yeh im not too sure about the 77k's because its at a mechanic shop right now and its a mechanic whos imported it thats selling it... The odometer reads about 38k but he said its really done about 77k's and his had to change the meter to get compliance in australia... so the 77k's is jsut going by his word, dont know if RACV check or something can pick that up?

yeh mate a turbo r32 for 9200 i was stoked and it is the best thing i have ever bought in my life ;) i was fortunate that the guy that i bought it off really needed to sell and wanted to get outta the car scene but my mate picked up a 1995 r33 turbo burgandy for $8500 cuz the fella was in debt and there was nothing rong with it at all... so ya get lucky sometimes just keep ya eyes open and look on www.carsales.com.au thats where i spotted mine at...good luck man

It seems all Jap cars have questionable mileage, however 77 sounds more realistic than 38.

11K is pretty cheap especially if it's a later model? What year is it? I've seem 1990 models fetching upto 15K.

My mate just bought a black 1991 GTS-t, fairly clean for $13,800 with 97K and is wrapped.

If it looks good, drives well, what have you really got to lose. Go for it I'd say!

    • This is what the look like normally. Except we only got the 2 doors locally
    • Back pressure is not really a function of the exhaust itself, but the turbine/housing. So the question/point remains valid. I would be fitting an EMAP tapping point and seeing what is going on in the exhaust manifold before committing to throwing boost at it. Flow. No intercooler is actually rated for continuous operation at any power level wrt temperatures, as they are no actually capable of shifting the required amounts of heat on a continuous basis. They get hot during a pul, then dump some of that heat into the external air (and some back into the internal air) during off load moments/periods). You probaby do need a bigger core, given the power level you're already at is somewhat above the "rating" of the cooler. Put pressure tapping points either side of the core (which possibly you already have, if you have a boost source near the compressor outlet and tapping near the throttle for existing purposes) and report on delta P across the core.   I haven't done the mass flow calculation to see where you would be sitting on the compressor map at the ~450is rwkW level we're talking here, but if you look just at the PR you're running at, which is ~2.8-2.9, then you have a really really wide swath of the compressor map to run in, and so long as you were making between about 45-75 lb/min of flow, you should have really good comp efficiency, with the ideal being betweem 55 and 65. I can't see the need to shift drastically on the map to get better results.
    • Welcome 🙂 The ER34 wheels and slight lowering suit the R33 sedan really well. I'm firmly in the 'keep it stock, at least on the outside' camp.
    • Do this, and we'll have a resource right here.
    • "Hybrid" is a meaningless term. I could not tell you what the vendor of that turbo means by "hybrid".
