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.

PM or reply here

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.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
