Hi guys, Im pretty confident my rear turbo is dead but im after some opinions. Before I completly rip them off this weekend.

HKS 2530S on GTR.

Makes first dyno run fine on low boost making around 370, then switced it onto high for the power run. Car makes no boost what so ever. You can normally hear the turbos spinning when the car is cooling down, but now one is really loud and sounds like its dragging something and makes and whinging noise when it trys to come onto boost, workshop said it was the turbo so I think it is. I limped it home with no boost and parked her up. Car drives fine, no smoke ect.

Turbos have seen around 1 bar for the last 3 years and were in good nick when last inspected.

Cheers,

Clint

If you can hear an audible change, then its pretty much highly likely.

Shouldnt have driven it home though, could have aggrovated the damage to housings and things where they might have been touch-up machineable.

Boost or no boost, turbos are still spinning (or attempting too) soon as the motor is started.

      I thought I'd heard rumor of someone that was developing a 6 speed kit to convert the 5 speed box. But maybe I was thinking of the PPG 6 speed sequential? That's about half the price of a car...

      R34 4 door side skirt identification

      By Rezz · Posted

      I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them

      There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.

      There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?
