Whats involved fitting Gu td42 turbo kit on to gq td42?

[Deano2506]

I'm looking into buying a full turbo kit off a gu for $1200.
Wondering if anyone else has done this and what's involved?
It's a silvertop with 190000 ks
Runs sweet as
Already has 2 3/4 exhaust system

Pretty much exactly the same mate.

You'll have to feed oil to it from the bung on LHS engine mount on the silver top and tap an oil drain into the sump.

You'll also have to mod up some coolant feed and drain lines but easily done.

What turbo kit is it? Comes with Inter cooler and piping too?

Bit of a read but link below for a GU HT18 turbo onto a silver top td42 NA will show you.

Thanks for the info.
It's a factory early non intercooled gu set up.
Are they all watercooled?

Some are and some aren't.

$1200 is up on the high side of the price. How many kms has it got?

Does it come with everything, cross over pipe, etc.

The link I gave above is your turbo...

Oh you also need the manifold. Does that price come with the manifold?
