I've been curious if anyone on here runs these turbos, or if anyone has a link to info on using them on a 300ZX. I was checking out the prices on the S14/5 Sylvia turbos and haven't found a whole lot of info on using them on a Z32. The search feature on here or twinturbo.net isn't the best and I figured someone on here would have a link to info on someone who has used them or tried them and failed.

Yeah a pic/link would be nice

I'm guessing you're looking at s13 turbos because they're cheaper?

I wasn't referring to a specific turbo someone had locally for sale or something, but just the ball bearing S14/15 Sylvia turbos. Which when I thought about it, I just looked up on Courtesy Parts and are apparently GT28R or RS. Even looked up Disco Potatoes people were selling new to see if that'd be cheaper than getting like a Z1 GT535R through 675RS.

Now I'm thinking I'd rather just sell/trade the car and get a nice VIP luxo cruiser or something with a little more room...it costs too damn much to play with one of this Z32 lol
