What is needed for an external wastegate

[Cubes]

What actually went on the turbo? Bearings or the ceramic exhaust wheel?

Best bet is to get it on a Dyno to make sure there is zero detonation and the af's are ok all the way through the rev range.

Run decent fuel (98RON) not just normal premium.

Detonation will kill turbo's just as easily as it will kill ring lands.

GT30's and GT35's generally are around $1900.

Be carefull to ensure the GT30 500hp really is what it is supposed to be.

um i got some tests done and they said that it was just the selas in the turbo that are blown everything else is good..

[Cubes]

I think I remember the thread you started quite some time ago.

If it was the seals.. Thats just bad luck.

[R33_KRAZY]

yeah..i think it was just bad luck but hey wat can ya do..!! besides replace it...

[R33_KRAZY]

so u definatly just think i should replace it with a stock turbo...an save my dollars 4 a power fc an a tune..

[Cubes]

No FMIC?

Get that first. Buy a kit and fiddle around fitting it. Learn about your car.

Its rewarding.

Then when you do get the PowerFC it will make ~190rwkw, if you can drive you will pull you a mid to low 13sec 1/4. Some have even ran 12.9's.

Thats pretty quick when you consider you don't have 4wd to help you off the line

[R33_KRAZY]

ohh, i wanna run an 11:89 like my bro in his 600HP commodore...

[Cubes]

He's running slicks I bet!

300rwkw with slicks in a GTST pulls a low to mid 11sec.

And it can be daily driven with decent fuel economy.

[R33_KRAZY]

nope street tyres...235's at that....

but thats a v8 with a 3 speed tricked out auto behind it

full street trim street registered VN SS comodore with a 308 in it...

i hate hime 4 it

[Cubes]

Shiet.. Not bad. Lots of wheel spin I bet.

Do you know the TS and 60ft?

[R33_KRAZY]

nah he ran it 3 weeks ago at willowbank at the street meet....an yeah LOTS of wheel spin....its the only car i have ever been in were u kan be doing 70km an put da foot flat and it still smokes them...lol very scary

if ne1 was there it was the gunmetal grey with a pink pearl VN... laid a quarter track burnout b4 the run...lol show off

[Cubes]

Gotta luv the sound of a nice V8.

Reason I sold mine is I wanted decent fuel economy and drivability.

I am a poor Uni student so I haven't got the money for another car to run about in.

[R33_KRAZY]

yeah it sounds absolutly AWSOME....twin 3" exaust fuel injected 308 stroked to 350...MASSIVE cams...87k spent on the motor all up...an the cheeky bugger got

it 4 18,000 cause they guy was going bust....made me very mad..

but yeah i wanted good fuel economy aswell an i jus luv the look of a skyline...

thats y i choose mine instead of sum tough V8

[JimX]

ohh yeah ill tell be honest..i got offered a 500Hp garrett turbo that need an external wastegate for $400 brand spanking new neva been used an still in the box.. just want 2 see if i kan afford 2 do the whole setup properly...thats y i just need 2 know but modding the manifold or gettin a second hand stainless steel one 2 suit...

Don't buy stolen parts. It makes you no better than the thief. Plus you will have no right to whinge if your car ever gets stolen.

[Bl4cK32]

I know you didn't say it was stolen, but bollocks if it's not. Hang on, "they" are cheap? He has a case full of them? If you are still naive enough to seriously believe they aren't stolen then you're, well, naive.

What goes around comes around.

You might think you got a good deal on hot stuff, then when it happenes to you what will you say?
