Anyone know where to source Garrett GT turbo cartridges at a good price?

Cheers,

Phil

Nobody ever needed to buy them before?

What is a turbo cartridge exactly?

ON-UJAH

The middle bit.

Maybe try the larger turbo suppliers in the US of A?

Im not aware of anyone over here selling them at affordable prices

Most people seem to find it cheaper to scrap the turbo and buy a new one stateside!

I was gonna say, dont know anyone in particular for just cores, but any of the suppliers in Oz, Nz, or USA that do turbos will sort you out with a core for a lot cheaper than UK cowboys will.

I get on well with- www.inductionmotorsports.com, and they cheap for stuff ive ordered in the past, so theyd be a good call.

Or the guys at- www.forcedinductions.com

Cheers guys, prices over here are, shall we say, a bit steep.

Have been checking out the US suppliers, but it seems I can probably buy a couple of good used GT2835s for the same price as getting two new cartridges for them over here ...

GT2835s?
Skyline or Supra?

Stavros

Skyline.

Its Philip from the GTR board.

Philip

Skyline, Cam. It's actually up in your neck of the woods at the moment.

Its funny how many come on here
Ask the same question on the GTR Reg and one of the traders is on you like a rash.

For saying you thinking about getting one from abroad as the UK is too expensive you will have 10 people just saying how dare you say such a rude comment, 10 posts saying if you dont get one from a UK skyline dealer it will be rubbish, another 10 saying it has to be from HKS or its rubbish, and another 10 just saying "take it to abbey/rodbell/middlehurst"

Different boards have a different atmosphere, just like different bars and pubs do really.

Asked on here because I know more people here will source their own bits and do their own work - I imagine it's a legacy of GT-Rs being £50k cars in the UK not all that long ago.

But you're right
