Just posting to see if anybody can verify that this is a TO4E turbo with internal gate.

It is meant to be the standard turbo on my gts-r but another gts-r i have seen had a different one.

Just hoping somebody can confirm what it might be, especially any other GTS-R owners.

Also, you can see that my exhaust housing is restrictive and does not allow a split dump.

I have been told that it is possible to have a different flange made up that will allow me to run a split dump.

Has anybody had a similar exhaust housing modifed to take a split dump?

Thanks in advance

dude,

u'r gonna have to take that rear flange off and have another one made up to suit with the split dump.

That's right, the flange on the back of the turbine cover bolts on. You simply remove it and have the dump made up to suite the bolt pattern on the turbine cover. If I remember rightly it is the "standard" Nissan 5 bolt pattern anyway. It would pay to check it though. I use a piece of carboard, stick it up to the bolt paterns and poke holes in it to line up with the bolt holes. Wander along to your local exhauts shop and compare the carboard with the "standard" 5 bolt flange.

Hope that helps :)

Looks to me like some sort of T3/TO4B hybrid . That exhaust housing and waste gate combination looks like std T3 stuff off an FJ20ET . The trouble is people go looking for an exhaust housing that fits their manifold , then bastardize any combination of T3/TO4B/TO4E/TO4S into it . Lot's of Garrett parts will fit together but only the right combinations work properly .

    • Is rebuilding it even a thing? Where would the shop find parts for it? I looked at some off these local online stores for my r34 and suprisingly they had brand new aftetmarket ones for $600-800 I think. I guess r32 might be a bit tougher.
    • I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
    • They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to move wrt the other.
    • I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.
    • Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.
