QQQQ, I garantee this turbo is not a Chinese Turbo, infact I purchased it direct from Garrett in the USA. The writing in the front cover has been sanded off for a smooth polished finish.

Here is a photo of it before the polishing.

The polishing was done by a friend of mine who polishes show cars and bikes as a full time job for a living!

I am open to offers however I have already been offered $1800 but looking at a little bit more.

This turbo is worth $3000 trade price + $200 for this show polish!

Cheers

Sam

Well put it this way, i have a frined of mine here is Brisbane in a Datsun wagon that has an internally stock (just forged pistons and rods) SR20DET .

He has a GT42 Compressor with a GT40 turbine, he at full boost (25psi) by 4600rpm

So i dare say that the extra air flow and 600cc capacity of the RB26 would counteract the smaller exhaust turbine. I would expect similar results.

Thanks for the bump.

Guys I need to sell this turbo as I have already purchased a replacment.

Here is what i am offering.

Hey for $2085 I'll do:

1. GT42 Turbo ($3050)

2. Show Polished Front Cover ($200)

3. Postage to you ($30-50)

4. 5" SS USA made exhaust V-Band ($130)

5. 5" SS 15cm Long flared pipe to suit above V-band and Turbo.

So for what i paid $3500 for new you get for $2085 new unused.

Here are some more pictures to put it in perspective, i don't think people understand just how big it is.

Rear dump pipe comparrison with a AA battery. Note the rear wheel is 88mm so its looks much smaller there due to perspective.

Front polished cover (batteries not included) Comes free with a book on "how not to suck up pedestrians"

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
