hey guys,

i was just wondering if there is a difference between the turbo on a R33 GTR and GTST i have searched for the dimentions every where but i cant find them. A mate said that the GTR turbo is smaller is that true? would putting one on a gtst 2 replace a stuffed turbo work?.

cheers.

All GTR's have the RB26DETT Engine, where as the R33 GTS-T has a RB25DET . The difference between these two othen that the displacement is that the GTR Engine (RB26DETT) is Twin turbo not single turbo like its baby brother (RB25DET).

As for the sizing of the turbo.... one or both of the GTR turbos may be slightly smaller to spool up quicker then a single turbo . Im not sure on this.

GTR's have 2 same sized turbos that are smaller than the RB25 turbo.

The GTR flanges are also smaller than RB25 so without adaptors simply will not fit.

I think the Rb25 has T3/T4 flanges and the RB26 is T28, and hope someone clarifies (I don't waste time memorizing such useless info).

      Troubleshooting - motor wont turn over

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I have seen a case where the starter motor shorting against the casing caused a massive voltage drop + so much EMI that it caused all the sensors to spew garbage data at the ECU. Test the battery to make sure it has acceptable CCA/capacity first, I have gotten "brand new" batteries before that couldn't even power a 10W light bulb without dying probably because it sat in a warehouse too long without being charged. Only easy way to diagnose this 100% is put an oscilloscope on the battery and also look at key sensors to see if there's any clues.

      There's a bunch of smaller shops that don't quite attract Singer money but are still hiring from that same pool of labor. Those are the body shops that you go to when you can't afford a Singer, but your old Porsche needs some serious bodywork. You can't exactly take those cars to the usual insurance body shops. When I say restomod, I mean they'll do something other than 100% OEM/OEM-equivalent aftermarket parts R&R. In the Porsche world this would be stuff like taking a 50k 964, doing a bunch of deferred maintenance/unwinding the nightmares the previous owners did to the car because a lot of people that own these cars tended to be penny wise, pound foolish types, then maybe some relatively simple off the shelf modifications to things like suspension, transmission, engine, headlights, etc. and you've spent 130k USD. When even the worst houses in the poor neighborhoods are worth 1M USD and the nice houses in wealthy neighborhoods are worth 3-10M USD suddenly 130k spent on a 50k car seems cheap.

      Troubleshooting - motor wont turn over

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Hoping to get a few ideas to help troubleshoot this issue, I'll try to keep it short.  A mate popped the motor in his 2018 LDV T60 with the 2.8 turbo diesel motor. He swapped it and I was his phone a friend when he got stuck.  The new motor is in, however it won't fire. The battery is literally brand new, when you crank it the volts very quickly (say 2 seconds of cranking) drop to 8 volts and the engine stops turning over. Watching the belts, I'd say they move about 5cm before coming to a stop. We put a booster pack on, no change.  The only potential issue I'm aware of is, when we pulled the motor the grounding strap was still attached. The strap copped a thrashing before we realised what was going on. It looks okay-ish but it's going to be replaced to rule it out.  The main challenge is, I wasn't there for 90% of the work. This is his first time doing any major work on a car and he was learning as he was going. He thinks everything has been put back together properly, however I'm not entirely confident that this is the case.  It would be good to get some ideas about what else to check. The car isn't spitting any codes so that doesn't help.  I've attached a photo, because why not lol.

      Did anyone here buy the crashed N1 R32 GTR at auction?

      I mean an N1 came with a minimal paint thickness compared to dealer models. It’s probably had a ton of vinyls and stuff possible a race paintjob or two over the years. you don’t buy an N1 for its stunning good looks or comfort 🤣 you buy it to send it and measure how much air you can get on the hill at Bathurst

      Yeah, but "restomod" implies Singer and things like it, which implies drug money / trust fund maturity.
