Hey Guys,

Looking into buying a garett turbo off a BA Falcon.

All i know is that these turbos are ball bearing .

Ive been told they are gt35's but im not too sure....also have been told that exhaust housing is to big for what i want and need to change it.

How would this turbo go with a rb25?

Any1 used 1 or heard of any1 using one?

What would be a decent price to pick this turbo up for? (the one my mate has in brand new )

Any info would help?

Cheers

the GT35 is wicked for the RB25/30's. Very well suited.

Dim, for the RB25 i'd be looking at the smaller GT30 .82 rear housing

Cant remember the comp wheels.

You'd also need a nice strong motor to make the most of even that turbo too IMO

If you get a Performance place to buy the turbo, a GT30 can be had, trade, for around 2k flat, brand new... give or take depending on the prices at the time etc etc.

We will have them new soon for around 2K new.Listed as a GT35 rated at 500hp.

hmmm.. sounds good - thats pretty damn good for an internally gated turbo of that size.

i would think it would be a little laggy on a rb25det though(?)

      Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
