Turbo Rebuilders in Perth

[caminperth]

Hey all - am chasing the names of companies that can rebuild my turbo. The only one I know of is Turbotech. Any others that you would recommend or have experience with? PM me if you feel your comments aren't appropriate for the forum.

Thanks...

GCG over east maybe?

Why not upgrade Cam? There was a TD06-20G for sale on NissanSilvia.com, in Perth too :-)

[caminperth]

GCG - I'll have a look. Thanks..

Upgrade - nah.. I'll wait till I can throw about 12k at it to do it properly.

Hope this helps

MIQ which is in Victoria road Malaga.9209 1677

Used to be the old Dynamic Turbos operation and is now run by a guy called Eric.

Knows his stuff but can be depressing to talk to

If you have spoken to him you'll know what I mean. Did my 581's and rebuilds most of Maximums Subaru rally ones.

cheers

rebuild, i hope you're at least not going ceramic wheel again

[caminperth]

Not unless I go back to another stockie Boo5t...

Ken - sorry I didn't get round, been very very busy at work..

Thanks for the info guys.. Muchly appreciated..

Cam, I think it's possible to put a steel wheeled RX7 turbine in a machined RB25 turbo housing, might cost the same as a rebuild but provide a bit more power and reliability.

Cam - PM rev210 - he's got a turbo for sale at a good price if I recall

Grant at Per4manz right next door to SST!

Im using a high flow VL turbo off GOTBOOST's old rb20.Its very responsive and makes nice hp for what its worth.made 360rwhp at 17psi recently.very happy with this high flow

Cam,

Any truck or boat tech shop will be able to do it. I had the problem with the old Supra before anyone knew about Jap Imports, just find one of those places, if it is just seals, or trhe mill or the bearing, they will build it and replace component and preasuree test it and all..................

TurboTech charge arm and a leg.........................

They think they are the only gusy in the City, ehehehhehe, but in fact lot more people know the turbo components........

[sexzila]

The good thing about those places they can find parts for them without you having to buy entire kit for the turbo...............

Any diesel engine shop, might be able to help......if you are finding parts as stand alone or got the turbo out and can do it yourself.........

My sisters huby did it for me

[sexzila]

There is a website on one of Supra forums how to service your own turbo.......

Just need few small tools and some sort of clamp for centering......or something ......

I forgot........but I know you are clued up on these things so you can do it.

Thanks for the info guys.. I ended up saving my pennies for now and sourcing a 2nd hand stock unit.. The upgrade will be comming after my Euro trip this year (which is why I'm trying to save $)...

Again - thanks guys.. I think I'll be getting a VL unit in October.

GTS360~ nice is that the new rego plate?could be GTS400 @ 20psi

Hmm - fitting the turbo is turning into more than just a re-bolt on. Have found some problems as a direct result of bad workmanship by *** performance (in wangara - you work it out) who fitted the dump - missing bolts and flange holes not lining up by a mile. You wouldn't think the fabrication of a flange would be so hard...

Anyways - on inspecting the compressor wheel on my old turbo vs my new one, I found that the new one has dual vanes while the old one has single? Any ideas? I'll post up comparative pics tonight.

is the old comp wheel plastic?
