Maybe a VG30 ET not DET?

[Cubes]

Mine has 7153.

I popped down to a jap importers today and all the vg30 turbo's have different numbers cast in to them?!?!

All exactly the same turbo.

[Bass Junky]

Ah shit.

Oh well, I will most likely get them turbo from zoom, as GCG has confirmed it's the right one.

Then it seems that there is NO difference in casting marks or identification between the turbos.

Shite

HERE is the stock r33 highflwed vs hybrid r33 and vg30 rear.

[Angry]

I've just had a quick look at my rb20t turbo.

The vg30 turbine I have is definitely bigger.

Noticably its width.

[Bass Junky]

Yep, I got a lot of pics a couple of minutes ago.

You can see it in pictures in the distance between the snail and the inside of the manifold flange.

[Angry]

pic attached

just took it now ..

[Bass Junky]

OKay, first impression.

It's Ball Bearing (the 10mm bolt in the bearing pack

NOT VG30DET exhaust housing. Too much distance between the snail and the inside of the flange

[Angry]

i was told it was a ball bearing vg30 ... comparing it to the pics zoom provided its very much similar ... in my opinion.

[Bass Junky]

Check these two pics together

[Angry]

i see what u mean by the exhaust inlet side ..distance.... but can i safely say that its not a RB20 turbo?

Matt

[Bass Junky]

You can see the width of the gap is slighly bigger than the width of the flange.

On the VG30, it is definently smaller than the width of the flange.

So reasonably comparable for new, and a bit more than used. Sounds good, comes with warranty so a decent option for those interested.

Ian, I think you are right, but find 220rwkw was too much on stockish suspension so the lod R33 needs plenty to tie the thing down. 280 would be tyre murder

Hi Geoff, I've spent more money on suspension than the engine...LOL...Whiteline everything they make for R33 and Bilstein, Strut Braces Front and Rear, Adjustable Caster Rods, Adjustable Upper Rear Camber Rods. And Brakes have been hugely upgraded....Ohh and one of your magnificent Hicas Lock Bars.

Just to throw another spaniard in the works , there is another exhaust housing by Garrett thats 1.06AAR and twin entry T3 flanged for the TA34 turbos that could work . It has no waste gate so not a straight fit but may work for some .

Cheers A .

[Bass Junky]

So here's what I can figure out.

Stay with me.

RB25DET turbo

OP6 on exh housing

45V3 or 45V1 (series 1 and series 2 or R34 GTT turbos)

RB20DET turbo

OP6 on exh housing

16V on comp cover

VG30DET turbo

OP6 OR V45 on exh housing

16V on com cover.

So, there ya go.

It looks like a rb25 compressor and cover with a VG20 exhaust wheel and exhaust housing.

it is BB. you have an unusual turbo there:)

If its a RB25/VG20 combo it will put out about 215rwkw on an rb20. its exactly what i had on my rb20.

hope that helps.

[Bass Junky]

Can anybody else NOT see any pictures?
