Hey,

There is a chip in my Harmonic balancer (r32gtst), as per picture, and just wondering if this is a big problem or not.

I called up Nissan and it costs $639!!!! for a new one...

I'm guessing I will need to replace this, and wondering if anyone has bought an aftermarket one that works just as well? If you can let me know the price, and where you got it from it would be appreciated.

Andy

Yeah, I had the same thing. At worst, you'll feel a shudder in the motor as it spins faster.

Nissan wanted the same from me, but I called around.

JustJap wanted $220

Unique Auto Sports asked for $100.

I got one of UAS, and it came the next day via courier. Problem solved!

Getting the old one off is a biatch if it's been on there for a while, but if yours is like mine, it got damaged using the harmonic balancer removal tool in the first place. =-/

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
