hi

i need any turbo{preferably big} with an external wastegate for under A$100 .

also i am in VIC so i am hoping that someone from VIC could sell it to me as i wont have to spend much on postage

thanx

:confused:

anyone want to sell me an rb26?

i am a student so my budget is around $300. it doesn't have to be modded, just a stock on will do. preferrably with ECU and loom...

:)

sorry, couldn't resist :rofl:

dharvin... your best bet for $100 is an old rb20 turbo which may not be in great condition

for $100 i will give you a free smack in the face

He He He

Anyhow, cause I'm a nice guy I'll give you my stocker 32 turbo for $100, it needs a build, but thats as good as it gets.

I'd like an R34 GTR for around $6000 too :D

helloagain

no i did not forget another zero. its just that i am building a jet engine from a turbo and i am only 16 and that is around how much i can afford at the moment. i also know for a fact that brand new turbos cost in excess of $2000.

:)

sorry but its not going to happen :)

but hey, one day you will be older with a job and money and you can have any sized turbo you want!

best of luck

Warren.

Buy my turbo kit... you'll have the worlds heaviest and fastest rocket.

In any case, ease off fellas he asked a valid question. In any case, if you're after a small cheap turbo, check out some junkyards for industrial vaccumn cleaners (no shit some have turbo's on em) or very old cars and lawnmowers for medium sized (and heavy) ones. Other things to check as donors of larger turbo's... trucks, diesel van's and cars from the late 80's etc. Not exactly the worlds most refined turbo's but a decent housing, a compressor wheel and shaft you will get... enough for you to experiment with.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
