the trust ones that jenkies is interested in. If they are similar to the N1 , id say they are fairly responsive, similar to a stock turbo, but build alot stronger so they can handle more boost.

i tried the search function but got nuthin :banana:

so ima ask it here, whats the widest wheel you can get on a 32 gtr? and the ofset you need to acheive this?? guessing around the 10-11 mark?? would be for a 18 inch wheel aswell

10inch wide with a +18 offset....

just wondering if anyone knew much about greddy t517z x2 suit gtr. power potential, posatives and negatives

cheers in advance

hey mark, where ya been bud?

I'm no expert on these snails but I think you may find they have journal style bearings as opposed to the Garrett style ball bearing

carl, what did you use for your glovebox setup? (materials)

its a piece of black plastic that is about 4mm thick that has been cut as a facade, and have put a couple gauges in there... used to have ebc inthere too, but i choose to abide the law nao :laugh:

i'll prolly be at villis if u wanna see it, im planning on re-doing it soon

I've been doing a fair bit of research on new snails...

t517z x2: Beware theres 2 types of housings, an 8cm and 10cm one. 8cm is equivilent to GT5860-7(HKS GTSS), 10's = GT5680-5(HKS GTRS) and SLED is correct that they aren't Ball Bearing. From what I've heard quite linear quite peaky compared to the Garrets.

The -5 is bigger than the -7 if that makes any sense.

Some specs here: Gtr twin turbo comparisons

I've settled for a set of 34N1's because they're supposed to be similar to stock response.

so that would be bout a 275ish???

i got 275s on mine dont ask me what rim size n offset though dont know. tires start getting pretty expensive at that size by the way :)

ur welcome to have a look when i get it going again.

1 of them (Samantha i think) was talking to my mum yesterday and said she thinks she knows

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
