  1. Hi guys, man its been a while since i've updated this. Took the R32 down to the tuners to finish off my piping and any other loose ends that i may have missed. so just a matter of time till i see the dyno results and stuff. in the mean time, heres the booklet Eji takada sent me (Owner of mambatek). it included the balancing sheet and a sticker. Not sure what the balancing sheet means. If anyone wants to tell me what it means then please by all means.
  2. hey guys. Sorry been really busy at work and havent been able to follow my own thread haha. getting the turbo studs for the manifold this weekend most likely. then just need intercooler piping made up and my dump pipe and shes all ready for a tune. thanks for all the support, glad your all ready to see my rb20 blow up haha. but im excited to also see the dyno results. should be hitting the dyno in a few weeks as i need to tweak a few things and make up a bracket to fit my fuel rail. waiting for new braided lines as there was a miscommunication about the sizes, but he sent them out to me free of charge (i just had to cover postage, which is fair enough since it was my mistake). gotta get some push lock fuel line fittings too. will keep all of you up to date with results.
  3. So i recently ordered a GTX3071R Turbo kit from Mambatek on eBay Price: $1200 The kit came with: Mambatek GTX3071R (dual ball bearing, water and oil cooled) Braided line kit (Oil in, Oil Out, Both water lines) Braided line banjo fittings and nipples Metal Exhaust Mani Gasket Vband clamp and flanges The quality was mint when i pulled it out of the box. Spun perfectly, no shaft play what so ever. Came with a balance sheet from "Schnek" (have to check spelling on that one). Mocked it up today on my D1 Stable Steam Pipe High Mount Manifold. It sat great. looks great. excited to see what numbers it pulls from the tune. I've been talking to the owner of mambatek on facebook, and will be putting up a dyno run later. tbh, build quality seems even better than the kinugawas. will keep you all posted with dyno results.
  4. I havent gotten any information on a dyno run as of yet. but i've been having a chat to him and apparently he had a problem in the company with a partner stealing parts to sell outside the company he says hes planning to make this company and quality better than kinugawa, the corespec is the same as a garrett turbo, while they use a NTN cermanic ball bearing system instead of the steel ball bearing. seems ok, might invest in it, if its as good as kinugawa turbos im probably gonna try one. they have warrenty. and its going on an rb20, which atleast if it pops it wont cost my much to replace.
  5. hey guys i emailed the owner to get some more information. heres what i recieved Hi, Yes. I was forced to sell kinugawa / kamak months ago and run a new brand MAMBA now. All the mamba turbo core will be balanced on our SCHENCK MBRS 110 and balance sheet will go with this turbo. Here is some information one of my customer left on his facebook when he received MAMBA turbo. That might be easier for you to know more mamba. https://www.facebook.com/andrew.holloway.9256?fref=photo anyway, let me know if there is anything we can help. Thanks. Regards Eiji Takada
  6. if they are the same quality as kinugawa turbos, we may have a winner. being $400-$600 cheaper than garrett. still, i'd like to know if anyone has acutally used one yet before i go forking out 1k to get one. anyone else have more information on em?
  7. id like to see how they go. if anyone gets one of these lemme know how they run. im interested to see if they run as well as kinugawa turbos run. being ball bearing and affordable im really keen to try one on my rb20
  8. Hey guys, ive been searching around for a new turbo for my rb20. doing lots of research and everything trying to find an affordable good working one. or just gonna suck it up and go with a garrett 3071 i've been trolling through ebay for the last couple of weeks. been seeing a fair few "mamba GTX3071r" turbos. Now im 100% sure they are garrett copies. but from what i've read so far (which isnt much) is that they are made by a main guy who left kinugawa and started to make these. their website "mambatek.com" doesnt work. but their shop does via their facebook. now i've seen kinugawa turbos pull some pretty decent numbers, and also cop some serious hate. But the numbers dont lie. https://www.facebook.com/MAMBATEK?ref=ts&fref=ts - their facebook http://www.shop.mambatek.com/ - their shop I dunno what to think about them. atm i'll probably just suck it up and go with a garrett but for future reference and for other people i think these should be looked into. they are manufactured in taiwan from what i've seen. they say they are "high quality" Link to a 3071r - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Mamba-Ball-Bearing-Billet-Turbocharger-3-GTX3071R-w-A-R-64-T3-V-Band-Hsg-/171573754324?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item27f297b9d4 Anyone used these before? or seen them blow up? or even just heard about them? cant find any videos and i've found 1 thread on them so far which comprised of about 3 comments on hardtuned.com
