flow turbo back exhaust, bigger turbo, injectors".... so maybe i'll leave injectors off the list for now and get them to tune and see what they think..

Also, worth getting a BOV while i'm at it?? They seem wanky, but have some benefits I read

Leave the stock BOV. There is no performance to be gained buying a new one.

If you want to get the most out of the turbo upgrade buy the injectors and the Z32 AFM. You will pay for tuning twice when you eventually upgrade them.

If you are sticking with stock injectors and afm just run the stock turbo to 12psi with a good tune and it will do the job perfectly well and make around 200rwkw +/- 10kw.

Well to be honest, I have the NISTUNE with stock everything and 12psi boost... Only making 175kw :(

3" dump and a 5" bodied cat (Venom??) and re-tune should be 200rwkw give or take.

Yeah they were both on my shopping list... I'll do those first then and see how she goes... :)

Not sure whether I'll have clearance for the 5" cat, may have to go 4"....

      I've watched some vids and the technique seems to be to butt the sheets up to one another and use MIG to spot weld and slowly fill in the spots until its eventually all sealed. No runs as you would normally do, as there's too much heat generated that way. Yeah my stick welds are terrible these days because its been so long since i've done any of it. I expect to be spending many hours practicing

      I have personally seen a Tomei USA RB26 cam that didn't even fit the head. Kind of nuts to me that it was even possible for that to happen but such is life.  There's two UP Garages in the US. One is a US branch of the Japanese company which sells things they brought over at tremendous markup. The other is University Place Garage/Fairlady Motors which is a shop best known for putting VCAM in RBs and trying to convince people to stop putting in 800hp of turbo on a 2.5L motor.

      Gasless MIG is not exactly suited to what I would call "delicate" or "attractive" welding. So I would rule it out for sheet metal rust repair type stuff, unless you're only doing it in hidden places. I'm thinking about getting myself a gasless MIG for "hack together" type work. Noting that my welding experience is very very low, and quite a long time ago. So I'm also looking for "simple", but I'm not expecting "excellent". I'm not even sure that proper MIG is the best for sheet metal work. I get the feeling that the degree of control and the minimisation of heat input that you get from TIG is probably what you really want. And then you have to get good at doing it before the welds won't look like a monkey flinging a handful of shit anyway. You're probably SOL for an easy and cheap way to get from where you are to where you want to be. Much like myself.

      Any recommendations for what would be the easiest welding type to start on, for sheet metal rust repairs and maybe some exhaust piping too? Seems like MIG is the most common. Would gasless MIG be ok to learn on and do some simple jobs? I have a stick welder which has a Lift TIG setting, but i'm more interested in getting whatever's easiest to do, and most suitable, rather than using what i have.
