Hi all,

I'm selling a pair of ball bearing Garrett turbos to suit RB26DETT - GTRs. They come complete with 1bar rated actuators, modified oil drain flange pipes, and most gaskets, so all you need to fit is maybe a few gaskets and some patience!

I purchased these turbos not long ago, they're the only reason i'm selling them is that they're probably a little too big and therefor laggy for my current plans. That an i got an exhaust leak and i have had to remove them!!! ;):rofl: If sold i'll probably be going through the headache of a big single conversion.

Turbos are located in Townsville North QLD and i'll pay the freight to anywhere in australia if they're sold. and if i get a good price i'll even throw in brand-new un-used genuine nissan head-manifold gaskets.

They're rated at 320hp a piece and the part/chra number is 707160-005. According to the retailer that sold them to me theyre similar spec to the GT28RS but with smaller housings.

They come on like a freight train at 4-5k and above 5k they keep going and going.. They've never really gotten a proper chance to perform in my car, but I have done a 12.1 at 114mph with around 1 bar.. but they were maxing the injectors out pretty hard for most of the strip! Capable of soo much more!

Theyve seen less less than 4,000 kms of use i'd estimate.

If no one offers a reasonable amount they'll be refitted to the car.

More specs at :

I'm looking for offers around the $2,500 mark, which is lots less than what i paid not long ago. Call me and lets talk.

Please contact me, preferably ASAP and by phone, coz soon i'll be too tempted to fit them back to my car.

Call, 0402.701.181.

Cheers

Rob

Here is a picture of one of them next to my an original standard gtr turbo.

A mate of mine tuned an R33 GTR, which had a pair of these and it managed an impressive 410kw at the wheels with these turbos on 1.8bar. This shows with a few mods these should be the last turbos you'll ever need to buy.

wow thats unreal power! so would these be better than gt2860r with -5 version?

i can vouch for these turbos!

i have a set on my GTR and with a full turbo back exhaust and boost, the car ran 11.7 (on 4 occasions)

good luck with the sale mate - very good price!

cheers Garth

jebus, someone loan me the money. these would be perfect for my RB30/26 engine.

*shakes fist at buying house before finishing engine*

let me know if no one takes em before u refit them to your car, ill try and sell something or beg for money to buy them off you.

cheers

hi mate im not sure how much you paid for these turbos but when i had purchased them 8 months ago i paid $2200...i just looked through ebay and some1 is selling them for $2550 brand new.

but good luck with your sale

Sorry to the people who pm'ed i've been out of town for a few days.

I understand that 2.5k is a little on the exxy side what with the prices these are going for these days. And I'm willing to conceed that obviously its pointless expecting anywhere near the new price, but looking due to the fact that there is absolutlely nothing wrong with these units and added to that, the costs i have to meet to replace them means i could probably only go as low as $2300.

The only reason i'd be selling these is to convert to a single turbo setup and realistically i'm looking at over $4k to purchase what i need.

So I take it on board that $2500 is too much and i'll adjust the pricet to $2300.

Thanks for the replies.

Robbo.

MrFlex the fact that these turbos retail for $2500 a pair has already been noted.. Please read the thread, but thanks for the bump.

Unfortuantly I've decided to keep them, after a few very good offers, Ive decided to keep them anyway. The cost to replace them is just too much for me at the moment, these are good turbos, just a little excessive for what i want at present.

Thanks again to the people who made legitimate offers.

Cheers,

Robbo.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
