great turbos, only difference between this and the garrett GT35/40 1.06 rear is the *slightly* smaller compressor wheel and different A/R on the thing. with a GT40 compressor though, it's not really an issue, they're capable of big airflow!

Yes turbo is for sale. The only difference between this turbo and an aftermarket GT35R (GT3540) is the smaller A/R compressor housing. The wheels are identical and are not smaller.

Please don't post rumours or unvalidated facts as this is what led me to purchasing one of these turbos in the first place .... to find out it is exactly the same wheel sizes. Hence why it's too big for my purposes.

Hi,

It looks like a really nice turbo. Im after something that will bolt on and offer more power.

What kind of applications will it suit?

How laggy will it be on a rb25?

What power output is it capable of?

My car has excedy clutch, blitz ic, full exhaust, pod, power fc and blitz ebc.

So once I upgrade my turbo I will need to get a z32 afm and a fuel pressure reg or better injectors.

Thanks

Mark

If you look up on www.turbofast.com.au you can see that they rate this size turbo and exhaust housing at 700hp.

Fatz(Pete) has one on his RB26, I think he posted it makes full boost in the late 4xxxrpm?

If using it on an RB25 I would strongly recommend cams, AFM, injectors, intercooler etc. It should make an easy 300rwkw+.

Thankyou for your reply :P

I think this turbo could possibly be too big for my needs, Im after something that will make full boost in the late 3xxxrpm's and make mid to high 2xx kw range.

Sorry if I have inconvenienced you at all.

P.S Would you know of something suitable at a similar price???

Thankyou

Mark

just going on what the garrett supplier told me when he measured the wheels. the one he measured was definately smaller than the standard GT40 compressor wheel but not by much. maybe there's different revisions of the ford turbo out there? :P

good turbos

abit laggy however i found mine had a echaust leak that i will finally be fixed theis week will report back if theboost resonse increases

these turbos are making 400rwkw on other cars

pete

Will check to see if the lines are the same diameter and thread, it's just a Garrett GT30 core so it should be similar. Not sure about the dump pipe, there might be a couple of companies offering the dump to suit Ford which may be similar.

Should be more than capable of making 300kw @ all 4 wheels, if there are already people making 400 in rwd mode then 300 @ awd would be a shoe in.

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
