hi everyone

i have for sale a T78-33D turbo. i bought it a while ago and was going to strap it onto my rb25det motor, but have since changed my mind and working on a more "cost-effective" project, i have no use for it anymore.

i originally paid $1800 for it and am now looking to unload it for $1000.

i've had the copressor housing polished up and it looks pretty good.

the turbo is in good condition and i cant feel any shaft play what so ever. the v-band flange on the exhaust housing has been cut off by the previous owner, so the new dump pipe would have to be welded on. otherwise i've been quoted $20 bucks to weld another v-band flange on. so either way shouldnt be much of a hassel.

thanks for your time

ben

this the same turbo as on CODE 45 yes? it was on stock motor with low boost and made 330kw? so would this be ok on my 32 gtr with supportingh mods do u think???>

not sure as to CODE 45. but it will be fine gtr, as long as you have the supportings mods to be able to produce this sort of power. i belive the turbo is rated at 700hp so 330kw seems quite realistic

hope that helps

Just to confirm this is the same turbo and with the same style setup it will make around the same power.. 330rwkw will be a breaze.

would come on boost about 4500rpm right

im not sure man, i can only talk from previous experience where i had a "chinese turbo" straped to a rb25. its boost cam on at about 4500rpm, however the t78-33d exhaust housing is smaller then the "chinese" one.

so i'd dare say with slightly more capacity you probably would be look a littel earlier then 4500rpm

hope that helps

    • More than happy with the colour match Talking to the painter he recommended to give the top a few weeks for the paint to 100% cure prior to sealing it with the ceramic stuff Also, because why not..... I have a fancy pants Fluidampr harmonic balancer on order, the 2.5 engine uses the OEM 2.0 balancer off the old motor as the 2.5 balancer is a larger unit and doesn't fit clearance wise, which, because the two engines have different harmonics, isn't optimal, the OEM balancer does the job, but as the gear driven balancer in the bottom end is removed to fit a RWD application there is slightly more vibration, the Fluidampr helps with the harmonics that the gear driven balancer once took care of,  basically makes life easier on the oil pump and bearings when thrashing it around Hopefully the weather gets better soon because I'm keen for some cruising around, and currently, with the winds and storms we are getting, the amount of detritus being blown around from trees on the road isn't something I want to be driving around in
    • Meanwhile you could come down for a coffee tomorrow. Details in the events section
    • sorry dude i forget about the forum sometimes. sent you a pm
    • Hell yeah. It's not as if the path from front to rear is particularly squirrelly or otherwise difficult.
    • Hard line it, you will be thankful later on, if you car had hicas, use that as your return.
