Extra Information:

I brought this turbo brand new from the states. These sell new for $1500US, this turbo is not your standard $250 2nd hand ebay job thats tone 300 *** k's on a truck running 30psi all day every day.

Ive ran this turbo for 10 000k's on 16psi, its seen 20psi while the car was getting tuned but was then droped back to 16 due to fuel issues. This turbos are built for big boost and will last forever. (do a quick search on holsets and you will see what a great turbo they are). There is no shaft play and no junkie oil build up in the cartridge like you find on 2nd units.

ive removed the actuator, bracket and antisurge silencer ring which makes it spool louder, these will be included in the sale. the compressor housing has been polished and has a 4" inlet. It has a T3 split pulse flange.

i will also include the exhaust flange and the copper gasket i was using, 3" exhaust outlet and the exhaust flange has been modified to hold the internal gate shut as i was using and external gate. However if you want to convert back to internal its as simple as bolting on the actuator (i believe actuator opens at 25psi)

on my rb26 its spooling by 2500 and full boost at around 3000-3200. i have ran a 12.00@111mph on 16psi and made 360hp at all 4 wheels on the same boost.

This turbo delivers!

its on my rb26, i got a dyno graph but its at the parents place.. its relly responsive, full boost at 3200, but still has good top end pull, 111mph over the quater on 16psi. Holset are a great turbo as far as im concerend, duno what else to say realy, the power figure im making with it is in the add, it has characteristics that of a turbo slightly smaller then a gt3582. but spools much louder! :( would be ideal for any 20,25, or 26, the high mount manifold its on in the photos were when i first brought it, it was going to go on my vl that had a rb25 in it, but then i sold the car and got a gtr, but i didnt like the lag that the big hks had, so i put the holset on (as per photo). Hope that helps

I've got an identicle turbo i'm putting on an rb30det motor.

These turbo's, on the trucks they came on, often ran as much as 44psi of boost. the turbo is designed to last at that boost, as most trucks easily see near 1,000,000 km's. There are a few cars here running them, and in the states too. They are very responsive for their potential power output, and definately can do the job well!

Worth buying for sure

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
