T28 - GT28RS - Groupbuy?

[SpottedMango]

I have been seeing a lot of people that are needing T28s to serve as replacements for their dying T25 or T28s. If I can get enough interest, 4~5 serious parties, I will see what I can do and hook everyone with some great prices.

This will be for those people that are interest in GT-28RS, which are known to be a 'little' larger then your S15 T-28s. Once we get enough people, I can have the turbos in hand within 7 days.

So, for those that are interested, let me see what I can do for you guys. Not here to make a profit, just serving the community that I belong to.

The normal average pricing for this particular turbo is right around $1200 + shipping. This is what people refer to as the Disco Potato and can support up to 330ish wheel horse power.

Let me know what kind of interest there are.

Here are the prices guys - In order of bignesssss.


GT2560R (AKA GT28R) - Somewhat equivilant to the S15 turbo, good for up to 310 whp =
ATP Turbo = $935.00 + shipping
Enjuku Racing = N/A
Our Price = $755 shipped


GT2860RS (AKA GT28RS) - good for up to 330~350 whp =
ATP Turbo = $1175.00 + shipping
Enjuku Racing = $1199.99 + shipping
Our Price = $971 shipped


GT2871R - good for 400ish whp =
ATP Turbo = $1190.00 + shipping
Enjuku Racing = $1199.99 + shipping
Our Price = $999.99 shipped

I'd be interested in 2 gt28rs turbos depending on price

[adrian_302]

im really interested but cant buy one now =(

[burgy240]

I really want the t2871r but would be happy with this one if not. keep me posted!

[SpottedMango]

Joe, we can do it, as long as we have 5 interested parties, we can go with just about any turbo.

[ALLEN P.]

im interested i need a t28 replacement fast

[SpottedMango]

I will get some prices later on today and I will let everyone know what I can do on them.

[ALLEN P.]

im in if you can get one for less than 1000 just talked to someone on the phone

[SpottedMango]

Thanks for the interest man, I will get prices before 2pm today.

[burgy240]

Sweet! I'm in

[SpottedMango]

Thanks Joe, give me till this afternoon for some prices.

Prices I will be getting are -
GT28RS
GT28R
GT2871R

[burgy240]

No prob. Thank YOU!! :lol:

[SpottedMango]

Prices updated.

[adrian_302]

do they all bolt on? or would i need some aftermarket parts to make it work, also id prolly need 550cc injectors right?

[pheobo]

Here is my vote...

Ian buys 2 2871's and slaps them on as twins into the GS. I just happen to know someone with a HKS twin kit minus turbos taking up space in his garage.

[burgy240]

ARRRGH, I can't decide to splurge and get the gt2871R or just go low budget for now and get the gt2560r?...... Nice work though Ian. I will let you know ASAP.

[SpottedMango]

GT2871 = injectors, a form of fuel computer, lines, fittings, intake piping, etc = $$$$

GT28R = run on stock injectors, then upgrade when you have money.

In another words, if you have the $$$, go big, do it right the first time, if you don't have the money, go with the cheaper route.

[SpottedMango]

90 whp power difference........would be a hard choice.

[burgy240]

I'm goign to go with the GT28R.... I just don't have the cash right now.

[SpottedMango]

You are making the correct choice. 300whp is still FUN!

[SpottedMango]

Kinda funny that you chimmed in here on a shop forum, trying to 'compete' with us, when you price is over $200 more then what our prices are.

Try again.

i can get a gt2871r with precision internals for 1200 if anyone is interested its good for 440whp and gt35r same way for 1500 good for idk how much hp i can get more details if anyone is interested

[Shadytrixta1]

You told me on the phone you could get it for $1000 all day long and would only buy one if it was cheaper.So now the price is upped to $1200?

[ALLEN P.]

oh that wass you i was talkin to yea i can get it for a 1000 from cfp but then i talked to a guy i work with at gearhead and he said he could get it even cheaper + it will have precision internals and spool faster im not payin 1200 i get it at cost

[pheobo]

oooooo.... a GT turbo with PT internals...

So let me guess this same friend of yours will sell you 2jz internals for your RB and make it good too 800 WHP.

Your a FUCKING RETARD! Go away...

DC, why do you guys even acknowledge this guy?

Listen, I'll make you guys a deal... tell him you know a guy that has an ever sweeter turbo for $100 less... I'll go on ebay and get some "sweeter turbo" I'll sell it to him as a GT with PT internals and I'll hook you guys up with dinner.

Neg rep points for this idiot!

[Z_LiFe]

Will I be able to get the GT2871R turbo with the GT28R style compressor housing and .64 Turbine housing A/R?

your a dick its a guy i work with you can kiss my ass i was just trying to put it out there to help anyone that might be interested and you guys have to be dicks about it

[pheobo]

your a dick its a guy i work with you can kiss my ass i was just trying to put it out there to help anyone that might be interested and you guys have to be dicks about it

I'm only a dick to MORONS. You're an idiot too.

Your not helping anyone without posting specs on what your offering, just cluttering this thread like me!

When you say you guys were being dicks, I'm the only one being a dick. Everyone at DC as been way to professional and nice to you for wasting there time.

Don't get in on this group buy, at these prices there will be plently of people willing to jump in on it. Go spend an extra couple hundred on a non existant turbo from ebay, huh I mean from your friend at work.

[burgy240]

your a dick its a guy i work with you can kiss my ass i was just trying to put it out there to help anyone that might be interested and you guys have to be dicks about it

You might want to re-examine this entire thought process, You butt in on a group buy for a local shop and then you offer an item, without credibility, for a price that is higher than the ones posted in the group buy thread??? :nuts: I'm not being a dick right now but you might want to question your rationale behind that??? If you really thought about it I'm sure you could have gotten your point across a lot better, and if you couldn't, then it probably means your entire point was hugely misguided.:roll:

DC-Thanks for the hookup, let us know when you need hard money, order dates, potential delivery etc... Thanks again

[ALLEN P.]

just wanted to say that i have no problem with the guys at DC i didnt mean to make it come across as a competition i was just trying to do the same thing and help ppl out thank you for your help


P.S>pheobo i still think your an asshole
and it wasn't your place to step in


Allen P

[burgy240]

No problem man... Thanks.

DC--let me know when we are getting this ordered. I have a large cash deposit I would like to place :lol:

[Z_LiFe]

I'm in for 2 turbos let me know when we can do this. I need the turbos asap.

[SpottedMango]

We have -

Z_Life = X2
Burgy240 = X1

[adrian_302]

let me pay in installments and ill buy one :P

[I'm Phucked]

holy FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF on that 2871 price. Nice Pm'd

[Z_LiFe]

someone else jump in on this awesome deal so we can order the turbos already

[SpottedMango]

All right guys, looks like we have 4 turbos committed as of right now and I have told people to whom I have spoke to that once we get 4, I will order another for stock. So, as of right now, we have the # that we need in order to get the prices that I quoted. Let's get this done.

I consider this as a favor to my customers and with that in mind, I would prefer cash, check, and or a form of certified payment. If you have to use a credit card (we take them all), then I will have to add a 3% charge on VISA, MASTER, and Discovery and for Amex, we have to add 4%.

[pheobo]

Sweet, some 4 lucky people. Ian, you should be ordering 6!


just wanted to say that i have no problem with the guys at DC ...

P.S>pheobo i still think your an asshole
and it wasn't your place to step in

Allen P

You've gained a little respect from me for stepping up in this post. Not that you care...
I AM an asshole and don't give a shit if it's my place or not to step in, I did & enjoyed it at your expense.

Cheers,
- Daniel

[ALLEN P.]

dickhead^ i dont give a damn wether or not i earned your respect

[Hostetler]

dickhead^ i dont give a damn wether or not i earned your respect

stop while your still behind

[I'm Phucked]

Why is there bitching in a groupbuy thread?

[SpottedMango]

I've been too lazy to go and delete any posts. I think all bitching, etc are said and done with, let's keep the remaining of this thread clean.

Let's get this Groupbuy going, since I believe we have the amount of turbos needed to place the order, I will start this GB today - 3/19/07 and end it - 3/26/07. For those that are looking to get these turbos ASAP, I will placing the order as soon as I get your payment.

Let me know guys.

[Jordan T]
