housing. 79 trim 53.8mm Inco T-250 turbine wheel .86

A/R turbine housing

I'll give you what I know.

The R33 (and R32 for that matter) has a turbo which has a bolt pattern of a T3.

So it will NOT bolt on to a car that had a T28.

The internals are of a similar size to a T28 though.

All I know about the sizes is that the exhaust wheel is 48mm for the R33 and 42mm for the R32.

But ALL skylines GTST from R32 onwards, have a T3 bolt pattern.

Not sure about the R31's and earlier..

The GTR's have twin T28 turbos. the bolt patter is a T28.

However, they are only good for twin turbo set ups.

The T28's on the GTR's do not work that good in a single turbo application.

WRXKILLA...

Just incase you didn't know.. the skyline turbos have ceramic exhaust wheels.. so I doubt that they would be an upgrade for your GTiR even if it did fit.

Nope,

The GTiR turbo will take excess boost pressures.

I know many GTiR owners that have run 18psi and even 20psi on the stock turbo for long long periods of time as daily drivers and never had a problem.

Of course it isnt exactly efficient at those pressures. But hey.

My Mate Ivan ran a 12.3 with stock turbo stock pretty much everything. 20psi.

My car came back from a Particular workshop withthe turbo buggered. Bit suspicious. Considering I had a lot of other things done wrong too.

But I was running 14psi.

nice...

did you go back to the workshop to complain or anything.

yeh the Gtir turbo's don't have ceramic exhaust wheels so no problem with running over 14psi.. but like you said, above that and it starts to get out of it's efficiency range... especially with the top mount interheater that they have.

he he he, yep, gotta love the Interwarmer, I cooked Bacon & Eggs on it once! :D

Yeah, Umongst other things, They Cross Threaded an Intercooler bolt and ross threaded the thread inside the plenum, (where it bolts in), left a gearbox bolt out!, replaced my Nissan Oil Filter will a Coopers!, I now get some clunking noises from drivetrain since the day it came out, and of course my turbo is a littel buggered since it came out.

I think I mentioned in another thread somewhre which garage this was.

In Sydney's East.

      We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
