OP6 hiflow turbo (has OP6 printed on the rear housing) by turbologic in Wollongong, confirmed by fred himself. Still on the car, will be removed once sold. Has been on the car for over a year running 8-10psi. I pulled the intake off and found all intake fins are perfect, no chips or anything. very minimal if any shaft play, turbo still looks very clean and fresh. Welcome to come inspect or see it driving on the car

$800

for all the kids that are going to tell me they can get their's hiflow'd new for $800,do it! i just rang Fred and he charges $1400 for his hiflow's + the price of an op6 turbo.

Yea its a dirrect replacment for r33 turbo. All your water/oil lines, dump pipe, inlet, etc all line up. It is currently in my 33.

As for its potential i'd say you could make 250kw+ on an rb25 with supporting mods. I currently run it on 8psi untuned tho so i can't exactly say, but i dont think its laggy.

Ad's; yea the turbo originally came from an r34, which has an op6 rear housing ( abit larger then a 33, so slightly longer spool time but capable of more power. )

Edited by nik.

So she isnt just a rebuild its a highflowed jobbie too?

Adam

Na, it was hiflowed which uses new wheels and bearings so its actually like a rebuild just using higher flowing internals aswell, so its capable of making more power. mate made 249kw on a GCG r33 hiflow, so being an OP6 i would say its capable of just a touch more, was also told it was fitted with the highest flowing internals it could fit in an r34 turbo.

hey, interested in the turbo mate, where are you located would like to come and see.

Located in wollongong, welcome for inspection at any time. Its on the car at the moment running ( altho untuned so you cant exactly see the potential of the turbo )

For anyone interested, on an untuned setup running 8-10psi and a standard dump, it seems to boogie at 3300rpm.

Oh okay, had no idea. I'd prefer a bush bearing anyway for multiple reasons. It originally came off one of the workers at JustJap car as he was upgrading and its been on my 33 since.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
