Factory R34 RB25DET Neo Turbo with metal compressor wheel!

The turbo is from a later model GTT (early ones have plastic compressor wheels) which was swapped onto my car (98 GTT) by its Japanese owner before sent off to Australia.

Perfect condition as you can see from the pictures.

An excellent upgrade for R32 GTST. Will make 200rwkw reliably.

Asking $500 SOLD

Isn't the metal wheel slower at spooling?

i dont think you can feel much difference in power delivery(still same housing) while the advantage being stronger and more reliable.

is the front pipe ganador or JIC? Sorry for the noob question but does one end bolt on to the turbo housing and the other end to the cat?

You are right it is JIC! I've mistaken it with my Ganador catback system, thought they were the same :)

Anyways, yes its a direct replacement for your factory front pipe, one end bolt on to the dump pipe(which is shown in one fo the pictures), other end bolt on to your existing cat.

cheers

How negotiable are you on the prices?

And, is the dump pipe included or is it just the front pipe?

You can give me an offer on price. yes dump pipe included if you want it.

cheers

how many km's has the turbo done? How confident are you that it is actually the steel wheel version?

well, its not the steel wheel version. from what i can gather, its a series 2 gtt turbo with aluminium compressor and ceramic turbine wheel.

it could be highflowed but im not sure(im not a turbo expert) maybe you can tell from the pictures. if its indeed highflowed then you are getting a bargain. but either way im sure its has a metal compressor wheel not plastic.

It is not a highflow. Definitely not. The compressor housing still has the groove in it. At the end of the day, metal or bakelite, it's the same thing. the comressor wheel never goes. It's always the exhaust wheel that dies.

The bakelite ocmpressor wheel is actually better. It has faster spool.

Well, each have they own advantages. I dont think you could feel the relative difference in "spool" time. Nissan quoted both cars with 280ps and their peak power/torque rpms are very similar if not exactly same, from what I can remember.

There are reasons that Nissan decided to upgrade series 2 GTTs with metal compressor wheels, maybe there have been reliability issues with series one turbos, I dont know for certain, maybe there were other faults. But anyone would trust Nissan's decision to upgrade were for the better, I dont think Nissan would go backwards by offering a worse turbo than the previous generation.

Thats why, the series 2 turbo that I'm selling is better than the plastic wheeled series 1 version. Also, being a newer turbo it is more reliable in the long run too.

I'm not asking double the price over a series 1 and I'm always open to reasonable offers. However, I will not sell it to you for $350 just because you are an uni student and you saw a series 1 sold for that much. If you like bakelite compressors better then I'm sure you could find one elsewhere and buy it, why even pay $350 for a "lesser" turbo?

    • When's the rear mounted turbo kit coming? Needs dose and V8 chop idle lol.
    • I was very unimpressed with how the car came up from the A pillar forward, before I hit things (twice). It all has to go. It had to go, but now it has to go... more. So we finally found the very first Shennanigans with the entirely perfectly setup engine that had no problems being pulled apart to improve on 'was perfectly fine'. Cam bearings looked a bit... stock. Which isn't entirely bad given they were stock and this is a ~20 year old engine. So new cam bearings are on the way because it's somewhat difficult to get to this stage to do it later, and it will trash the block. It was quite unusual that it wasn't done when the perfectly new-looking VCM cam was originally installed by [unknown] What IS unusual is the cam that was installed there was advanced SIX degrees. As to why there is no way to know.. however it could have been @Dose Pipe Sutututu's mate who wanted a larger cam sound but also wanted it to come on earlier to be more usable. This is my dyno sheet with the previous setup - This cam is not supposed to peak until 7000+ RPM, according to VCM. This is what lead me down the whole 'my heads/intake setup is running out of puff and can't support the cam' line of thinking to begin with. Anyway too late now - New cam is in! It could be rather funny if this smaller cam acts like a larger cam because it isn't advanced six degrees. In the spirit of everything is working amazingly - the COMP cam required no dialling in whatsoever. It was about 0.5 degrees advanced, which seems pretty bang on. Any adjustment either way would be further out. I'm told as a chain breaks in it ends up regarding back about 0.5 a degree as the chain breaks in, making it bang on. In the spirit of everything was previously working amazingly - The timing gear that was taken out turned out to be was an N-Motion double timing chain kit, with adjustable cam gear (which is how it was 6 degrees advanced) and all looks entirely perfectly new. It also had a Torrington bearing, which was one of the reasons I ended up getting the Cloyes kit which they used in the C5R 24 hour racecar - Because I couldn't confirm what was in the engine when talking to Tony Mamo. I did believe however it was a Double chain kit of some kind... but found no supporting documentation or evidence for it.
    • I recently did this to my R33 with the full set from Car Mats Direct, they can't do the vinyl anymore that's advertised on the website due to a supplier issue so I ended up with the Black Loop Pile which looks great. I went all out with rubber sound deadening sheets from Repco and also added the sound deadening foam layer option with the carpet. Makes a world of difference and got rid of all the weird smells in the 29 year old interior. It was a bit of work but I'd 100% recommend it, Car Mats Direct had awesome customer service and quick postage. Replaced my seats with some sporty ones from Autotechnia while I was at it, feels like a new car.
    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way.
