Thanks for the responses to my questions/comments :)

I didnt actually realise the T67 wasnt a Twin Scroll turbo, but I do know the fact that you need to have both turbo/manifold as twin scroll items. Well, it seems I'll have to go with the T67 regardless, as my previous 'budget' just got hammered due to a family member requiring medical bills paid. Oh well. So, just to clarify, the T67 or the SH should both be 300+rwkw quite easily? With supporting mods? I think I got that part right :)

Stupid laptop wont let me look at ebay... Why oh why .. pinch.gif

Yeah mate, T67 is 300kw all day long.

Arthur, to publicly clarify the TD06SL2 20g is a 300kw item on SR's and Evo's.

I'm sure thats on E85 and well sorted motors, but I'm not talking about hens teeth to find. NS.com and evolutionoz both have plenty of testament in the way of dyno sheets.

Stop doubting your purchase! LOL

WTF!!! I didn't even get a sticker! feel so cheated :(

:D want some stickers?? i have some on the way. i sent an email to kando dynamics, and asked for some promotional stickers for us all, They were more than happy to help. heres the reply.

Haha who is a hater? The results are very close to garret for half the price, I can't imagine anyone hates that! jealous maybe not but hate! :)

All the people who paid over double for their turbo and make less power and response... and have slower cars :nyaanyaa:

I for one have had my GT3076R since WAY before I was aware of Kinugawa turbos, would freely admit a T67 is as responsive if I drove a car running one and found it to be the case. I also got my GT3076R for ~$2000nzd, the cheapest I can get a Kando T67 landed is $1400-1500nzd which I'd have needed an exhaust manifold, external wastegate and a bunch of other custom work to get installed. I have less power than people are making with T67s, a large part of that is to do with supporting mods, normal 98 petrol and the fact I just haven't bothered pushing it that hard. So far the highest I've seen anyone making on a GT3076R and a T67 is pretty much equal, so while I'm definitely not going to flame T67s - I think its basically retarded to bag the Garrett GT-series seeing as they've been around so much longer and are proven to all f**k.

If I were to do it all again now I'd personally go a Holset HX35 over a T67.

BTW, heres a recently installed Kinugawa T67 I referred to looking forward to the results from a bit earlier in the thread. It handled being started and a couple of quick boosts before compressor wheel met compressor housing, the turbo has been disassembled to check for oil starvation or any other installation related issues and it basically seems that one got through QC. Or something.

Who bagged a GT series Garrett?

I have never seen a turbo have that kind of damage from hitting a compressor housing, they normally just wear down the wheels... Have seen a lot of turbos like that which have eaten bolts/stones etc. so my question is what did it eat?

That looks more like something got through the filter, like a loose bolt or something! I would be pulling the entire intake assembly out to look for it imo.

I had a turbo where the housing and compressor made love, it still boosted but it sounded like a jet engine, probably the loudest whining noise I've ever heard, and yeah it just ground the edges down every so slightly, didn't snap anything off.

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
