As title, after I remove the standard turbo from my car this coming Sunday, it's up for grabs.

The last time the turbo was out of the car was when I had the manifold gasket/studs done by Autotech, and they advised me it was in good condition with very very little shaft play.

Having said this, it's been run on ~11psi since I bought the car (and God knows how long beforehand), so it certainly hasn't been babied while on boost.

I've only found a couple of FS threads for stock turbos, so I don't have a great idea of price. I will start the asking price at $100, which is already lower than the few other sellers I've found (around $150).

If there are any issues at all with the turbo when I pull it out to look at it, I won't rip you off lol. I'm happy for it to become a paper weight, I just thought some R32 owner might want it.

By the way, THIS IS FOR THE TURBO ONLY. Since I am swapping mine out for a highflowed turbo from Hypergear, I will be keeping the water line and maybe anything else that I still require to run the new one.

Just so ya know, i ended up breaking one, then making a new water feed line to the turbo.

The stocker does fit but it needs to be manipulated a fair bit to get on. And those metal pipes don't like getting bent much...

good luck with the sale too!

hole shit! everyone wants one!!!

Nar Troy, it should be fine, there's a flange between the rear housing and the middle part (where the water and oils lines go) if we grind a small peice of metal out of this flange it'll make the water line go on fine... Had i have known this before i did mine it would've saved a hell of a lot of time :bunny:

Probs just as much. Will be a bit more laggy on a 32, but would be nice for a drift car (which 32's were made for, amirite?)

Mine's more than likely being let go to wal32r, unless he changes his mind.

Remember Pat, THE BEST bang for buck upgrade a 32 GTS-T can get is an RB25 turbo. So at this price it's a steal.

it's not if someone with an RB20 wants response, my experience is they get full boost at about 4000rpm, comes on hard, but that's too lagy for me.

pretty much no one makes turbos small enough for the RB20 anymore so i'll probably look into steel wheeling my stock one

When your operating system or hardware on your PC is no longer supported by applications, it's time to upgrade.

In this case, buy a front cut R33 and be done with it! RB25 powered 32's are hawt.

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
