Hey guys, not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'm heading onto my black license soon and I was just wondering what kind of manual 33's and 34's (turbo) were out there around that $11,000 - $12,000 mark. I'm looking for something as close to stock as possible because I won't be taking this car to a track, it will be a daily. If anyone was thinking about selling their car in a couple of months or has something that fits the bill I would love to see what is out there. It is also preferable that it has low kms. Thanks in advance!

12000... rule 34s out.

itll be a piece of shit, may as well buy an excel with a turbo on it, will cost you less to fix

Hmm that's what I was thinking, would you have a rough estimate of what a decent 34 will set me back?

i spent 17500 a year ago, stock as, nothing touched not even the sound system

first thing i did was service everything, 100k service, plus every fluid, plugs, brakes, gave it a good detail and its one of the best, since then added wheels and a few other little mods and you can see the pic below :)

so yeah id say 17k, if you want a less popular colour like white maybe 15?

just dont buy off someone dodgy, someone straight up that will tell you everything about it.

and dont buy the first one you look at, look at heaps then you can tell whats good and what has had the clocks wound back, for example seats and steering wheels will be in worse condition then others and engine bays will look worse then others.

hey mate, check out my 33

in great condition, good kms for a 96 model and you'll save yourself some money

cheers, Angus

    • Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.
    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
