hi everyone

i have one hks 2530 which has a chip on the front wheel and i have another with buggered bearings.

my question is, can i take the good front wheel off and put it on the turbo with the good bearings and chipped front wheel?

obviously itll probably need to be balanced again but is it possible? worth it? or can i buy new wheels reletively cheap?

suggestions, opinions greatly appreciated

need to press the bearing sleeve out of the BB shafts without bending the shaft. Sand blast out all the carbon the turbine wheel. bath all the bits, balance the shaft with new comp wheel and shaft nut. put every thing back together the was it was and its ready to go. Not an easy job.

thanks for the help

You could try ordering a new cartridge through Garrett Japan , off the top of my head its cartridge number 446179-21 . If Garrett still make it and sell it as a spare part it should still be available .

Cheers A .

my only problem i cant find there details here. they should be open again tomorrow or tuesday but i cant find a number.

finding this stuff is so much easier for things in australia.

get a turbo shop to do it. Ive balanced turbos before (for heavy diesel machinery) and its not something you can do yourself AND will be an issue if it is out of balance

im not about to go do this by myself. i dont have the tools or know how to do it. (im sure i could pull it apart :rofl2: )

my question is if its possible or worth it..

You can pull it apart, but again there are tricks etc to doing this. The turbos i worked on where alot bigger then what you would have and where quite easy to pull apart. I think with smaller turbos there is a real chance of bending or snapping the shaft. It would honestly be best to just take them both into a turbo shop and ask if they can sacrifice parts from both and make a single working turbo out of the parts

you can try pulling it apart, you might be right but just saying probably best to just get a turbo shop to do it :)

    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
