Yes it is $1,500 for T3 flange please read the post i replied. It was stated clearly.

and if you read my post, you can see clearly why i re-stated what i was asking. Been mis-quoted on 2 different occasions, different sellers. here is an example of one;

"

ME:

garrett gt3071r, 0.63 exhaust housing, external gate, 4-bolt pattern t3 rear housing

Seller:

............Hi $1,625.00 delivered

Another Person:

Are you 100% sure that is with the T3 housing as the off the shelf GT3071R is 0.64 AR T25/28 style (integral wastegate)

Seller:

.............Thank you for bringing that to my attention, you are absolutely correct , I have now amended my post to gee-180

ME:

wow that is cheap for that spec turbo, hard to get in aus..i will let you know

Seller:

...........Yes, you are correct, it is too cheap. I made an error for which I apologize. The price delivered for your Spec is - AUD$2,370.00

"

don't take offence, but when the price jumps up by $745 on one occasion and $650 on the other, i tried to make sure it didn't happen the 3rd time i just had to make sure.

but if what you are saying is correct for that price and my exact spec, i will be interested in a few days.

thanks

Hi Mate

I am interested in buying a set of the 2860 -5 turbos for my gtr, but I did a serch for the distributor that you named in your first post and it come up with nothing. I searched using both google and www.turbobygarrett.com website.

I dont want to sound rude but I want to make sure that this distributor is legit.

Hi, if you are afraid this is not legit, u can try to PM Cooper who is one of the buyers for the turbo. He has already received the turbos.

Sloutch, I don't mean any disrespect I just want ot make sure that all is above board before I go spending 2 grand.

Can you post a website for the distributor?

Its ok mate...disrespect him all you want...he's used to it... :cheers:

Bought a set of these for my mate. Very good service from sloutch and the US seller :D They took around 10 days to come, from order to delivery.

Thanks very much for the group buy mate, my friend is stoked at saving over $500 compared to the cheapest Aus Distributor.

I can vouch (sp) for sloutch and his distributor (PSI Supply) (check my sig :rofl: ). Quick communication from both parties and were sent quickly. I have just got my car back from having these turbos installed aswell and have no problems. This group buy is 100% legit and people will not get screwed over plus its an awesome saving :)

Still waiting for his write- back :(

Sheng,

Sorry for the late reply. I'm talking with my supplier at the moment. I'll get back to you as soon as i can.

Cheers

Cooper : Hope you're enjoying your new turbos now. :).

Tommo: Hey, tell your mate i'll come up to NSW and he can use that $500 i saved him to give me a treat!! :D

The warranty is with Garret so if there's any problems you can bring it to the garret dealer and use the warranty.

No we don't supply the line kits, you have to purchase them yourself.

There is no minimum or maximum number of people to start ordering in this buy. There's already more than 10 customers from SAU. If i'm not wrong, nobody on SAU or in Australia can beat that price.

keen as for a set of GT2860r's, just need to talk it over with my mechanic this week to work out if i need -5 or -7, i'll hopfully PM you this week to work out paying for a set, to good a deal to pass on.

cheers Johnny

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
