Searched and found nothing.

What turbo does a R33 GTST run stock?

Wanting to know as a m8 is lookin to buy same/better turbo as his has shit itself.

I thought they ran a version of the Garret T28 ... possibly... If I am wrong hopefully it will outrage an R33 owner sufficiently to post the correct answer to your question.

no R33 owner outrage here, but an R32 owner :O

its really hard to say what its 'the same as', due to the fact that i believe the turbo was specced especially for the RB25...

hopefully some of the more knowledgeable members find this thread and share their wisdom!

i thought that was the s15s?

r33 turbo is the same size whether its series 1 or 2. the series 2 just has a nylon compressor wheel.

or are you reffering to the series 2 being the r34 motor? which does have a slightly bigger turbo than a r33.

Yeah, I have been trying to find out for defeinite what turbo my S2 '25T has in it. I have heard people say that they have the nylon compressor wheel etc.. Is this true for sure? If so is this a bad thing, and should I be careful running more boost through it... that 2530 is beginning to look very nice ;-)

Cool, thanks for that mate - I reckon ill do supporting mods before I start trying to blow my turbo anyways...

Does anyone know what brand/type the stock turbo in an S2 R33 gtst or is it just generic nissan>?

Sorry about all the noob questions, but I am trying to build the rig into a very fast reliable touring car as opposed to making it a 10 second bullet.

Cheers,

Chris

So I guess id be correct in saying it will maek a really good sinker for fishing... What do ya reckon about 2530 or 2540 HKS turbos? From what I hear ppl r having good performance while still maintaining economy with these units.

I can see this becomming quite expensive~!

Its some mongrel nissan/hitachi/garrett T3 flanged thing.

But definately not

Definately is. pulled the turbo off of a wrecked 2000 S15 Silvia 5 weeks ago and its IDENTICAL to the turbo on my Series 2 R33 RB25DET. not tryin to start shit just throwin in my 2 cents.

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
