Hi considering selling my hiflow turbo

i have since had it rebalanced and cleaned by turbo australia

recorded a 320rwhp on dyno

very minimal shaft play, but as i have been told plain bearing turbos require a ver minor of play for the oil to lubricate the wheels.

the play is still the same as it was from when it came back from turbo australia.

Very good condition turbo, no noises, no leaks, nothing wrong with it.

only reason for selling is saving up for a gt30r turbo.

any offers above $700

im actually going to put the turbo on ebay, so it will be up in a couple of days

its only done about 3000kms

turbo australia had done the hiflow orginially, and i had it also cleaned rebalanced, changed bushes and 270 thrust bearing put in.

hmmm arent the turbos off skylines like no good after 14 psi ? or is it a myth ? id still be interested though id have to make a custom manifold to fit onto my SR. hmmm ill get back to u .,

yeah stock turbos with the ceramic compressor wheels arent much good after 14psi.

but this one has been hiflowed and has steel wheels, so it can handle more boost, max is about 18psi.

Also the wheels in this hiflow are bigger then a stock turbo.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
