Hi,

I'm pretty sure that the turbo on my r33gtst s2 has just let go.

Waiting to confirm with the shop but no boost and lots of noise from turbo. Doesnt look good :-(

Anyone have anything local for sale?

Anyone know a local place to get the turbo Hi flowed? I asked one mob and they said it cant be done as it has ceramic (I thought the whole point was to replace with steel!!)/

Lastly, If I do go a larger turbo any thoughts on setup? I been reading a bit on the forced induction forums but too many options for me.

My car is relatively stock with Dump pipe,Turbo back exhaust, etc. Has recently had a h/duty nismo clutch put in it.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Jump on the hyper gear website and have a look at their direct bolt ons

Also if yours isn't cracked you can send yours off to them and for around $900 they will repair and highflow it

Probably the best option for a stock setup unless your aiming for higher numbers then you have to start looking at other things

Around 190-210 maybe but you would need a tune so if your going cheap then maybe looking into an apexi safc

That will allow you to lean out the top end making better power. Right now with that setup will make te standard computer run pretty rich because it will trip put with all the air running in and just rich it up to be safe

What goal are you aiming for and we can tell you what Oi would need.

:ph34r: Dont take your car to the mob who said ya cant because the wheel is ceramic lol

GCG turbo's can high flow it, no idea of price though but they have a very good reputation.

Might be worth having a read of this thread, http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/55845-rb25-turbo-upgrade-all-dyno-results/ check for other people running a similar setup to you and see what their results are like. Might give you some idea of which way you want to go.

    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.
    • Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.
    • Ok so no 4cyl clutch... Yeah it is a factory manual. So if iam correct i need clutch and flywheel too? I can use something that suits something like R32 GTST?   EDIT: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224291042776 Is this ok?   EDIT2: i maybe forget to mention this(dk how important it is) but the trans will be behind RB25DET NEO(iam doing swap) It will be there for a little while. Iam planing to do bigbox or BMW tranny..
    • You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.
    • Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".
