if u really want one ill sell u mine, $100 i used it for all of about 3 minutes, the car didnt boost just idled, as soon as the exhaust housing and exhaust were hot enough, it blew white oil smoke everywhere as the oil seal was already gone and it was leaking oil straight into the exhaust wheel after that drove it anyway for about 2 mins it otherwise worked well and boosted extremely hard at about 4400 on a rb20.

Oh yeh man , i was considering but after hearing that,,,,, i dont think its a good idea, i will just save up for a better brand name turbo...... wat is the brand of the t04 is it xspower or something???? one of my mates reckon that all u do is get the turbo ballanced and they ok good,,, but after hearing that story of the oil leaking from the seals. i aint taking the risk...

ive heard of ppl buying them and just getting them balanced and they work but i guess it depends on which one, mine wasnt an xspower one but they are all the same shit.

one of the pricks that sells them on ebay is a known bad trader here on sau aswell.

I know of a guy running twin T04 turbos on his Commodore. From memory, he is making 850rwhp @ 18psi, but that is on a 355ci V8, but it gives you some idea of the power potential of the turbos. An RB20 is not going to let you make that sort of power, so I think these turbos might be a touch big for an RB20.

BTW, the guy with the Commodore is planning on cranking up to 30psi aiming for 1100hp, but I am not sure if he is planning on using the T04 turbos...

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
