GTiR T28 turbo.

T-28, 60 trim 60 mm BCI-1 compressor in standard T-3

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.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
