ok ive upgraded my turbos, and now have my old ones in the store room.. i found that they both have a letter 'S' hand written on them..

when i bought my car, it seemed completely standard, and to write on the turbos, the turbos would have have to be taken out sometime.. so now im thinking whether i have standard turbos or not.. how do i identify what turbos i have? i know they are Garrett..

markings on it say - "GARRETT A/R42 M24 1-2" and .42 on one of the tubes and 4685 on the side and

"GARRETT 485" .48 on the other (darker one) i hope u get what im saying here =/

a plate on it says

"UD 1429J

14411-05U20

466071-2"

can anyone let me know what turbos i have? and how would i know if they are 'steel wheeled' turbos? thanks in advance

They are standard size housings, I can tell you that much. the 42 or .42 is the A/R of the front housing and the 0.48 is the rear. the "14411-05U20" is a nissan part number, so they are a nissan turbo, and given the housings sizes are standard I would say they are stock. It's possible they have been rebuilt, and perhaps given steel wheels, but also possible they were just removed for some other reason and re-fitted at some point.

cool, thanks for the info, but is there some way to tell if they are steel wheeled? i cant think of a reason why they would take it off (unless they blew) and write an 'S' on both turbos.. unless its steel wheeled, maybe its just wishful thinking, but is there a way to be sure?? thanks

Take a photo looking in at the front and rear of the turbo, close enough to see easily the shaft at each end clearly. post it up here and it won't take much.

i can get the front shaft but the back has the dumps attatched at they are really tightly bolted on, ill get u the front shaft pics for now, back in 5~

if theres one thing ive learnt with imports is

dont trust the work unless u do it urself..

my car was suppose to be stock when i bought it.. made 296awkw... i thought instantly.. cant be stock turbos

and sure enough they werent stock.. they had a fairly large compwheel..

but ceramic exhaust wheel... so @ 18psi 1 snapped off and destroyed the motor

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
