I thought they ran a version of the Garret T28 ... possibly... If I am wrong hopefully it will outrage an R33 owner sufficiently to post the correct answer to your question.

[AzzurrA]

no R33 owner outrage here, but an R32 owner

its really hard to say what its 'the same as', due to the fact that i believe the turbo was specced especially for the RB25...

hopefully some of the more knowledgeable members find this thread and share their wisdom!

i thought that was the s15s?

The Series 2 RB25DET comes with a Garrett T28. the same as the S15

[mad082]

r33 turbo is the same size whether its series 1 or 2. the series 2 just has a nylon compressor wheel.

or are you reffering to the series 2 being the r34 motor? which does have a slightly bigger turbo than a r33.

Yeah, I have been trying to find out for defeinite what turbo my S2 '25T has in it. I have heard people say that they have the nylon compressor wheel etc.. Is this true for sure? If so is this a bad thing, and should I be careful running more boost through it... that 2530 is beginning to look very nice ;-)

[mad082]

there is no problem with boosting up the nylon compressor wheel, because the exhaust wheel will fail well before it does.

[Chris_R33GTSt]

Cool, thanks for that mate - I reckon ill do supporting mods before I start trying to blow my turbo anyways...

Does anyone know what brand/type the stock turbo in an S2 R33 gtst or is it just generic nissan>?

Sorry about all the noob questions, but I am trying to build the rig into a very fast reliable touring car as opposed to making it a 10 second bullet.

Cheers,

Chris

[mad082]

the turbo is a hitachi or something like that i think, but not sure on that.

[Kennedy]

T3 style Hitachi

[BHDave]

Its some mongrel nissan/hitachi/garrett T3 flanged thing.

But definately not

...a Garrett T28. the same as the S15

Correct.

[Chris_R33GTSt]

So I guess id be correct in saying it will maek a really good sinker for fishing... What do ya reckon about 2530 or 2540 HKS turbos? From what I hear ppl r having good performance while still maintaining economy with these units.

I can see this becomming quite expensive~!

pm the user 'Slide' on this forum. Check out the pricing of high flowing the stocker - awesome value at under 1000 bux !!!

t25 or t3 based. some are garrett, some are hitachi

ball bearing, oil cooled, water cooled

some unknown a/r spec (we think around 0.50)

[R33S14]

Its some mongrel nissan/hitachi/garrett T3 flanged thing.

But definately not

Definately is. pulled the turbo off of a wrecked 2000 S15 Silvia 5 weeks ago and its IDENTICAL to the turbo on my Series 2 R33 RB25DET. not tryin to start shit just throwin in my 2 cents.

[R31Nismoid]

How can you say its identical when the flange is different to begin with?

[R33S14]

Like i said im not tryin to shit in anyones cheerios, but thats what i got out of my experience with both turbos.

[mad082]

the turbo on the s15 probably was a skyline turbo.
