  1. If this car has a genuine 66k on it, I would expect next to no wear on things like the steering wheel , seat bolsters, carpet around foot rest, gear knob and boot, handbrake leather, engine should look spotless and whole car mechanically flawless. If there is visible wear on any of the above, I call bullshit. I bought my 33 gtst last year. The cluster showed 58k km and the seller was adamant it was genuine. I quickly looked the car over and pointed out to the owner some wear on some of the above items. I told him that based on that I would estimate the car had closer to 160k on it. Still fairly low for age. Long story short, I comp tested it and got 170psi across all pots and ended up buying the car for 10k incl rwc which is quite pricey for a 33 gtst. The previous owner had a complete history since he owned the car and receipts totalling over 13k for mostly cosmetics and maintenance items, mechanically was stock and in fantastic shape. The point is, I knew what i was buying and bought on condition rather than what the alleged kms where. If the 33 your looking at is really that good then keep talking to the dealer and negotiate a better price. That has to be the highest priced 33 I have seen for a long time. If it doesnt work out, there is plenty of other 33's out there. My 2c. Good luck.
  2. If the turbo isn't rooted, why would anyone sell it to you for $200.
  3. LSA conversion = torque monster. Just do it.
  4. The bloke who posted above has probably done more testing and development on rb25 turbos over the years than just about anyone. I would listen to his advice if I was you.
  5. Blow off blokes? That's disgusting mate.
  6. Its sounds like a bastardized mongrel turbo. You could buy it waste a few hours putting it on and tuning $ and then let us all know if it works out. I'm with Ben, hg highflow bolt on. Its proven and u know what your getting. But up to you.
  7. Ffs u blokes r all missing the point here. Who gives a shit what brand coils he bought. A dose pipe will cure all misfire issues. That is my new recommendation for these type of threads. Should of bought a dose pipe.That is all.
  8. So theres nothing 2510 about it. Its a 3071 machined into a 2510 front cover. How many $ is said turbo.
  9. You may as well leave stock turbo instead of that.
  10. As said it is too small. It would probably make 210rwkw max if your lucky. A hg high flow will make an easy 250rwkw on 98 fuel with full boost around 3400-3500 rpm.
  11. Ben beat me to it. That is a rip off dude. R33's are the least desirable as there is so many around. Plenty of other fish in the sea. Would not bang.
