MTQ Engine systems are the largest GT dealer in the country. Try them also

As for your problem, I would say very characteristic of valve stem seals in the cylinder head.

that was my mechanics first thought a few months bak, and since then i have completely rebuily the head - new valves,guides,stem seals everything :yes: so now it just leaves the turbo, unless theres ne other issues that we may be looking over?

Pull it out, strip its housings and check the conditions of its wheels. Turbo is suitable for rebuild only if your wheels are in ok condition with out too much of shaft play. Unfortunately most BB turbos would require a new CHRA for overhaul.

Yes the HKS GT3037 Pro S turbos use the same cartridge as Garretts GT3076R turbo .

The cartridge number is 700177-5007 so you can shop around for the best price on one of them .

Anyone who can remove the compressor jamb nut and the oil inlet ferrule (without bending anything) should be able to strip the cartridge and assess it for you . The advantage of a ball bearing center section is that aside from the turbine end piston ring type exhaust gas seal nothing actually rubs against the bearing housing so unless its had some mechanical failing or the wheels are damaged it may be reusable . It really depends on what the turbo shop has in the way of spare parts .

Like the guys said, depends where you take it. Since i live in Perth i got Grant from http://www.per4manz.com/ to rebuild my HKS GT2835 PRO S.

The rear bearing race had collapsed resulting in the wheels JUST touching the comp housing. He repacked the cartridge/ balanced at a fraction the cost of a new core. Still going strong.

    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
    • As per title.. has anyone used so far? Keen to hear results, comparisons. In the market for a new mani for my new turbo. Any issues cracking?
    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
