It was done a while ago, bout 6 months now. If it was just done I would have told him to get it replaced with a gtst one. Im a bit disappointed by the whole incident, and yes, he did charge me for the braided lines, a couple of hundred if I recall correct. He's fairly genuine though so I dont think he tried to rip me off. Pity it has taken me this long to realize this though.

Yeh Roy it needed a fair bit of work to hook it up, It needed custom braided/housing lines (cant quite remember what the're called, Im a newb to this) to fit. Dont ask me why he got this turbo for me, although I did specify to him that I wanted a turbo with minimal lag/ good midrange response. I did specify a gtst hiflow but perhaps he didnt realise till he got it and tried to fit it that gtr turbos arnt the same (he's a guru with soarers, but not as knowledgable with skylines).

Thanks for the replies guys, although this has kinda got me bit depressed. Better talk to my friend and see what 'high flowed' exactly means in regards to my unit. Hopefully my turbos internals (housing and compressor) have been upsized.

T28? so Im assuming then the turbos internals are similar in size, this is the same size of the internals found in the GTST turbos is it not. Thanks for the reply Busky2k. Does anyone else know if things like compressors and housing are actually smaller?

Hi Guys, am asking more specifically about r33 gtr and gts-t turbos. Can anyone tell me differences between the two. Are they similar in specs (ie.. are internals the same or similar between the two). I know for a fact that the housing lines (I think thats what the're called) are different, but are there any other major differences between the two. From what I've read recently it sounds like the turbos on the GTR's are smaller units. Reason I ask is that when I first got my 'line turbo started to go and I got my mech. friend to get me a hi flowed r33 unit. To cut a long story short, he ends up fitting a high flowed GTR unit instead of a GTS-t type one. I'm just wondering if Ive been disadvantaged in any ways with this one (eg.. less airflow). Any help appreciated.

Hi guys! Theres a video clip out on the net somewhere that shows a R34 (I think its a r34) gtr hitting 328km/h in some famous tunnel in the UK. Dunno how modified this R34 was but the footage is pretty fantastic, the camera guy loses visibility of the gtr as he flies past him, him traveling so fast and all. Pretty good to watch.

Series 1 nizmokid, but as with 95'R33's has the series two rear spoiler and drivers airbag. Got type-M (I think thats what its called front end), which means that the front end is a little diff from your stock series 1. Some people refer to 95 model as series 1.5.

Its hard to tell how much of a difference it makes, as it was there when I bought the car. Supposedly, they are really good, not just for handling, but also for safety considerations, as it strengthens the whole body.

In the boot Nizmokid, just behind the partition between the boot and battery compartment. My cars at the panel beaters right now and I cant for the life of me remember exactly where its bolted onto. From memory, I think its on the back part of the panel that surrounds the suspension rig (shockers and springs).

If Im not mistaken, NA supras run the 100 in high 6's and the quarter in about 15sec. Meaning the're around about on par with stock r32 gts-t's and a bit quicker than stock NA r33's (0-100 in low 7's/ mid 15's quarter mile). I saw the stats in one of the import performance mags a little while back, comparing NA supras with r33 GTS's.
