I took the heat shield off to get the photo. I would just like to know for sure what it is. Even if i know whether it's stock or whether it's not is good enough for me. Nick from APC said it was aftermarket but didn't know what it was...but he was looking with the heat shield on. So who knows...

Hi MM2, the high flowed R33 RB25DET turbo on our R32 GTST RB20DET says "16V 5 Nissan Motor" on the compressor cover.

I have seen a number of R32 GTST's with R33 GTST turbos fitted, so this may help if yours is another one.

OK, i managed to read what i think it says on the compressor cover with one of those little mirrors on a rod (don't know the name of it). Reading clockwise around the cover it says:

M27 (with a circle around it) 2 1-1 A/R 80 (i think) GARRET.

Any ideas what turbo it could be?

Regards,

Scott

My 2510 has M27 and .60 cast onm the front, it also has a machined front with 4 allen key nuts on the front. I don't think yours is stock, as it doesn't have the factory 90 cast section from the compressor cover on it.

More pics would help

only akin 150rwkw it aint gunah be anything huge

firstly put on a heat shield though, thats gunah be boiling the engine bay as it is

the actuator is in the std position

i have a 0.60 comp housing and it rubs against the chassis rails so judging by that pic it aint that big...

id dare say from size and power output its either a small GT series turbo or a high-flow.

easiest way to find out is pull the intercooler piping off and take some better pics for us

also if the car hasnt got a front mount (or theres no evidence of it ever having one ie cut up front supports or front bar) then i doubt its anything huge

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
