I know this is a different turbo, but a mate had his CT26 highflowed to a TO4e, on his GT4. I was expecting bigger lag cause it had bigger wheels both sides put in.

But to my supprise it spooled up quicker than the standard one did and pulled much much harder (and could go to 19psi with on worries.

Now I'm not sure if this will be the case with the one you have Meg's, but it might be worth looking into.

Looks like 200rwkw is very easy to get on the highflowed ones (damn I'd love to have 200rwkw 8O ).

BTW: if anyone wants the CT26 of my mates, I'm sure he would get rid of it.

How much does he want for the turbo.

GTS32t,

I'll find out today for you. Just for info, it came off of a MR2 turbo, ATM in standard form it has a ceramic exhaust wheel, NON ball bearing, and pretty sure the mounts are TO4 (can someone confirm this???), but I'll measure them up.

The motor it came off of had done 94,000km, and the motor was in good nik, so I'd say it was treated good.

GTS32t,

I had a chat to him, he is a bit reluctant to sell it but he said make an offer and he'll see what he thinks. He said that when he was looking for a duel entry turbo CT26 he was quoted between $600-800 for a second hand one (he told me to mention this :roll: :roll: )

I can arrange pics if you want some.

I had my RB25DET turbo high flowed and it still spooled up at the same time and was able it push upto 20psi no probs. However I've be told time and time again there is no need to go above 18psi so for now I sit on 14psi and achieve 207rwkw... I did upgrade the injectors to 740cc Nismo's with 700hp pump and reg.. just for the growth to 300rwkw one day me hopes.. currently rebuilding a RB25DET to do the job.

GCG highflowed mine for about $1250inc

the vg 30 is the turbo off the nissan vg30 det engine not the twin turbo one. they are a big t3 and stock they can hit around 180-190 rwkw you put the big wheels in and the skyis the limit trymei's t3/t4 hybrid is based on the vg 30 turbo and he got 210 rwkw @ 14 psi I think and you can do that with out injectors.

as for bd4's your on a good thing there I think.

I have rebuilt a VG30 turbo with steel wheels and it made an eas :closedeyes: y 200kw, however if you rebuilt either yours or a VG30 it will not be much different. However remember if you change the turbo you will need to retune your computer to make the most of your change, if you dont you actually make make less power. So change one thing and you will have to change other parts as well nothing is a simple plug and play to get the most out of it.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
