I have been searching for turbo's for my R32 gtr without luck. The GT2860r are sold out. Can I use the Garrett 2560r turbo? will this be a direct bolt on?

Here are the specs

Turbo CHRA

466541-1 446179-12

Wh Dia Trim A/R

Ind Exd

46.5mm 60.0mm 60 0.60

Wh Dia Trim A/R Type

53.0mm 62 0.64 Wastegated

I have searched but there is no conclusive aswer as to whether these will fit.

Thanks man but none of the above links tells me whether they will fit the stock config.

According to the turbobygarrett site the GT2560R's are SR20 packaged turbos meaning the turbine and compressor covers won't suit an RB26 . Specifically the exhaust inlet at the turbo is wider and the dump pipe flange pattern is different ie SR20 type rather than RB26 . The compressor covers are 3 bolt outlet instead of 2 and the inlet suits SR rather than RB26 as well . Its doubtful SR20 type turbos would have the mounting eyes on the bottom of the comp covers for the water/oil plumbing gadgets .

I would not attempt to use non specific low mount turbos on an RB26 because all the fiddly bits blow the costs out . Space really is a premium on that side of a GTR head and even Nissan had to make compromises to get it all in .

Are you sure you have searched every avenue to find bolt on Garrett GT BB's ?

Cheers A .

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
