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(?)

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
