I bought my first turbocharged car about a month ago. Its all going good so far, and im loving it. Although its all bells and whistles, im having troubling understanding whats what because of the massive difference between turbocharged and N/A engines. So here are a few pictures of my r32 gts-t's engine bay. I need to know what is what. So, can someone save these pictures and label them for me. Ill label what i think is what. Here is the link to the album.

Blow off Valve (Plumbed Back)

Image Two:

Waste Gate ACTUATOR (opens the waste gate when the desired level of pressure (boost) is reached.

Image Three:

You point to the centre of the turbo?? that bolt ontop is one of the oil lines going in..... Shaft of the turbo runs though it from the compressor side to the exhaust side...

Turbo :) correct

Then you have your dump (front pipe is the next section depending on if u have an aftermatket combined dump / front pipe.

Where you say pipe it looks like u r pointing to the exhaust maifold... if not that line below you can see is a water line to the turbo.

Fuel Filter

Hope this helps mate, but as the others said track down an engine manual for the 33 it will show you everything.

    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much

    • 😜 hopefully we get this instead of a new R36 GTR due to recent financial problems at Nissan. Nismo to sell a complete kit with RB26 and driveline. All starts making sense (ok maybe not) once the Nissan Leaf's (Leaves?) with stuffed EV motors/batteries hit the market cheap
