looks like one of the ca18/sr20 dump pipes so im going to infer that its a t28, journal bearing off either an s13 or an s14, more likely an s13.

vl's have the same turbo setup as skylines.

T25 and T28 have the wastegate on the exhaust part of the turbo, not on the dump..

So if its a VL turbo, why does it say nissan motor on the front? Is it a T28 turbo internals or T3 internals?

What I can sort of make out/read:

It has F6.11.22 emmossed on the compressor outlet.

It also has PAT NO 3058787 AIRSEARCH embossed on the back of the compressor housing.

It also has OYJ N5S embossed on the exaust housing inlet.

The dump pipe has 649 @ KN71 embossed on it.

Tha actuator says AS VALVE ASN82-10

Does that help?

Yep, looks like a stock VL turbo to me bud.

EDIT: Actually, it doesn't have water connections does it? The comp housing is that from a VLT, however the core itself looks a bit different as im pretty sure VLT's all have water lines. It's not off an old 300ZX or something is it?

As others have said, the VLT's had Nissan motors in them...

Nissan had their turbos made by the company Garrett, so the turbo would called a Garrett T28 Turbo Charger in which (From memory) the S13/S14/S15 Silvia's, R32 GTS-T's and R32 GTR's used the same type of turbos.

SR20: S13, S14 use T25's with T25 flanges

SR20: S15 uses T28 with T25 flange

RB20 uses a T25 with a T3 flange - ceramio exhaust wheel

RB25 uses T28 with a T3 flange - ceramic exhaust wheel

RB25NEO ... T3 flange - Nylon exhaust wheel

RB30 uses T3 with a T3 flange - Steel wheels

is that correct?

What does a 300zx use then? The big single turbo ones? Much different to the VL T3 turbo?

omfg i got this turbo almost the same as yours and cannot find an answer. mines been highflowed. it has 6 bolt exhaust pattern. my part numbers...

compressor housing has 16v 5 on it

on the side of the compressor housing has PT1099209

on the back of the compressor housing has PAT NO 3.058.797 and the word AiResearch

on the exhaust side it has 0.63 (standard turbo size) then the number 3 and either and i or L or the number 1. its just a line lol.

and also your compressor housing bolts that hold the wishbones on the crown say 7, which is grade of tensile. mines 8.8 which is stronger. why? anyway...

have no idea what its off, guy who i got it off says standard VL turbo. is water cooled. id say nissan just made like 93879238742394 types of t3's for their engines. and just fitted whichever ones either made power or made them more money. gl! and let me know if anyone has the same or whatever

The compressor housing is def VLT T3 , I have one and it's native wheel here on the desk .

Yes VL T3's were water cooled where Z18ET and FJ20ET were not .

If you look closely on that turbine housing it should have 0.63 cast into it possibly on the cartridge side of the mounting flange . The difference between FJ20 and RB30 0.63 A/R Nissan housings was the oxygen sensor location , on FJ's its on the turbine housing and from memory RB30ET's had them on the dump pipe .

That turbine doesn't look right but then again its a l o n g time since I've looked at those Nissan/Garrett T3's .

For the record the cartridge is Garrett and the housings were supplied by Nissan to suit the particular application .

Cheers A .

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
