So can anyone answer my final question, Is the turbo on the R34 steel or ceramic? i was told steel but am unsure? Thanx :P

Nylon compressor and a ceramic turbine wheel. Been covered plenty of times. Use the search button.

No probs :D

Bear in mind the search function defaults to looking for posts in the last 30 days. You generally may need to search more posts than that (e.g. the last six months). Also read the "Advanced Usage Help" in the search page for some guidance.

For your query I looked for:

+r34 +turbo +ceramic

and searched within the last 90 days.

just did a bit more reading and am a little confused, there are 3 series of the R34, Series 1 has a ceramic inner, S2 has a twin ceramic/steel? and s3 has a garrett. Now my questions lie in the engines,are the ones with the Red lettering on the engine Series 1? and do all the turbos produce the same sound/power? i drove a 99 R34 which had the red lettering on the engine and was satified with the car as a whole,it had a Nismo kit and had the nice dials of the S2 without the two tone steering wheel??. Any help dudes would be appreciated :D

Thanks for the link :D , but thats the one i read briefly and got confused due to the different Series models of the R34. Clicking on one of the links gives 3 diffrent turbo's used in the R34 throughout there span, my questions originally were based upon sound/power created by each turbo. :P

    • Just had a look, they don't. Fuelling on the base map is purely alpha-N, and the ignition table is MAP. Remember it's just a base map to get the car moving  
    • Hi everyone, I’m Dave from Canberra. Here's a few pics of my 1992 R32 GTST coupe which I imported back in 2006. Only mods so far are HKS Hi-power cat back exhaust, K&N filter, ATC Volanti steering wheel, Pioneer stereo, amp and sub. This was my daily driver up until 2015 and sadly hasn’t been driven at all in the last 5 years due to marriage, work, and kids taking up most of my time and spare cash.As such its in need of a bit of TLC and one of my goals for this year is to get it back to running condition and maybe look into club/historic rego. I’ve joined SAU so I can ask a few questions along the way (although I promise to google Current Problem +SAU beforehand!)
    • From talking to the mx5 guys the NC doesn't actually need bonnet vents like the earlier NA and NB models, due to a better designed cooling system and undertray design There's plenty of them used as street cars and weekend track toys running anywhere from around 170 to 250kw with stock non vented bonnets, I initially was going to get some bonnet vents, but, as they are not actually required, I'll put vents on hold for a while and just monitor temps, though I do need to get something to actually monitor engine oil temps though, coolant temp can be pulled from the OBD2, but the oil gauge in the car is not actual oil temp, it is only a calculation based off coolant temp and RPM ☹️ They do recommend upgrading the radiator, which I have already done with a triple pass, and the only other thing they recommend for a street car is heat management, like I talked about above to protect bits in the engine bay from radiant heat, and to either replace the nearly 20 year old plastic coolant expansion tank, which I have done, or get a aftermarket alloy jobbie for some bling They did also say that if I wanted to track the car on occasion a oil cooler and sump baffle would be required, and as I already have had a sump baffle installed when the engine was out......... I'm going to get a oil cooler with a thermostat....... just in case I do eventually track the car, but probably not, but still maybe...🤪
