hi guys.. :)

just like the title says...

are there any O.E. turbos of other cars that will bolt on to an RB26??

i want to get rid of the ceramic-cursed stock turbos, but i dont got the funds for some after market turbos right now!

i think its something alot of people would be intersted in...

thanx for the help in advance :(

My suggestion is to have the turbos rebuilt with steel turbines. If you choose the N1 spec turbine and compressor and have them fully serviced, you will get your money back easy when you sell them.

well, over here, its almost impossible to find someone to rebuild them, so thats a no :cheers:

on the other hand, almost every turbo of other cars is available, cheap.. thats why i wanted to know if any thing would bolt on easy???

My suggestion for a guaranteed result is to take them off the car put them in a box and send them to GCG. They will N1 spec them and service them and send them back within 10 days.

www.gcg.com.au

I have no other suggestion for a guaranteed result. :wavey:

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By R3N3 · Posted

      Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..

      Does 98ron contain ethanol?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.

      Will I Need A Retune After Cahanging My Catalytic Converter ?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
