R33 Gtst Need A New Turbo - But Where To Start

[MadManz]

Hey Guyz and Galz

I have an R33 GTST Series 2

My problem is - I have some oil comming out of the intake pipe just before the throttle body.

We already have an Intercooler and 3" SS Zorst

I am after an aftermarket turbo that has roller bearings and steel wheel that will simply bolt straight up to the origional equipment otherwise i have to change everything!

I would like to get more power out of it, but have a race car for that anyway!

you thoughts and ideas would be great.

thanks

HKS 2530 -2535-2540

ITS have some good boltons also.

Get GCG to hi-flow your old turbo.

But i have been told it is better to go for a ball bearing and steel wheel rather than the origional turbo bits.

as you can see i am rather confused lol

The HKS turbos are bolton for your car and the ITS are easy conversions,the 3 HKS items i listed are different HP rateings with most ppl using the HKS2540 on RB25s.

the gcg hiflow is ball bearing and steel wheeled. how much oil is coming out? wipe it away does it come back quickly? how much boost are you running on it ?

Use the "SEARCH" button, heaps of helpful info as this topic has been discussed countless times.

Also with a turbo upgrade, you will need:

- fuel pump

- injectors

- progamable ecu (Wolf3D, Power fc, etc)

- HD clutch

- And a few others i've probably forgotten.

not heaps of oil but i want to fix it before it gets worse and puts oil all the way through the system.

and I am only running the stock boost.

I dont really want to spend $4000 on a turbo which the HKS site listed.

I am just after a good turbo that is steel wheel and roller bearing that is reasonably cheap as this is an everyday car...

I would prefer to spen 4,000 and have a supercharger hanging out of the HG's bonnet!

so just wanna get the skyline up and running with a slightly better turbo.

The GCG hi-flow is definately your best option.

Roller-bearing core and upsized steel wheels

[MadManz]

ok do you know where i may be able to find one of these?

and i dont have to change anything? except the turbo

www.gcg.com.au its a direct bolt back on. take yours off, send to gcg, when it comes back fit it back on and its done. i would confirm how much oil its leaking before you go spend $1800 on a rebuilt turbo. wipe the oil away and clean the silicon connector and drive normally and check it again in a few days

[MadManz]

ok, will do...

and i will check in a week i spose, I think its just started, I thought I should correct the issue before it gets worse

[Al]

A oil catch can, will patch up the problem till you can afford to fix the fault properly.

[MadManz]

I can afford to do it properly, just dont want to over kill it... Just keep it tight...
