GCG highflow is around 1700-1800. not sure bout hypergear. maybe get highflow and ecu and run on the limits of the AFM until you have the coin to get a Z32 and injectors as AFM will run out of legs before the injectors

For $2000-$3000 - No.

Injectors are $700-800, ECU + tune is at least $1500.

$2300 before you even start with the turbo, fitting, new dump etc. Then comes the clutch and everything else.

You need at least 5k realistically maybe more.

For 2~3 Grand you can get a GT3076R in the new nissan 6 bolt housing. (I think they were for $2300). Or get hypergear to do your high flow, they can make your stockie to pump 300rwkws+. Check their thread out.

Not one supporting mod listed there. What good is a turbo if you have no other parts to make use of it?

As i said - its a good 5k adventure.

I had a look at that, and was wondering how it fit, as as far as im aware, the GT30R needs a 10mm spacer to clear everything on an RB20/25 with a stock manifold.

How'd they get around that one?

Mine was a factory OP6 high flow, every thing bolted back the way it was. the 300rwkws+ high flow I referred to was the so called "pu high flow" which comes with a .82 OEM pattened turbine end. From photos all it needed was a oil feeding line like all their other high flows. It runs on factory comp housing so I guess spacer is not needed. Have a read in their thread, lots of information:

Whilst it makes 300rwkw, the power band is not that of say a GT30 which has a good 1000rpm extra to play with.

Horses for courses i guess and many factors one must consider when purchasing a turbo.

Yeah a turbo might make "X" power, but the real point is just how it makes that power. Is it responsive, how much RPM do you have to work with etc.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
