I love this guy, makes a thread to ask our opinions on which turbo is right for him..

So we all give our opinion that he should mod other things before worrying about a turbo.

A week later he wants a 3037 :rofl:

Next week it will be NOS, 2 of the big ones. We will tell him NOS is for amateurs but he won't listen and then he won't listen when his laptop tells him "DANGER TO MANIFOLD", he will blow the welds on his intake and fry his piston rings cause he was granny shifting and not double clutching when he should..

Anyway we all know the story, base line is..Mia I'm a cop. ..

Actually i was told that the stock turbo in my car was a piece of shit and that i should throw it out and get a new one by multiple people. Thus why the thread started, i came here for advice. So if you dont have any useful advice other than your amazing sarcasm, simply click the 'next thread' button. Thanks.

If you want to skimp on cost, get a z32 ecu and put a nistune board in it and then get a profec b boost controller or something similar. Should cost about $850 or so.

If you can get a 3037 or 2835 pro s by all means do it, neither will dissapoint you but they are a little harder to come by these days. A gt3076r or gt3071 will be good options as well or look at the hypergear range such as an ss1pu or the G3/2.5. You need to decide if you want to run internal or external gate though. Seeing as you seem like your are new to everything i think you would be best served going internal gate and if you want the turbo to bolt up to the stock exhaust pipe then a hypergear will suit you. You can get gt3076 turbos with the nissan 6 bolt dump pattern but they apparently arent the greatest.

On top of the turbo and ecu the other things you will need:

3"+ metal intake pipe

Front mount intercooler

3"+ turbo back exhaust

555cc+ injectors (if e85 you will need bigger)

Upgraded fuel pump (nismo/tomei and bosch are good)

Z32 air flow meter

A clutch capable of holding around 300kw

Set aside $$ for the possibility of new coilpacks as well

Im sure there are probably other things you will need as well, but thats all i can think of off the top of my head.

I recommend you do a lot of reading and searching through threads in this section as all the info you need is here

I think ill go with the power fc to be honest, it has a MAP sensor so i dont need an afm.

Definately want to go internal wastegate but ill do some more research

already have 3" exhaust, intercooler and i have added 840cc injectors to my list and a 040 bosch pump, ill do some research about a clutch, any recommendations?

Cheers.

lol...I honestly never saw that there before...

ok heres my 2c...call hypergear, get a turbo and an adaptronic ecu off him if he still has any

or theres one here and get a 3076 if you dont want hypergear..

http://www.skylinesa..._1#entry6370749

comes with built in MAP..if your tuner tells you its no good tell him to get his shit together cause its a perfectly capable unit (i know cause i have one) and you wont get better for that price unless you buy a used pfc or something which are getting alot cheaper these days

then get the best injectors and fuel pump (wired for full voltage) you can find..NPC clutches are great value too

for around 3k (which will easily blow out to 5k) you will be super fast...job done...

for the money it would cost to setup a 3037 (which really should be mounted to a decent manifold to be effective anyway) you could setup a t67 kando and be just as fast if not faster. there is far better ways to spend your coin than just getting a 3037

You cant just roll in here and say Which turbo is best, cause there is so many variables as to which turbo is best for your situation..whats the car used for drag, drift,burnouts, track how much money do you have to spend, is it daily driven yadda yadda yadda...but if you did a little research you would know this already..

as they say, ask a stupid question , get a stupid answer... :)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
