32 Actuator Problem

[R31 POWER]

Put a pic up of it. Sounds like a early (redtop) one or R33.

The S15 supposedly has a boost restrictor in one of the hoses (similar to GTR) and when removed + adjustable HKS wastegate, I think 14.7psi is possible.

R34 GTT might have a boost restrictor in one of the hoses.

here are the pics

the one with the nipple in the middle of the actuator is from my car (r34) the other actuator which as the nipple on the side from the actuator is the one that i brought(r32)

[R31 POWER]

Yeah R32 RB20det actuators have a straight nipple. Id say you have a R33 actuator

[fishy]

anyone else conclude this. i want to be extra sure

[sonoramicommando]

both my r32 & r33 actuators have nipples coming out straight from the side.

not sure if S1 & S2 R33 turbo came with different actuators but what you have doesn't look like R32 one.

R32 turbo has 16V5 on the housing and R33 one has 45V3, not sure if you can determine which series turbo from that.

well maybe that the reason why i don't see 10 psi. because it not a 32 actuator

31 power, is that a picture of a 32 actuator? cause if it is it doesn't look like the one i got

[R31 POWER]

The pic i posted is of a R32 RB20det one.

My friend also has this prob when he installed his 33 turbo on his RB20 using the 32 actuator he only see's 7 PSI now he uses a turbotech boost controller and gets 10. But he still could not figure out why he only got 7 PSI, he did have a front mount if that makes any difference?

[sonoramicommando]

you need to measure the pressure where it opens up to really know whats going on, be it R32, R33 or R34 actuator.

im using r32 actuator (measured to open up at 10psi) on r33 turbo and i see 8-9 psi at plenum with stock cooler. the actuator is hooked up to turbo compressor housing.

Hey i just picked up my r32 wastegate actuator about 30 mins ago and i know for a fact that its an r32 wastegate actuator because its out of my mates r32 cause hes doin a rebuild.

Im sorry to tell you fishy but mine doesnt look like yours and i cant tell you what skyline yours is out of.

To best describe mine take a look at your third picture. Mine has the nipple on the opposite end as to the one in that pic and my nipple is straight. The numbers on the actuator read: (ASN79-) which is engraved into the actuator.

It also has stamped to it (241321) and AS VALVE. Hope that helps. ill be installing mine tomorrow morning.
