man, youd wanna have a good car to be out there, i find it bad enough driving my company car up

the freeway on a hot day :)

Not wrong Craig.

The locals were telling us that they don't bother recording temperatures that exceed 50 deg but temps in the mid 50's are quite common.....whew, I'm thirsty just thinking about it again!

All Skylines would die up there unfortunately.....and some 4WD's too, lol.

Nothing grows with that heat, not even weeds.

u might be able to change the springs inside the wastegate so u can run more boost, when i bought my turbosmart gate it came with 4 springs

running your gt3076 with the .7 compressor housing on your low mount manifold might have clearance problems with your engine mount

when i mounted my gt35 on my 6boost low mount manifold i had to have the engine mount machined down a bit to make it clear

Those manifolds were sold with in the HKS GT3037 kits which is the HKS version of a the GT3076 so he shouldn't have any trouble. you can see on the front 3 runners they curve up before the collector which allows for large compressor housing to clear.

EDIT!!

LOL that's not what you were saying though, the kits were bolt on items though so there shouldn't have to be any mount modification needed, from what i understand they actually move the turbo forward slightly from the factory position.

Your apology is accepted and I appreciate that it was done publicly rather than by PM.

IMHO, it takes a real man to come out in public and apologize, so thanks.......water under the bridge now. :P

I'm sorry you're bold Pete :P Apology accepted? :teehee:

I know that of lot of people on here have arguments with their wives and girlfriends over the amount of time and $ spent on 'that bloody car'.

Valentines Day is approaching so I thought that I'd put forward this T-shirt as a gift suggestion:

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
