$1800-$2000 is the price, if you are lucky you might get one for $1750.

MTQ, HPIAB, GCG etc are all pretty much that price.

Any supplier on any given day might have different pricing, so ring around a few.

Price seems to fluctuate depending on the price at the time - however you seem to be under some impression that's now what they are worth?

^That is the 52T, T04S wheel - 7 blader.

He is after the 56T.

$1400 basically. ($1500AUD)

Plus shipping and so on, probably cheaper overall if you can afford to wait, but its marginal.

Although good luck if its rooted/dies when it gets here, suppose not that you can really get warranty of them anyway if they die.

Remember the aussie stock was most likely purchased not @ 92cents, and even if it was - you'll never see a retailer pass on the saving to the end consumer in this country

ash: im mainly after prices from said suppliers, i know that the 1900 price is the normal retail price but who likes paying full retail....

dale: thats cheap! but whats with that rear housing?? edit: ah i see its a 7 blader also lol

Problem is though there is not a massive margin.

You are talking $150 maybe if you are lucky $200?

If you can get them here from the US for what... $1600-$1650 delivered (freight, insurance) then $150 more makes it the $1800 which is not a bad price.

2k is a bit much though.

150 saved is 150 to go towards other shit. thats the way i see it mate

Not if it comes over here with a faulty cartridge or something... you'll soon be outta pocket a bit more than that (and the time).

But each to their own on that one. Some things i just won't buy from O/S if possible. Turbo's are one of those things.

If the -9's were availble from Garrett 5-6 years ago instead of HKS GT-SS's i'd have gone that way right off the bat rather than import :P

yeah fair enough, but im talking about buying local, and any local dealer will have a warrenty scheme. if they dont then they shouldnt be in business.

Get it local dude. You will no doubt have questions when your putting the turbo on and these local guys are one phone call away and they will help you. You get peace of mind with warranties etc.

MTQ are really good thats where i got mine.

when i was shopping around for myne i contacted atleast 10 different businesses, by phone and email. a few didnt even reply and then most that did tried to talk me out of a 3076 and into a highflow or they didnt have the exact type i was after, only cropped turbine t25 flanged versions. mtq were the only place that would actually listen to what i wanted and ordered exactly that from their wharehouse in QLD. got the turbo with a machined out wastegate port and bigger flapper, actuator, bracket and spacer for $2000. a lot of the other places were cheaper at the time none of them were the proper 3076 that everyone here wants.

if you can find it cheaper then go for it, but make sure your getting what you want and not whatever the seller wants you to have

I got mine from Turbo Australia in Brisbane... They are awesome guys, very helpful even with after sale service.

Ditto. They were very helpful

I got a true 3076r .82 int no actuator for $1800

ext gate was $1650

Have you tried CRD?

I sourced my turbos from there and were extremely competitive compared to other sellers such as ATP etc etc.

We also purchased a 3071 from them a while ago and from memory it was 1700 or so, but more to the point it was the best price going around at that time compared to others.

Give them a call.

P.S there is one in the FS section but I dont know what the exact specs of it are.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
