  1. Yer I did look at that, looks heaps better. I couldn't see it had a divided T4 rear option and likely land $5.5-$6k aud. The G40 is on sale at the moment for $4k flat.
  2. @Lithium looking for a turbo for my Rb30. Want to make sure I understand this correctly. If I want to stay 40psi or under my best choice of these 3 is actually the smaller G40-1150 ?
  3. hrmmm , not mine , easter plans to pull engine not happening
  4. Given you already have the engine cross member to match and likely gearbox mount to. The SR20 has a head start on the RB in this case. They handle GREAT with an SR20, lots of fun. One I did back in the day
  5. Realised I never posted this , also I never got a price
  6. https://www.nengun.com/hks/valcon-rb26-v-cam-system no controller but most will use ECU to control anyhow
  7. Very happy with mine and I think you will be hard pressed to find someone that isn't happy after installing. Is it the best value for money vs other mods (eg 2.8 stroker) hard to say. If you are building an all out power motor above 1000hp+++, it's probably not for you as you will want bigger cams.
  8. Tried them, they leaked. I also foolishly bought some random rubber ones that leaked too. Genuine and not looked back. As always though sample size of one, and I could have made a mistake installing them.
  9. these guys recommended to me and supplied custom 4 inch mufflers, couldn't be happier. They will spec a muffler to your preferred level of sound and know RB's well. https://spmufflers.com.au/
  10. I didn't like the sound of mine, much happier once it was out. Lost it's RB note. Don't judge just my opinion though, be good to hear from others.
  11. I had a 3inch varex mid muffler with a rear cannon. It was quieter closed but it wasn't enough to pass a DB test which are very strict. Still needed a silencer as well. So they do work but they are also not magic.
  12. Hi mate, i tried to send you a message, not sure if it worked 

  13. Keen to see the turbosmart data, to date I've only seen negative things in terms of response for them. Very small sample size though. Hawkins is a big advocate in his videos of the larger rear housings. I managed to make similar power with a lower spec motor on the smaller .8 rear, keeping decentish spool. The people he works with now are big power cars compared to mine though, mine really is setup to drive around and enjoy. I don't have any back pressure monitoring though, so couldn't say if its good or bad on my car, just that it does what I want it to do. Future I want a higher compression more cubes motor to give a bit more bottom end and hopefully the new g35-1150 gets me to the 850 rear comfortably. But maybe I won't due to exhaust back pressure.
  14. It's funny , you look at the 1050 and see horror and I see win, 90 @ 20psi for a 68mm wheels seems great to me. But I don't know crap about this stuff. Happy to hear why you'd make another choice, if you can dumb it down for me What I do know is my Garrett's have been insane levels of reliable whilst others have had to have precision and xona rebuilt and I use mine WAY WAY more then they do. I have a GT3582R from 2005 that is still going rock solid. My G35 hasn't missed a beat either and I was one of the first to get one, it gets a lot of use too.
  15. I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ? https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf
