Have a GCG highflow turbo for sale. Bought it second hand a few months ago but wasnt on the car for long at all. I was running 1bar boost for everyday driving and until i could get a new clutch as mine would slip with more boost. These turbos are perfect for skylines in my opinion as they make around 270kw on a rb25 and are very responsive. GCG are the best turbo company in australia and have a very good reputation when it comes to highflowing turbos. The bearings in this one have gone because i let the oil get a bit too low. It was never completely starved of oil but just didnt have the right pressure for a few seconds which is all it needed. Also because the bearings are gone the shaft has a bit of play and the front fin has been skimming the front housing. I called GCG and they said it needs new bearings ($600 or less from MTQ etc) and possibly a new front blade which are reasonably cheap. They bolt directly onto any rb20 or rb25 and sock lines can be used. It has the 0P6 rear housing off a r34 turbo and front housing of an rb20 for high top end and response. The housings are bored out and a ball bearing core is installed with bigger steel wheels which result in around 270kw and can run 20psi safely. The plate on the side of the turbo has the serial number etc which can be quoted to GCG if you would like any more information.

If you have any questions ill try my best to answer them.

I can post it or can be picked up from camberwell, vic

These are $2000 new plus a stock turbo so im after $500 or nearest offer. This will include the turbo elbow and an actuator.

I got told around 150 but thats not an official quote. Either way still a cheap GCG after its fixed. I cant afford to get it fixed at the moment as i need a clutch and have no money.

Nah sorry i dont have a dyno graph. Have a look at the first post on this page though:

Makes 18psi at 3900RPM but thats with the rb25 rear housing. This one has OP6 so will be bit more laggy with more top end air flow / power.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
