Hi all,

Up for grabs is my full GT30 high mount setup that I ran on my R33 GTR for no more than 2000km. Am selling this setup because I'm now running a set of N1 turbos and no longer need this kit. I would prefer to sell this as one complete setup with pick-up being the preferred option (for obvious reasons!)

I'm asking $3000 for the full kit that is guaranteed to fit onto your RB26, clearing strut tower, strut bars, cam covers and front drive train etc. The turbo was only run at 15 pounds and although it doesn't require it, was always idled for 1 minute prior to engine shutdown. Breakup of the prices are below, with original costs in brackets.

1. Garrett GT3076 ball bearing turbo .....$1400 ($1840)

2. Custom built tuned-length manifold with external gate mount.....$900 ($1350)

3. Mandrel bent 3" dump pipe (I have a stainless and mild steel item for you to chose from)..... $100 ($300)

4. Tial Sport waste gate ..... $350 ($455)

5. New Pod filter, air intake pipe, braided oil feed line, oil drain hose, flange plates, dump pipe clamps ..... $250

Feel free to send me a PM or 0413 893 942 if you have any queries at all.

Any changes needed to fit R32 gtr? Also, why did you go back to n1s?

Piranha, I'm not too sure about how things would fit inside the R32's engine bay. There was plenty room to spare either side of the turbo in my R33. I'm pretty sure that manifold wise and so forth, everything should bolt up. One would really have to check manifold stud spacing just to be certain

I've been trying out all sorts of turbo sizes and configurations - so far it seems to be a draw between the N1's and GT30 but can only run one or the other ;) The GT30 came on a bit harder (big single style) while the N1's seem to be more linear.

What rear housing on turbo?

Also what power were you making?

How was response rpm wise and when did it start to drop off?

The rear is .82

I was making 352hp at wheels on a very safe tune at around 1 bar. Just ran out of money at the time to be able to run turbo at it's efficiency which would have been between 18 and 20 pounds, equaling around 400hp at the wheels on a decent tune.

Response was actually good for a big turbo....little bit laggy below 3500 but once above that it ramps up hard and doesn't drop off.

Here are some photos of the manifold's collector / flange as requested.

The flange plate itself measures 108x66.4mm while the stud spacing measures approx 86x44.5mm centre to centre.

Hope this helps but please note, I really would prefer to sell this as one full kit as complete as possible. I still have parts left over from my last sale.

Ray, here's a hi-res pic of the dint in the underside of one of the runners. The manifold is made from thick-walled mild steel steam pipe and I dare say the area there will be OK. I was running it like this for a couple months.

Hi all, just letting you know that the manifold is getting fixed this week. The entire dinted runner is getting removed with a new one being put in place. Please let me know if you're interested, cheers!

Hi all,

Here are some pics of the repaired manifold now ready to be mounted on a 26 out there! Dented runner has been replaced with a new bit, cleaned and repainted. Will throw in collector side studs, gasket and nuts.

Will post to anywhere in Australia as per other parts that have been sold already.

    • Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.
    • Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way
    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate 
    • He means "as opposed to mechanical cable drive". Older cars (R32 for ex.) had cable drive. Later cars with essentially the same gearbox, ie R34 GT (NA RB25) used essentially the same box as the R32 GTSt, but instead of a cable drive, had an electronic speed sender plugged into the same hole in the box, running from the same little gear that would have run the cable. Some of the shittier later cars use a speed sender on the nose of the diff, or the ABS sensors.
    • Lower than engine, or lower than it should at the hubs? Either way, that is a nice power figure and I'm not surprised you say it rips now. What stopped you from turning it up any more? Injectors? Or did it just stop responding to boost?
