QQQQ, I garantee this turbo is not a Chinese Turbo, infact I purchased it direct from Garrett in the USA. The writing in the front cover has been sanded off for a smooth polished finish.

Here is a photo of it before the polishing.

The polishing was done by a friend of mine who polishes show cars and bikes as a full time job for a living!

I am open to offers however I have already been offered $1800 but looking at a little bit more.

This turbo is worth $3000 trade price + $200 for this show polish!

Cheers

Sam

Well put it this way, i have a frined of mine here is Brisbane in a Datsun wagon that has an internally stock (just forged pistons and rods) SR20DET .

He has a GT42 Compressor with a GT40 turbine, he at full boost (25psi) by 4600rpm

So i dare say that the extra air flow and 600cc capacity of the RB26 would counteract the smaller exhaust turbine. I would expect similar results.

Thanks for the bump.

Guys I need to sell this turbo as I have already purchased a replacment.

Here is what i am offering.

Hey for $2085 I'll do:

1. GT42 Turbo ($3050)

2. Show Polished Front Cover ($200)

3. Postage to you ($30-50)

4. 5" SS USA made exhaust V-Band ($130)

5. 5" SS 15cm Long flared pipe to suit above V-band and Turbo.

So for what i paid $3500 for new you get for $2085 new unused.

Here are some more pictures to put it in perspective, i don't think people understand just how big it is.

Rear dump pipe comparrison with a AA battery. Note the rear wheel is 88mm so its looks much smaller there due to perspective.

Front polished cover (batteries not included) Comes free with a book on "how not to suck up pedestrians"

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
