How on earth did you manage to write that out twice :blink:

Yeah I have never heard of them either. I really don't understand why people go towards random unheard of turbochargers when the ones that are proven time and time again at the end of the day aren't that much dearer. Given that 9/10 times a "cheap" budget turbocharger doesn't fit properly and requires a custom dump pipe or spacer plate or custom made oil and water lines, usually ends up being just as much as a bolt on Garret or Hypergear kit. Not to mention than you don't get the power you want and end up selling it 6 months later.

I just did a google on the PCPA turbochargers. PCPA is the name of the website (maybe shop aswell, didn't really look into it that much) that sells them. Not the brand of the turbochargers themselves.

So the turbochargers appear to be just a typical no name brand ebay spec turbo like the rest of them.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Finally have an update on this  Rack came in this week so I did a test fit. You do need the S chassis bushings since the rack is 5mm thinner than the R33 rack. The main issue I foresaw and ran into was one of the hardlines not lining up properly with there it's meant to on the rack. After some gentle coercing and bending very slightly, I managed to get it to fit without any kinks and keeping the hardline pretty much in all of the factory mounting positions. I did have to unbolt all of the soft mounts to move the line around so I could snake it out and bend it safely but it looks good to me for now. I'll update when the rack is fully bolted in and functioning.

      What are you thinking makes a sequential shit to drive on the street? About the ONLY thing I can think of, is if you're wanting to be able to roll up to lights in third or second and pop it straight into neutral, or you want to come down two or three gears, say out of 5th and back to second, but they shift quick enough it doesn't really matter
