Reverting To Stock Help! Gts R33

[GTSBoy]

I would walk into an exhaust shop or performance workshop carrying that turbo and exhaust kit and ask to buy sufficient suitable fasteners to hold it all together. The dump is usually held on to the turbo outlet with a mixture of bolts and a couple of studs (due to lack of access to get bolts through). The dump onto the down/front pipe will want decent fasteners that can take the heat. (Same with the turbo-dump fasteners for that matter, plus you want to have decent dome washers or locking fasteners or lock tabs or something to stop them coming loose and falling off).

That "blow off valve" is not a BOV, it is a wastegate, which you won't need if you swap back to standard turbo.

Your question marked blue hose elbow needs to be replaced with the original cast alloy crossover pipe, if that is what your new cooler piping kit is intended to hook up with. The cross over pipe also has the point where you put the BOV, plus it has some tapping points used for connecting parts of the emissions gear. If you put a factory BOV onto the factory cross over, you'll also need to put in the pipework to take the BOV outlet back to the turbo inlet.

I tend to agree with the other guys here. You would be better off getting the stuff you have on the car working than trying to go back to stock. Too many niggly things you need to do it right.

The wheels issue is best solved by pissing them off and fitting either stockies or aftermarket ones that actually fit. There is very little reason to use spacers to make the wrong wheels fit beyond appearance/fashion, and cars should not be made to look in a particular way at the expense of functionality. To do so is to not masculine.

Also keep in mind that spacers for your wheels are illegal and defectable

Not sure why others on here are even suggesting you use them when other options are out there

edit. point has been made and discussed.

You really don't listen to anything I have tried to tell you do you...GL with it champ....you'll need it

[Plattsy]

this thread delivers.

you need some one to come look at this car.

[StevenCJR31]

^^ this! get someone (any furkn one!) who can sort this for you

You are trying to use a combo of stock and aftermarket parts(some good and some not) and trying to make it work for you

The way you are approaching this is going to end in tears and an empty wallet

[ARTZ]

I'm not sure it can end any worse than it has started

Sorry, couldn't get a good look at the object as it was under my manifolds and i'm new to turbos/ wastegates, it looked totally different to the stock one.

i've had 2 people from jap car clubs to come have a look at it, and i've taken it to various performance shops recommended by others.

what you need is some under bonnet pics of a stock standard engine bay then go search for the parts, quite simple really

im returning mine to stock and will take some pics for you..

some more pieces to your puzzle

UPDATE: just blew the old turbo, defiantly rejoicing over my decision to buy stock turbo. Glad i didn't throw on fuel rails and try to tune that setup, like some suggested haha.

Question: can i limp a blown turbo around if i stay off boost for a week?(no smoke yet)
