Here is the answer from GCG (for my RB25DET - may be different for M35):

1) We use the factory bearing housing and modify it, we do not use a Garrett "cartridge" as such to replace the internals.

2) Exhaust wheel = Stage 3 T3

3) Compressor wheel = T04E

4) A/R is same as the factory housings that come on the vehicle from Nissan, we do not modify, or touch any of the external housings on this unit.

As we are the only people who can build these units in ball bearing, we don't like to give away too much detail, i'm sure you can understand.

Cool, thanks for that Kiwi :P

Out of interest what model of Garrett (?) turbo is fitted to your RB25DET?

I was wondering if they were the same model that the M35 adopted.

I'm getting a bit excited in anticipation of my GCG High-flow :P

No the S1 Stagea turbo has a T3 flange but that may be the only thing in common. It doesn't seem to have a Garrett code on it, from memory it just says "Nissan" but its .40 A/R . The S2 had the neo engine with the GTT turbo with a bigger exhaust housing and the M35 as pictured earlier has M24N stamped on it as well as .60 A/R

Jetwreck has given me a rundown on what hassles I need to go through to remove the turbo and I'm not so sure I want to do it myself lol too much that can potentially go wrong and many things I can potentially break ;)

I think I might use a reputable workshop to do the dirty work, anyone got any suggestions of a workshop to approach for a estimate on doing it.

The turbo will probably be a week to two to get turned around, hopefully a workshop that can safely push the stagea to the side out of the way until the new turbo is ready to go back in would be ideal. I don't want to be getting the poor girl tray trucked all around the joint.

I get my spare turbo tomorrow. Yah. :)

let the learning begin.

Woo hoo! Sounds good.

If you havn't done anything with it by the time I ready for high-flow I may be calling on you :P

I was thinking about what you said and I'm leaning towards the turbo out & in in one day, especially if I can line the exhaust up at the same time. Would be the easiest way, then it's off to SAS for a tune.

I may have secured an ECU, just waiting to confirm they have a VQ25DET not a VQ25DE, considering it's an Australian wreckers I highly doubt they have a VQ25DE Stagea Half-Cut so it should be right.

Does anybody on here have a turbo charger for sale for VQ25DET  Garrett M24N  mines stuffed and has a cracked exhaust casing.  Was about to get it rebuilt but they discovered this. 

Thanks!

Have you tried Joe Kyle? Or the four or five Nissan wreckers in Auckland?

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
