anyone used these setups before for an rb30 or any in general? chasing a half budget combo!! any ideas lads cheers brownie

what is your budget? and what do you want to get? have you looked for 2nd hand near new stuff that might suit your budget?

combo i was looking at is a gt3582r external topmount manifold and wastegate to suit!! already got computer and sorced injectors pump rail etc!! just dont wana get a S*&^ turbo but also dont wanna spend $1500 just on a turbo (would like to?)! bout $3500 for turb mani wgate injects rail pumps reg etc

Within reason you get what you pay for. Go cheap and expect to be disappointed after things never quite achieve what you expected and then break...

isn't slide gear usually china copies? http://www.slideindustries.com.au/category_s/1870.htm wouldn't touch with a 10ft pole. The kit isn't even worth paying $1500 for.... - At least look around, get a quality manifold (2nd hand?) and get something like a Precision turbo off ebay..I dunno what spec, something with about 60-something-mm wheel...I dunno the name because they're so f*cking confusing...but a non-ball bearing can be had for less than a grand and it's quality still..buy a Tial gate from NZ for like $400 delivered. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Precision...item33812a1386 (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Precision-6266-Billet-CEA-Turbo-T3-SP-Compressor-Cover-V-Band-82-A-R-IN-STOCK-/221210350470?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item33812a1386) ^ Look them up.

do what he says. precision around abouts a 6266 or there abouts. journal bearing is good. cant go wrong. buy china and prepare to spend more than you save on fixing ****.

It's the fact they try to sell the products as a "GT3582".....the turbo itself is probably worth a few hundred dollars, the manifold a couple hundred and likewise the gate.
