Confirmed. Turbo core is rattly and on its way out. $1700 to rebuild.

Do I go with rebuilding it or would a 3071 be better with less lag?

For $1700, what do I do people? :P

mate, now that I've returned the R back to stock, I've got a spare one you can have.

just harden up & do it!

who is that with Roo

f**k 1700? a guy in melb hiflows for 800? You can get more power out of a 3071r :) but do you wanna upgrade injectors, fuel pressure reg, fuel pump, z32afm, etc etc?

with any turbo upgrade those parts will need upgrading to make full potential of new turbo

bah, rebuild/hi flow a vg30 rubes, keep the popo happy and still makes Very good power.

atleast speaking from my experience anyway

fixed

ring Bill Keen from ATS even if its just to pick his brain he built my high flow and its awesome he also built 180or200's aka Adrian and his flows good too

Hows this for good.

have a few drinks with one of my fav musical groups from LA two weeks ago.

Watch their second show last thursday. have a few more drinks. and chit chat. real nice people.

Ask me and a friend to come party with them in Las vegas in May. then stay with them in LA where they live. show us around etc.

My answer was yes. :)

oooooh I might be heading to Vegas in May to catch up with some friends from London .... who is the band?

Ruby my mate has a Garret 3071 for sale, rb housing, lines, done 3000k's, made 280rwkw on his 34. Price ~$2200

Croydon Racing Developments are doing them for $1450 new. :)

Who was selling an Apexi turbo recently ... Rad32?

The 3071 seems to be the one to go for.

Pretty heavy band. 'as blood runs black'

Think I wrote something in wasteland awhile back about them. when I was a tad wasted myself.

usually into electronic stuff. But I can appreciate good music.

    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
