This arvo I snapped the shaft in my turbs i think..... Im in the process now of pulling it apart and searching for a new turbs. In a perfect world ill buy a new turbs ie gt35rs, comp, inject etc etc but the money factor is a massive part.

Am I better to purchase another standard er34det turbo. ps what are they?? I've also heard that they are crap and im starting to believe this as i have a car with 76k on the clock and a snapped turbo shaft.....(10psi)max boost ever.

Or get a vg30det turbo apparently BB and bigger so perhaps a cheaper mod ill admit not a huge performance mod but maybe something a lil different.

please post or pm me what you think i need to make a decision rather soon cheers......

imo after having to swap to a vg30 for the same reason

although on a 33 S1 25 there alittle laggier and mine pulled better in the topend

however I put this down to the slightly bigger rear housing op6 on the vg30 I used

since you already had the bigger rear housing I think you'll see alittle more lag (200-300rpm) and no top end gain

What sort of power are you looking for mate? If you are happy with 200-215rwkw then just bolt on another stockie (make sure it has OP6 stamped on the ex housing, these are the VG30/R34 GTT turbos), if you want anything up to 250rwkw get you current one hiflowed so its bolts straight back in, looks stock and will make nice responsive power.

If you want anymore power then check out the RB25 power reults thread (stuck up the top of forced induction), this will give you an idea of what turbo (and other mods) you need to make the numbers.

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
