Me too Mick, me too! I am itching to see how the GT3586R performs, especially with the 0.85 rear. I don't know of anyone else in Australia using the same combo' as yet.

Realistically, a month or more... the new engine build isn't finished yet. Dump pipe has to be fabricated, a bunch of ceramic coating etc. It doesn't help that I like everything to look nice as well, so more polishing and ceramic coating etc. Then I have to bed the rings in, the list goes on.

Wow man, it is going to be all around monster compared to your old setup. Should have got a Super94 for it, probably drive similar (definitely not worse) and gives you the potential for 600kw lol

The FP HTA GT3586R will be the fourth turbo I've tried since I purchased the car (99% stock) in 1999 - it was less than 5yrs old at the time.

The aftermarket turbocharger industry has changed a touch over the years. I've watched prices drop by more than 1/2, available options more than double, and response and peak power rise to levels once unheard of!

I won a dyno day at the then Croydon Autosports a few months after I bought my 33, just over 200kW at the rears was enough to pip about 20 other competitors. For those that remember him/his car Mario bought the once famous 'GTR700' from the same yard some months after I bought my 33. They wanted $75k for that R33 GT-R.... it was 100% standard.

Awesome :D

Be very interesting to overlay the old RB25 + T62 with the RB30 + GT3586R - it should be a bit of a mindblowing comparison.... bearing in mind they are both 62mm turbos!

Easy done, I'll be using the same dyno I've used for many years so I can load up my old file and overlay with the new one. Shaun (workshop and dyno owner) probably still has dyno runs from the previous turbo too - very old school Garrett T3/T04E combo'.

    • Well, fun day was had, I finally found a house that will do me just fine, 1980's brick build, but with full fresh renovations, plus new colour bond fencing all round so puppies are incoming 🐕, and water tanks for the garden, and it's located in West Goulburn..... @Duncan 🫡, so day trips to Wakie to watch cars going Zoom will be on the cards In the end it cost well under my budget and was actually better than alot of the more expensive joints I was looking at, it is in a good area, close enough to the shops, public transport, and the Wollondilly River Weir,  and the great walking paths along the river, but far enough away from town to see minimal traffic The deposit is dropped, the conveyancer is conveyancing and I should get the keys in a week or 2 as the property is currently unoccupied  As with everything I own, I'm doing up a modifications list, as it doesn't have solar, that is first up on the big list, all of the panels and enough batteries to keep the joint warm, or cool, followed by a largish carport out the front, the small list, which will start as soon as I have keys, is some security stuff, like cameras, screens, and the usual "crazy prepper" additions that weird old people like (mouse holes to stick shot guns out of, and the usual man traps that the average person installs for the unsuspecting and unwanted guests 🤣) The gardens front and back are OK, but, not to my standards or liking, so landscaping will be a fun job to start getting into, so when spring is sprung I'll do a heap of planting, lots of natives and vegetables is the plan, the old owners were more "Old English Garden" type, so basically Roses and other weird looking things that are destined for the green waste bin One thing that is staying garden wise is a nice established hedge out the front, it is about 5 foot tall and covers the whole front of the property from prying eyes As for the car hoist, the roof in the garage has some height to it, but, I'll need to get an installer out to see what can be done, width wise may be a issue, but my building inspector will be getting back to me over the next week with his recommendations  Small, but cosy
