What year is the 180?

T28 is the go. Even if it doesnt fit straight on, they're awsome on SRs.

I think its 1994 quite a nice car hes only had it for a week and theres oil coming out of the turbo pipe into the cooler etc and his coolant is a little milky green so ? its not looking that good

T28 is pretty generic, slike saying you want some size 11 sneakers.

Trust T517 10cm pretty special, Apexi RX6 is hot too i hear

If you persist looking on SAU for NS.com info, at least try and borrow the ear of users STR8E180 and URAS on the topic.

as for the 180.

what is the goal.

if he wants the same response he has now with the ability to make about 200rwkw, get a turbo off an S15.

yes it's a T28.

it bolts straight on.

while you're at it, get the injectors from the S15 too.

once he has more cash, he is a fuel pump, PFC, EBC, Z32 AFM and tune away from 200rwkw

in a 1200kg body should be fun with no extra lag compared to stock.

those turbo's can be had for about $400

there are 2 types. ball bearing and non ball bearing.

and both come on aus and jap spec S15's

it's all very random.

the only way to tell without pulling it apart is from the part number stamped on the body of the turbo.

both can get to 200kw region.

ball bearing would be better obviously but apart from a little more response, you won't be missing out on much.

more power after that is much more dinero

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
