asps91 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Hi guys, I'm upgrading the turbos on my gtr and have aquired thusfar: -700cc injectors -2860-5s (without actuators) -power FC -nismo afm's -am performance dumps -adjustable cam gears The turbo does not have any oil feed or drain flanges... Should I pull these of my stock turbos? If not can anyone link me to suitable place I could buy them. Also, what else would you say that I am missing to complete the upgrade? Gaskets ect? Appreciate the help! Thanks Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/436649-r33-gtr-turbo-upgrade/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piggaz Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Call GCG. 1300 887 267 They have the oil drains there. $65 IIRC. I'm not 100% sure if the stock ones are different to the Afternarket garret stuff, but the HKS drains need to be modified.

What about oil feed and restrictors? Is there anywhere in particular I should look for them?

XKLABA Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 What's wrong with nismo afm's? Nothing, but I went Z32s with the power FC on my 32 just cause there bigger ID Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/436649-r33-gtr-turbo-upgrade/#findComment-7151442 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ido09s Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Ditch the ECU all together, much better ECU's out there now. Link / Vipec, Haltech. There is nothing wrong with the old Power FC as such, its just that they are very old now and there are better options around. They still use AFM's which are fiddly at times and a MAP Sensor is hassle free in comparison. Power FC dont really offer much by way of upgrades / options. Link, Vipec, Haltech all have lots of options and accessories to add to them. Motorsports stuff, Flex fuel sensor capability, much better boost control options etc IIRC the drains and all coolant / oil lines should work from the standard turbo's. Just get yourself a stack of new gaskets. For gaskets try calling Powertune. They are having a moving sale at the moment and may very well have the gasket kits laying around. The kits will come with everything. Copper seals for the coolant and oil lines, new intake gaskets, new flange gaskets etc Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/436649-r33-gtr-turbo-upgrade/#findComment-7151497 Share on other sites More sharing options...
asps91 Posted December 23, 2013 Author Share Posted December 23, 2013 What about the fittings that actually screw into the turbo, will they fit? I'm aware I can use stock lines but my turbos do not have any other connections on them.

ido09s Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 All you will have is the bare turbos at the moment, you need to strip a lot of yours off and fit it to the new ones. You will spend an hour or so i reckon changing it all over.

r32-25t Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 All the fitting that go onto the turbos are just the standard ones except the oil drains due to the bolt spacing being different Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/436649-r33-gtr-turbo-upgrade/#findComment-7151673 Share on other sites More sharing options...
asps91 Posted December 23, 2013 Author Share Posted December 23, 2013 Too easy, ill order some oil drains when I order the actuators through gcg. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/436649-r33-gtr-turbo-upgrade/#findComment-7151778 Share on other sites More sharing options...
