Hello

I blew my turbo on my r32 gts-t and I am replacing it with a used stock one. I might have Nissan do it. My friends said that they would help me change it but I am wondering if I should let Nissan do this. Also what else should I check for when I change the turbo? Should I clean the turbo first, do I need to do a oil flush after this?

Help

Nissan dont know a thing in reality.

Your FAR better off talking to a workshop that specialises with imports and getting them to do the work.

If your friends are mechanically minded and know what they are doing, then its pretty straight forward and logical.

But if you arent that way minded, then i would leave it to a workshop personally.

I am in Japan. I live close to the Nissan factory. But I want to make sure to do it correctly. The Nissan people suggested that I change some of the hoses and gaskets when I install the new turbo. My friend said that when I intall the used turbo, I should do another engine oil flush. Is this the way to do it?

Help please!!!!!!!!

Your in japan?! ... bro i thought everyone in japan would specialize in this? thats where our skylines come from? lol but yeh its pretty straight forward man, make sure all the gaskets are right, and sealed in . It might be hard to take out the boltz that are connected to your turbo that screw in,they could rusted... since our skylines are 1994-1998 its bit long so yeh spray some WD40 or something and you should be fine :P

Ok cool, I have a 91 so I will use the WD40. People special in this, but there is a place where I can go that has a garage and tools and people who can help me put the turbo in myself, but I wanted to make sure that it is a job doable by non Nissan people.

Plus it will be much much cheaper than having Nissan do it.

Do I need to do another oil change when I do this?

Thanks!!!!

    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
