OK so ive found a turbo from a VQ30DET and i was wondering if it was the same or slightly larger than a VQ25DET turbo from my M35

for the price he is asking, its probably worth having on my shelf incase mine dies in the ass

the one for sale has 4P2 on the compressor housing, along with nissan. he is certain this is from an VQ30DET, but id like to be sure before i buy it.

can someone please look at FAST and tell me if they have the same part numbers? or any information regarding these turbos?

vq30det.com didnt have much on the specs of the turbo.

thanks guys!

From what I have heard so far it is unlikely that it is a straight fit as the M35 is described as having quite a unique turbo.

Give me a call and if you want to drop around this evening or i can organise to give you the FAST disc tonight.

Cheers

ahh yes the FAST disc! hmm tonight. ill PM you andy!

the turbos MAY be the same. if the block design etc is the same for all VQ engines (only bore and stoke may be different) then i rekon they might be similar in design and size (the turbos i mean)

Although the turbo might look similar they are actually far from identical. neither of the housings are the same so you wont be able to bolt any of the compressor side factory cast fittings to it. Even the exhaust housing is different.

Ive been down this path and its not worth the hassle.

Ive got some good pictures of the vq25 turbo if you want to compare things.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?

      Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
