  1. MODEL: R32 gts

    ENGINE: RB20DE

    Mods/ parts: R32 gts ecu and injectors.

    EBay intercooler kit. S1 rb25 turbo. Pod filter.

    BOOST: 12PSI

    FUEL: mostly 98 unleaded.

    Standard 92 in country tassie when times are tough lot.

    Power: don't know but beats modified V8 commodores and wrx's at powercruise.

    Other notes: have now done 30,000kms thrashing the fu#k out of the old girl. Held back on posting a review for a couple of years because I don't want to give bad advice to people.

    It's now been tested and all I can say is that a turbo setup on a Na with a standard turbo ecu with turbo injectors has the same reliability as a standard turbo engine.

    Will try to get to a dyno soon.

    cost: approx. $1000

    (turbo,manifold, water and oil lines) $400

    (ecu and injectors) $200

    (exhaust downpipe, custom intake) $300

    (other sh#t) $100

  2. I done pretty much the same conversion but using an s14 diff. You need to use your old 4 bolt back cover and use r33 /s14 front mount bolts or buy longer bolts for the front mounts as the non bush types are an inch shorter. Other than that it's pretty simple just got to know if you need to get an abs one or not as GTSboy said

  3. Well I'm guessing there is a blockage in the turbo line then. So when the motor is turned off and has no flow the coolant in the turbo boils.

    Been studying a bit and found coolant boils at about 240 ish degrees give or take with pressure etc.

    Turbos get hotter than that.

    So it would be possible especially if you was giving it heaps before turning off I reckon.

  4. It doesn't sound like bubbles to me, how did you come to that conclusion?? Genuinely interested, not being a jerk.

    Well the on a turbo hose you put your hand on it (with a rag obviously) and you can feel it sort of vibrating as the bubbles are going past.

    Also when radiator cap is opened while the noise is happening it will spit and fart at you. However it is almost as though the water is boiling as it does not use any water or over heat.

    Been driving it for over 5000km like this now and nothing has happened yet.

  5. I have this sound! Its air bubbles in a coolant hose somewhere. From your turbo or heater probably like mine. Im still not sure what is rooted though ha ha but been driving it for a few weeks and nothing hapened yet. Maybe a slightly rooted Head gasket ? :unsure:
