"Yes ... Many", said GTB after contemplating the question.

Why not just drop in a stock mount turbo like an AVO400S or GT pump GT02 maybe etc etc?
Be a lot less headaches and while more expensive than the VF34 should perform better...

Many things to do before turbo changes. Was interested in other's opinions as I'm aware that it's the turbo's mounting on the Liberty that causes issues.

Small update:

Brembo calliper pickup Sat (Thanks to Spikey)
Goodrich stainless braided brake lines ordered.
Dog Bones ordered.
Colour decided - BLACK with Sti logo (although the standard was Black for the Tuned by Sti Liberty MY08 with white Brembo logo). Doing so just to be different.



Now to decide on rotors and pads. Thinking either DBA or Dixcel for rotors. Pads & rotor decision might be dependent on costs ATM.

Current best pricing:


Street Series T2 slotted F $201 R $154

4000 Series T3 slotted F $216 R $277

5000 Series T3 slotted F $424


That's per rotor. Anyone know of better pricing?

Any further advice?

QFM A1RM's are a fantastic street/occasional track-type pad. Can't go wrong for the money.

Rotors I can only comment on the DBA's. 4000's again good for street/occasional track thrash.

Pretty sure Dave used to run Dixcel's on his STI Lib's brembos.

Lots of like Andrew.

Oh and yes....TD05-18G, will make you smile. **edit** more than welcome to come for spin to see if you likey an 18G.

"Im" "not too sure" but "td-05 18g" sounds "pretty good"
