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!!!!

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure

      Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By oHBoy. · Posted

      Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
