Gcg Highflow Ball Bearing Turbo Op6 Rear Housing

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.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.

      Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
