L20et Turbo Died

[gazza750]

anyone know direct replacement for it ??

Why would you want to?

[Ghostrider]

Sorry! But it's the tiniest turbo in the T3 configuration. FJ20ET & DET are identical but could be as much as double the output.

Cheers, D

RB20DET (and presumably RB25DET) turbo is a direct bolt-on, although you will need to adapt the compressor outlet and exhaust dump.

Why would you want to?

because i am attempting to keep it original and it has to go over the pits to get registered

(this is the 30 dodgsun was sold )

If your trying to stay original, the only identical replacement is another L20ET item, but as I said, it's the tiniest of rear housings. The FJ20's went up as far as 0.63 I think, which is about double the output of the original, but it is to the naked eye, ORIGINAL!

you killed the the turbo????? how???...damn!!

280ZX turbo T03 is same as FJ20 turbine. Lot's sell on eBay USA for fairly good dollars & I can recommend blax240 as a US seller. Only problem is the freight, but try some of the parts importers, they might have an FJ20 or on the FJ20 forum, somebody might be able to help you.
