Guys, just to let you know, I had my std t3 highflowed through Dan's contact, all I can say is the quality of the work is outstanding, this guy really knows what he is on about, and Dan went completely out of his way to pick my turbo up, and drop it back within 5 days!! I could not recommend going through Dan enough, top bloke, very trustworthy.

Quick turn around, and the prices are competitive on highflows, but the prices on any GT series garrett can't be beaten I dont think :D

Thanks again Dan.

Yeah, im mistaken. GTRS is for SR engines so at this stage, if i can get the details for the garrett equivalent for the HKSGT2835 Pro S (0.68 A/R)

That turbo has a T3 Exhaust housing flange...I'm pretty sure your car has the T2. Can you confirm this?

Cheers, I did look but must have missed it.

How do I go about ordering one ? I am after the 0.96 rear housing .

When do you expect delivery.

Just tell me you want one and I'll make it happen. Expect delivery within two months. Honeywell are giving everyone the stuff around and have run out of stock. I have a couple of other people waiting on some 35R's and a couple of 30R's also. There is a bit of a longer wait for the 40 and 42R's. I suspect, though, for the price I am offering you would probably be happy to wait. Did you need it right away?

They will be arriving at around 8 weeks time so I'll get them to keep one aside.

OK, on a seperate note, the CATALOGUE has arrived. The rep dropped it out to me today. Now I can tell you all the combos available. They also have intercoolers (bar and plate) that they do.

I don't know prices on these just yet but a rough estimate for a 16" x 10" x 4" with 400% effectiveness and 0.4 psi pressure drop should be about $500. I will have to confirm this ofcourse, if anyone shows interest. They are available in MANY MANY sizes, so just ask if you want to know.

Hey daniel, how are you?

I have a R32 GTS-T and I want to upgrade my turbo, as it sits now its a stock turbo!

I would like to get a hi flowed steel wheel sucker in side! I dont know much about the turbo stuff so ill try to answer your questions!

How much horsepower/kilowatts do you want? 300 bhp

What are you using the car for? street

When do you want boost roughly? 2200/2500 sounds good

Do you want power early or late in the rev range early

What Mods 3" man bent cat back(trust) exhaust, If you can get the bigger front pipe whould be sweet as well! normal cpu, normal intercooler, turbo smart bov..

Obviously,93 R32 GTS-t

Intercooled? standard small sucker

Still running AFM or upgraded or no longer there normal AFM

Custom exhaust manifold or standard. standard

External wastegate or internal(limited to virtually 450hp)? what ever the standard one is

I hope that helped, like the only reason im getting another is cause it should have been rebuilt at 80,000k but now its over 97,000ks .. so i want to get another and it to have more balls and stuff..

what do you think i should get? i have about $1,200 to spend.

thank you so much for your time,

kezza

To get 300bhp you are gonna need a bigger intercooler to start with. Your fuel pump might be ok but when you start pushing it, unless it's bigger than the standard one...it won't handle the task. A highflow is going to probably cost you a smidge more than that but that's not to say much more. It depends on the condition of your existing turbo. All up you would be looking at around $3200 to achieve your 300bhp. You could push your engine with the standard intercooler but with the increased air and probably increased boost, you will quickly destroy your engine. The more you compress the air, the more it heats up...you need to remove that heat, or transfer it as an intercooler does, to prevent your intake temps from increasing dramatically. With the larger quantities of air you also need more fuel and that's where your pump comes in. Sorry to be naggy. I can get your turbo highflowed but I would hate for you to get it done and destroy your beautiful engine.

Hey daniel

Just a quick check for now to see how much money I need to spend

How much horsepower/kilowatts do you want? 300rwkw

What are you using the car for? street/Not driven all that much

When do you want boost roughly? 2200/2500

Do you want power early or late in the rev range (early)

What Mods: Got a intercooler coming in 2 weeks from here http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=68819 , coming as well HKS SSQV bov..

what car: 97 R33

Intercooled? http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=68819

Still running AFM or upgraded or no longer there = stock

Custom exhaust manifold or standard. standard

External wastegate or internal(limited to virtually 450hp)? standard one

Oh sorry bro, i didnt mean that i expect the car to reach 300bhp with just the turbo hi flowed!! 300bhp is what i want to reach when every thing is done!

At this point of time i am doing things to keep the car running tip top!

eg. getting a new clutch, new diff,new split fire coil packs and i need to get the turbo looked at!! I think its in good nick cause it doesnt make any bad noises and it holds 12PSI all the way up to 7grand, but... still, if they are ment to be looked at every 80,000 km and my car has done 97,and a bit . I should get it done!

so do i have to send you my old one to get it done? or what do you think i shoud do?

Daniel,

I've got a 34 gtt with full 3" zorst, pod, bov, apexi avcr boost control, power fc, trust fmic.

I want a bolt on turbo (no mods required for intercooler plumbing or dump either)

Can you give me a price for the HKS GT-RS R34 kit (supposedly comes with all lines and fittings and bolts etc.) or another turbo suggestion. I would like 220rwkw with sensible boost (1 bar) and the provision for more if i uprgrade my fuel system.

Nengun.com has the GTRS turbo for $2800 delivered....

Thanks for your time, Paul

((p.s do you know a chick called sheree with a harlequin r33 '91RLY' - I'm sure last time I spoke to her she reccomended a guy called Daniel to speak to about turbos - I seem to remember she mentioned MR. Turbo..is this anything to do with you???))

To just do a rebuild would be only about $600 but for the steel wheel conversion and all the good internals you would need $1600. This turbo would then be capable of handling 18psi boost and rated at around 430 hp.

Yes you would have to send the turbo to me and it would cost about $18 I think. Maybe cheaper.

Yes I do know Sheree. She is a dancer from memory or used to be I think. Anyway, before I say too much more I would like to state for the record that I don't know her through these channels.

Moving on.....

I have nothing to do with MR Turbo as he $%cked my first one over 4 years ago and it cost me $2000.

I think she might be talking about another Daniel but he probably wasn't as good looking as me or nearly as smart. :wassup:

I'll get back to you on the question above.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
