Can this really be that cheap?? - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #20207 8 posts Started by biglipzit
I found this T3/T4 turbo on ebay but it seems to be incredibly cheap and the seller seems to only have positive seller ratings...

If link is dead then go to www.ebay.com and search for
"Brand New T3/T4 T3/T04e hyrbid Garret 57 trim turbo!!"

Just copy and past what is in the inverted commas.

Found another.

The second one is wayy too big for the 5sfe/7afe engine. the first one is pushing it, but doable on a 5s; and way out of range for a 7a
Yeh i know they are huge but i mean that price??? Is it for real? Should i bid... I might be buying an FTO next month...
wow. an FTO? as in you're going to import an FTO? that'd be hot. I expect pics. ;]
thats an awesome price.
The 57 trim is notorious for compressor surge on the 3sgte forums.

lol nah not import.. we have 5 imported ones here already... My neighbour is moving away to england soon and he will be getting rid of his own. I will deffinantly post pics if i get it.
Well this is the turbo i already have... Not too sure about it but maybe someone here can give me advice on what specs it may have.

It has an A/R .51 compressor housing and a A/R .38 turbine housing.

Here are the pics.
