.82 rear housing it is mate. You need to re-locate the power steer res and im pretty sure you have to get rid of the L pipe that comes out of the throttle body. You will also need to heat wrap the dump pipe.Thats all that i can think of atm.

Most of the changes required will be determined by the location of the flange on the manifold.

my 3040 is on a maifold that set further back to the firewall so i cannot run the outlet pipe where the ps resevoir would be so it had to go facing down then 90 bend to the font of the car ..

regardless the L pipe as mentioned will need to go

i just got my gt3540r internal gated turbo in the mail today, and found out that its a 1.06 rear housing.

does anyone have this turbo on their r33, plus if any more pics that yous have would be great.

I am changing my mind like i change my jocks.

I have made my decision final and i am gettin a custom high mount made, with a wide mouth dump, and intercooler pipes changed to miss the turbo.

This will all be down in the next 2 and a half weeks.

Also like to thank you guys with the pics you have showed me

lol bazr 33 thats fairly big expect some lag ! unless ur doin some engine work, i hav gt3076 internally gated turbo in the standard low mount position, and id rather it there for cop reasons when someone looks under my hood it still looks like a standard 25 which is good and bad but saves alot of hassle

so you got an Xr6 turbo's turbo ..

i ran a HKS gt3040 with 1.12 rear housing and poncam -- full boost at 5000rpm .. way to laggy for the street as to get on boost you have to be doing 30-40kms over the limit

someone has used this turbo before, have a search it'll be there somewhere

changing setup now, hahaha after all those posts

it will just be a hassle for me and too much stress on my stock engine.

if it was the .82 or smaller, i would of been sweet.

going something bit smaller,

still going high mount though, but just different turbo

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
