Front part of the exhaust will need changing too. Buy a GTT, much much simpler when considering registration hassles too....

what do you mean?

the engine i have found includes mainfold with the turbo on it.

and no, im not buying a gtt.

i couldnt give a rats about rego now lol once the rego runs out end of june she wont be registered again untll october,.and thats cause of the fact i got 3 shows on 3 consecutive weekends, and rego up here is cheaper than it is in adelaide :P

Front/dump pipe part that bolts to the back of the turbo will be different to your NA

You'll need to change engine number for registration and also more than likely *(I'm not 100% sure) you'll need an engineers certificate because of the turbo addition.

oh ok well getting a dump pipe aint that hard lol

not sure on the engineers certificate i know i have to fill out some form letting them (regency i think) know about the engine swap and they send me out a list of stuff i have to change, something like that. ill give em a buzz tomoro

diff, suspension, drive shaft.

im just plucking but there could be other potential things in there.

only benefit i see in moding the current 1 is you wont have to swap over your body kit. thought that woulda been an easier job than swapping an otherwise perfectly good engine out of a car.

and the stereo of course

diff i can get away with, i dont intend to be doing burnouts anyway

suspension is same as gtt (my lowered king springs and shocks are from gtt), clutch is gtt too

- 1 AGAIN to the media.

we are being blamed for a hep. A outbreak in our semi dries tomatoes. funny that seeing as :

A: we do not make them, they are grown/dried/packaged in queensland.

B: we do not supply interstate ( where other cases have been found)

C:we are haccp certified.

D: there are 3 other major suppliers of semi dries in adelaide, all of which come from the sphincter of the universe where food safety is nearly non existent. (ours are aus)

Once again, media blabbering without re-search.

:P

He still doesn't know :D His son does and also works with us, he sent me a message not long ago saying people were laughing and beeping all the way home and the old man couldn't figure out why :(

thats pure gold. lol nice work hahaha

    • 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/
