Hey guys!

So, I have an RB25 R32 GTST - it's been a pretty solid car, however, it's had a problem with boost creep since I replaced the turbo due to the stock one dying. The turbo I got is an ebay one (save your flaming) and has been good for the last 15,000kms. However, as you can imagine, not being able to top out gears 2 and up is kind of annoying :P Before you ask, the reason I've put up with it for so long is because I know the effort I went through to swap out the turbo and I realllly didn't wanna do it again :P

Now the time has come and I'm sick of not being able to use my car the way it's supposed to! So, to the point, can anyone recommend a place in Sydney who can pull the turbo, port the wastegate and put it all back together? Looking for cheap :P

Any other input is welcome as well.

Cheers!

Josh.

And now the cheap turbo starts costing you more than the Hypergear. Lesson learned. :P

My suggestion, buy some tools and learn for yourself. It's not that hard.

Yeah, but at the time my turbo died I was poor and needed my car on the road, so a dirty eBay unit was the trick! In my defence, it HAS done wwhat I wanted it to do, which was get me back on the road, and in fact, it seems to be a really nice turbo.

Also, to note, I KNOW how to do it, I put the replacement turbo in myself. However, circumstances have changed and I have sweet f**k all tools at my disposal and where I park my car has almost no working space, with cars parked either side. Therefore, doing it myself would be too much of a PITA, not to mention the cost of tools will probably be close to what I'd pay for someone to do it anyway :P

So as much as I appreciate the comments, still looking for someone who knows someone in Sydney to do this for me ;)

Orrrrrrrrrrrrrrr lend me a shed full of tools and a space to work for a day :P Preferably the above option first!
