hi guys, i blew my turbo last night, and was looking at buying a replacement, roughly same size hopefully in a Ball Bearing setup.

My questions are as follows,

what is my flange type ?

what is my turbo housing dimentions ?

what is my compressor housing dimentions ?

( p.s - i was running a stock r33 s2 turbo no mods)

if someone can give me these details it would be greatly appreciated so i know what to look for when buying another.

S.

T3 flange, not sure what the exact specs are exhaust housing and compressor housing wise on the stock turbo.

Same size wise there isnt too much available, but then again if you are spending the money wouldn't you rather get something a decent size bigger? Your call.

Closest thing a little bit bigger is something like a 2530 or similar, just go something in a T28 series range if you want the same response as the stock turbo but atleast you'll have a bit more head room.

and the hard part is i dont want it to cost me an arm and a leg :S

i want it to be responsive and be a straight bolt on kit, so i dont have to do much fcucking around with lines oil hoses water etc.

tr43 is a good price/power upgrade.... but thats just it.... for me to upgrade to a tr43 I also had to get bigger injectors, afm and fuel pump... but then again.. I want to make more power..so I got parts that will help me in the future and allow for the turbo to make more power...

if you want to keep it still stockish and dont plan to make much over 200ish rwkw you could chuck it on and keep the stock supporting mods.

or... to be completely safe you could just get another stock s2 turbo (depending on quality) for between 300-500?

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
