I agree with this sometimes in the case of boredom, but now that my car is where I want it modification wise, I have no desire to modify further but still want to keep it.

Best if you can modify a car 'properly' not long after you buy it, that way if you keep it a few years you will get some good use out of the mods, and not blow your cash.

Unfortunately some workshops/owners don't know what the good mods are.

3076R Low doesn't look TOOOOO different to a stock turbo ;) Considering I'm without a heatshield at the moment anyway. Dat noise tho, pppsssssssss

Edit: Hmmmm, what do they make on E85? 330rwkw?

Buy my entire setup.

GTX 3076 will make 450kw or so on the right setup. Greg made 380 with his auto... return flow, stock airboc, 3 inch dump and intake. Stock officer. Personally I would go with the gtx71 for some extra response.

Garrett list them at 230-390kw

Go hypergear bro. Cheaper, local support and some really nice turbos on their menu lately.

i call bullshit on 450... no offense scotty.... but seriously what is that like 100psi?

Apparently 45psi, someone has done it on a SR20.

That said, was in a magazine. I was sceptical, but given I got 405 on 28ish psi, I see no reason that 15 extra psi wouldn't result in 50kw...

Inb4 stao

Inb4 toby's 400kw

HG turbo checking in, 15,000km and spinning like the day it was put in

I'm not saying they don't work but really they are not very much if at all cheaper than Garretts and due to having a plain bearing core you do lose some response(and that cool whirr down noise after the cars turned off :P) I just don't see them as excellent value for money.

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
