hi

i need any turbo{preferably big} with an external wastegate for under A$100 .

also i am in VIC so i am hoping that someone from VIC could sell it to me as i wont have to spend much on postage

thanx

:confused:

anyone want to sell me an rb26?

i am a student so my budget is around $300. it doesn't have to be modded, just a stock on will do. preferrably with ECU and loom...

:)

sorry, couldn't resist :rofl:

dharvin... your best bet for $100 is an old rb20 turbo which may not be in great condition

for $100 i will give you a free smack in the face

He He He

Anyhow, cause I'm a nice guy I'll give you my stocker 32 turbo for $100, it needs a build, but thats as good as it gets.

I'd like an R34 GTR for around $6000 too :D

helloagain

no i did not forget another zero. its just that i am building a jet engine from a turbo and i am only 16 and that is around how much i can afford at the moment. i also know for a fact that brand new turbos cost in excess of $2000.

:)

sorry but its not going to happen :)

but hey, one day you will be older with a job and money and you can have any sized turbo you want!

best of luck

Warren.

Buy my turbo kit... you'll have the worlds heaviest and fastest rocket.

In any case, ease off fellas he asked a valid question. In any case, if you're after a small cheap turbo, check out some junkyards for industrial vaccumn cleaners (no shit some have turbo's on em) or very old cars and lawnmowers for medium sized (and heavy) ones. Other things to check as donors of larger turbo's... trucks, diesel van's and cars from the late 80's etc. Not exactly the worlds most refined turbo's but a decent housing, a compressor wheel and shaft you will get... enough for you to experiment with.

    • Could someone post some pictures of the factory Jack , tools, spare tire and how they were in a 1998 ER34 2 door skyline originally?
    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their proven reliability, predictable performance, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
