all 3sgte's are jap spec. (we never got them new)

early one ('90-93) uses ct26, post '94 uses ct20.

Just thought I'd say that the 3SGTE was sold in Aus in the GT4. (gotta love not having a speed limiter)

I just think of the ST205 => era when thinking CT20. The older CT26 turbo is a fair performer when hi-flowed properly and can keep mod costs down due to not needing new manifolds. (downpipe is a must though, which could be said for all turbos anyway) Watch stock ceramic CT26's though, without care they will shatter. It's happened to me Sad

The ceramic turbo's back then would spool up heaps quicker than the old metal ones due to the lower inertia, but these days the new breed are hi-tech computer designed and therefore much more efficient and lighter.
