This has hardly done any miles at all, no more than a 1000.
Comes with -34 Actuator
£1000 (Cost me £1400)

 

did it cost you 1400 pounds mate?
my god.thats alot.
im getting a new gt30bb turbo with internal wastegate and all complete, for 1000pounds

sorry off topic mate.at least i bumped your thread.hehe

 

Yep it I bought it back in 2003 but it has done less than 1000 Miles.
I got it before the GT series had been released at the time it was the turbo to have!
Rich

 

they are still a lot to buy now,£1300-£1400.

the gt turbos are cheaper yes.

 

I would have had it but I've just bought one, good luck with the sale mate

 

Wot size rear housing is that m8.

Steve

 

The Turbine housing is .63
you can just make it out in the last photo if you stand on your head
Cheers Rich

 

you get what you pay for in this life

 

thought t4s had a different exhaust housing than that looks like a t35 63housing to me

 

mine has a 2 part exhaust hsing if that helps

 

so you are saying the gt series is crap?
sorry off topic.heh

 

its more the prices themselves that has dropped alot on turbos
its almost the same as computer and high tech stuff.its not as expensive as it used to be...dont have to go back more than 3-5 years.then it was a totally other ballgame.

 

I'm pretty sure this is a genuine T4, if a prospective buyer wants to come and check it out I would have no problems.
In the short life it's had on the car it produced 480 BHP which is well over what T34 could do (I Think).
But I'm going for the 600 BHP mark now so it's got to make way for a GT35.
Cheers Rich

 

Why has the compressor housing been welded then machined for the compressor wheel ?

 

No idea, what does that mean?
Cheers Rich

 

loks like a micky mouse one m8

 

Bugger!! It's got all the Garrett Stamps in the right places as well.
I'll stick it on Ebay and see what it makes.
Rich

 

m8 it looks like a t38 from turbo tec

 

I thought that too.

Steve

 

I thought the t38 from TT had Turbo technics cast into the compressor housing?

 

dont look anything like my tt t38....

 

Has anyone got a photos of a T4?
Because it cost me alot of money and i'm not gonna be happy if it's a fake!!
It certainly doesn't look like any T34 i've seen.
Cheers Rich

 

its not an RS500 type T4 - as mentioned the exhaust housing is 2 piece on them with the wastegate fitted in the secondary part - looks to be a hybrid of some type with a t34 .63 exhaust housing.

 

It looks the same as the one on the white saph in the for sale section and thats stated as a T4.

Steve

 

It does look very similar:

 

not saying they are crap but they arent rebuildable so once theyre fukd you chuck them

the old trusty t4 is still big bucks 20 years on cause its a great turbo

 

heres some pics of mine,i'm pretty sure mine is a gen one.






thats my new one above and this is the one i have on my car at the moment.





hope these help.

 

certainly looks different to any of the T4's I have had on my car...

 

sure it not a t34 with a t4 front housing welded up to fit etc...

 

Thats what i thought Dave, by the weld and the housing, i reckon a T34 hybrid,

If it is i feel sorry for the guy, means its worth no more than about 400

 

Dave mine looks identical to yours and im assured it's a proper one

 

anyboby know the spec of T4 or T38? I mean the size of wheels or turbo maps.

 

does any1 know where i can get a wastegate housing like on the T4 above?
i have a T4 with the 2 part wastegate but i dont have a cossie wastegate capsule, i have a 3" V band fitting, obviously i would prefer a cossie 3 bolt 1.

any idea?
cheers

 

Dont know but if you need to sell the 2 part exhaust housing let me know .

 

[quote="dave cos4x4"]heres some pics of mine,i'm pretty sure mine is a gen one.

that is the version with the bigger comp wheel too isnt it dave

 

that aint a t4 comp wheel...mines much bigger than that,hoever my compressor housing looks similar,but without the welded bit.....

 

abdr500

not too sure mate.

 

i am sure it has the bigger comp wheel in it

 

turbo dynamics in poole do the rear housing still

 

thats one of the first t38s or like said just a 34 with t4 comp housing but it wouldnt do 480bhp if a 34 so rekon its an early 38.only worth bout 400 sheets
