R33GOD

this is the 2nd hiflow turbo now

its an MTQ journal bearing hiflowed turbo

the comp cover is blown but theres no shaft play at all. got me stuffed this thing

i really dont know why it blew. dosent make sence.. maybe the k&n filters??? it was a panel filter too by the way

i think the cause of the turbo dying was too much preload off the actuator??? i never had a boost controller. had to boost the car like this. another tuner i took it to said whoever tuned your car has put too much preload on the actuator.

my r33 gtst has blown another bush bearing hiflowed turbo. only 3000k's old. never been boosted past 14 psi. the comp wheel has disentergrated but no shaft play and rear wheel in tact. still spins perfect. and nothing has gone through the turbo as the afm and panel filter are still in perfect order. the last turbo that had failed was due to apparent oil contamination but i done an engine oil flush, new filters, and braided oil lines. so i dont think there was a chance of that happening again. made damn sure of it but this new one has gone on me. so upsetting. i was told it would be perfect and up to spec and should be fine for 18psi if i wanted to boost the turbo more at a later date. i hope the 12 month warranty will cover this. as i am in the hunt for a new turbo setup,( ball bearing this time ) what would best suit me to reach a goal of 260-270 rwk on say 15 psi that is a direct bolt on application for my r33 gtst. thankyou.

timing belt has been done at 94,000k, including idler and tensioner. open to offers people

yea mate i am. and yes they will

the

im after a straight sale mate.

Make:nissan

the dyno is fine. car isnt pulling like it used to. i find out tomorow whats wrong with it anyways. i needed to know what causes this problem so i can diagnose myself if it ever happens again

im in. car or no car

ok... thought id ask, lol

come to think of it could it be a faulty o2 sensor?.. because when we installed the a/f ratio gauge we cut into the wiring

moday or tuesday?

il have to let ya know den, when i get my next weekend off. and i gotta find out if my car isnt blown up!!! lol if i get my car back 2morow. cruise!!!!

definatley drop it no matter what car. always have

im not running any boost controller. i am making boost off an ajustable hks actuator.

and the tuner will find that out when he puts the pressure gauge on it. yes i will leave it up to the tuner but id like to know also to problem solve for myself. narrow things down you know. just want to know who has seen this sort of problem before or who has had it. cheers

could it be that my standard fuel pressure regulator has failed because of the better flowing fuel pump?

the timing was fine. he advanced the timing abit more to see if that was the problem but it just pinged

the manifold gasket is basically brand new. turbo was installed bout 2 months ago

i dont think that is the problem as it comes on boost very strong. could it be an injector problem like ash said. because they arent a name brand. their hiflowed stockies..

i am running no cat at the moment. i have a hiflow cat sitting at home waiting to be put in
