And you are about to take delivery of arguably one of the most expensive to maintain used cars out there? Wow, you are going to learn real quick how in over your head you are if a set of turbos breaks you.justonebar wrote:scientist...I looked those kits. I can't drop $3-5k just for two turbos.
I have a few leads on practically new -5 from Australia and UK along with the dumps/down pipes/hard pipes for people switching to singles.
Just looking to run a safe/reliable 400hp on stock motor until I have funds for a forged rebuild.

It's not a matter of being cheap, it's being smarter about how to maximize where your dollars are spent. Why throw unnecessary thousands on aftermarket turbos when you have modest power goals? That's $$$ that could be spent elsewhere on maintenance, track seat time/performance driving instruction, or into a contingency fund.themadscientist wrote:And you are about to take delivery of arguably one of the most expensive to maintain used cars out there?

This isn't some beat up old Silvia you can keep running with frugality and crossed fingers. There are no cheap parts on a GT-R. I can go right over to Nissan and buy GT-R parts direct and the s*** still heats my wallet up.
