hi. still having some issues finding a replacement turbo charger for my 1994 r33 gtst.

i have spoken to garrett direct, gcg turbos, and other people and everyone seems to be able to repair the stock turbo in about 3 days but this isnt really any good. im looking for a full replacement turbo bolt on to the standard fixings for around the 2 gran mark. does anybody know where i might be able to get anything.

otherwise if not. if i get the standard turbo with steel wheels and high flowed do you need to replace anything else on the car for it to work. eg injectors, computer.

a replacement would be better as the mate im doing with lives a fair distance from home so we are gonna do it over a saturday so if i can have a brand new one in my hands it would make life much easier.

cheers

gcg have there exchange turbo system where they strip the internals and do upgrades using the standard housing so fitment is easy, but i'm assuming its more than 2 grand since youv already spoken to them

not for $2K though....

thanks for the prompt resposes. that one from sliding performance for $890 is that a good quality product. it says garrett and something else has anyone tried them and had any problems or are they pretty sweet.

Cheers again in advance

Ring back GCG, be clear that you want thier GCG Hi-flow for the RB25DET Turbo.

It sounds like you might have not been clear with them what you were after.

Then you will have a turbo in your hands for 2k.

You send your turbo to them, they will send it back rebuilt, hi-flowed and ready to go.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
