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(?)

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.

      A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.

      Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.

      Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?
