Hi All,

I am looking at upgrading my turbo and have had a search through a few previous threads as to where is the cheapest places to source a turbo kit for my r34 gtt.

As a result I got in contact with Paul from street to track however he is no longer dealing garrett turbo chargers.

I was wondering where everyone sources their turbo kits from and if they would be able to point me in the right direction.

I am looking at doing a garrett gt3071r externally waste gated meaning I am going to need manifold, wastegate, dump pipe and intake pipe.

Can anyone help me out here ?

I know GCG do a high mount kit for around $3,800 but surely there must be a cheaper way to acquire the kit.

GT3071r is a poor choice (these days) for an RB25. Same sized billet compressor from any of a range of other turbo suppliers will make more power, or alternatively a smaller billet compressor for the same power will have better response. Get hot side set up to match, and you'll enjoy it a lot better.

So, go look at the Hypergear stuff (there's a massive thread dedicated to it) and if need be contact Stao and tell him your requirements and see what options he has for you. Which is a lot, by the way.

Then there is also the option of the FP HTA stuff, and a few other vendors of highly developed turbos. No-one should be addicted to using raw Garrett stuff any more.

Really, has Garrett fallen that far behind? It just seems to be the most popular choice in the rb25 dyno threads and from speaking to people.

If I was to go for a hyper gear turbo can anyone suggest where I can source intake pipe, dump pipe and manifold from in Sydney ?

Hypergears is a bolton turbo. you will need few silicon hoses to make a induction pipe and thats pretty much it. I personally vote for SS1PU super responsive 260rwkws

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
