Evening,

Slightly off topic, though I’m looking to get EBC soon, and dun wanna pop my zhuast wheels into the cat. Does anyone know any good places to get em rebuilt with steel wheels? Maybe even a front wheel change? A place here in Cbr quoted me 2000 just for the wheel change!?! Surely not.

Any help would be appreciated

PS - What boost do ppl run with the ceramic wheels? I was thinking 10 would be safe?

Dyna Torque here in sydney can do just about anything for you. A complete rebuild, steel wheels, 360degreee bearing etc should be about $2000 roughly.

Most ppl on here reckon 14psi max with stock ceramic turbo's.

Cheers!

Though I was thinking it'd be closer to the 1G mark for just the steel wheel, and balance; could I get away with just that? Its done 87K Km's.

I heard 14-15 pounds is the limit'ish, though has anyone here run that amount for a long time / constantly?

Thanks all

Mine let go on 12psi boost... depends on how "fatigued" the bonding material is I guess...

In Canberra the only place I would trust for a rebuild would be Cooma Diesel out in Fyshwick. When mine let go, they wanted roughly $2000 for a rebuild as mentioned above ($960 per turbo I think it was). Decided to spend some extra cash and get HKS GT2530's, never looked back since :)

12 pounds? Shiiite. Mmm, yeah that’s the conclusion Iv come to, save for 2530's. Where did you pick yours up from? As the cheapest iv seen is 4G +!

Which 2530's fit the stock manifolds?

Thanks man

I agree, go a set of GT 2530's. I was looking at getting my stockers steel wheeled from GCG, but it was only a couple of hundred difference to get the 2530's.

You can buy the GT2530's for GTR almost anywhere, just make sure you get the kit for the GTR.

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
