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.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
