hi everyone

i have for sale a T78-33D turbo. i bought it a while ago and was going to strap it onto my rb25det motor, but have since changed my mind and working on a more "cost-effective" project, i have no use for it anymore.

i originally paid $1800 for it and am now looking to unload it for $1000.

i've had the copressor housing polished up and it looks pretty good.

the turbo is in good condition and i cant feel any shaft play what so ever. the v-band flange on the exhaust housing has been cut off by the previous owner, so the new dump pipe would have to be welded on. otherwise i've been quoted $20 bucks to weld another v-band flange on. so either way shouldnt be much of a hassel.

thanks for your time

ben

this the same turbo as on CODE 45 yes? it was on stock motor with low boost and made 330kw? so would this be ok on my 32 gtr with supportingh mods do u think???>

not sure as to CODE 45. but it will be fine gtr, as long as you have the supportings mods to be able to produce this sort of power. i belive the turbo is rated at 700hp so 330kw seems quite realistic

hope that helps

Just to confirm this is the same turbo and with the same style setup it will make around the same power.. 330rwkw will be a breaze.

would come on boost about 4500rpm right

im not sure man, i can only talk from previous experience where i had a "chinese turbo" straped to a rb25. its boost cam on at about 4500rpm, however the t78-33d exhaust housing is smaller then the "chinese" one.

so i'd dare say with slightly more capacity you probably would be look a littel earlier then 4500rpm

hope that helps

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
