Hi Guys,

I've got the oppurtunity of purchasing a GTRS turbine housing (.64)

I want to know if it would bolt up to the standard r33 / r34 turbo core

this is to save me looking for an r34 OP6 .63 turbo and rear housing.

reason for doing this is i'm wanting to high flow an r34 turbo for my r33.

so i want a hybrid turbo using a HKS GTRS .64 turbine housing, r33 core and compressor housing high flowed.

CAN IT BE DONE??

thanks guys

You will need to make sure the GTRS housing is going to suit the wheel size you will be using in the highflow. If not, then it could foul or have too much clearance. If you are going to highflow the turbo anyway, there is no point getting a different housing. The one on there is going to flow the same as a GTRS anyway, possibly more.

And is it a GTRS T25 flange or T3 flange?

Not sure? is there any way to visually tell?

its got a 4 bolt pattern with rectangle opening.

T3 is 4 bolts, rectangle opening?, t25 is 3 bolts, circular opening?

I'll have a R34 OP6 0.63 turbo up for sale probably next week if you can wait.

Im in Auckland, NZ :)

No, T3 and T25 are both 4 bolts, rectangular. T25 is smaller. The turbo on your R33 and R34 are both T3 flange. A GT-RS is usually T25 but you can opt for a T3 flange from HKS when buying them.

If you are buying it second hand, then measure the centre-of-hole to centre-of-hole dimensions and I can tell you which one it is

The turbines are a different profile in Hitachi (R34GTt) and Garrett GT28 NS111 (GTRS) .

The Hitachi cartridge is bulkier than the Garrett one so I'm not sure if the Hitachi one could be made to fit a Garrett housing .

Just for the record 0.64 A/R is the smaller of two housing sizes Garrett make for that GT28 turbine , the larger one is 0.86 A/R .

HKS had their own turbine housings made but only in the 0.64 A/R size , Garrett don't do either in "T3" flange size .

If anyone wants to sell one for sane money I'm looking for an OP6 Hitachi turbine housing/R34 turbo in good condition .

BTW to make a Skyline spec GTRS turbo aside from the HKS turbine housing all you need is a Garrett GT2871R 52T cartridge and some machining mods to a T04B comp housing . Get a big snout one and convert it to a ported shroud inlet and thats about it .

I have uses for the T3 flanged HKS turbine housing and a Hitachi OP6 one ATM .

Trying not to be greedy , cheers A .

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
