R34 Turbo + S15 Shaft & Bearing = ?

[EliSun]

Hi Guys,

First post here, I frequent these forums quite alot, sponging info on one of the greatest series of cars in the world, which I also happen to own much like most of you here.

I used to have a 180SX and since getting my 'line, haven't looked back (but who doesn't miss their RWD Turbo Nissan eh?)

Now I've got a R33 GTS25t with

Apexi Pod

Catback Exhaust

Trust Type RS copy Atmospheric Blow-off Valve

and R32 Boost Actuator (Best mod i've done so far )

Next mods on the list are an R34 GTT intercooler (decided against front mount) and R34 GTT Turbo in my quest for a fast, daily driven street car. I'm going to mod my car as much as I can within the limits of DOING IT MYSELF.

I hear GTT turbos are an improvement over the 25t turbo, but still have the nylon shaft and ceramic turbine as the R33.

However, S15's come factory with steel turbo components AFAIK.

From what I know, S15 SR and Skyline RB turbos are both T28s

so what I'd like to know is are the S15 turbo components (shaft and turbine) able to be swapped into an R34 GTT turbos compressor and turbine housing to make the turbo that Nissan should've fitted to Skylines from the factory?

Any help at all will be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hey there! Welcome to the skyline world, nice mods by the way! Buddy the skyline r33 series II turbo's are made out of nylon and yes they are weaker than the 34 turbo's but the 34 turbos are still stronger. The r33 turbo's are a T3 there a bit bigger than the T28s but the T28's internals can be fitted if you modify it. My stock r33 turbo has been highflowed with a ATR28G2 profile with 71mm compressor. Runs very good also pulls harder to .

Thanks,

Geraus.

You might be able to get it in... but for what?

You've gotta pay for a full balance and so on for the turbo anyhow.

So you'd be better off sitting larger wheels and getting machining done for a minor additional cost IMO
