Vg30 Turbo Chra Parts Interchangable

[#skyginer]

Hey everyone

I installed a vg30 ball bearing turbo onto and rb20 only to find it smokes badly, i removed it and proceeded to pull it apart for a DIY rebuild.

When i pulled it apart i managed to break the plate behind the comp wheel.

Are parts in the nissan turbo cores interchangable?

How do you remove the front metal seal. when i pryed the inner lip it became loose but never came out and chipped the edges

Has anyone used a kando turbo rebuild kit?

Or the kando t4 comp wheel, cover and backing plate upgrade?

Ball bearing centre section is not really rebuildable. You can't just take it apart you know. (You can in fact take it apart, but there's no good reason to.)

ball bearing turbo? you may have been feeding it too much oil as bb turbos dont need as much oil as bush bearing turbos, hence the excessive smoke , you MAY have pulled it apart for no reason

Easiest way is to find and an RB25 Hitachis cartridge and use that because the ceramic turbine I believe is the same . Its compressor wheel is slightly larger so use the RB25 ones compressor housing too . I think people often just used to use the RB25s turbo complete on RB20s . but if you need the VG30 B turbos larger OP6 turbine housing it should fit the complete 25 turbo .

Just buy another (pair) of vg turbos. Heaps going around as upgrades are far more common now than say 5 years ago.

He's not talking about twin turbos. He's talking about the T25/T3 sized Hitachi thing from VG30DET that is almost the same turbo as the Skyline units.
