I just did a test fit for the new turbo, a t3-t4.

I think i would need a t3 flange as a spacer between the manifold and the turbo what do you think?

And for the wastegate, i was going to weld it on the manifold but i realize that i might not have the sapce i would need to.

I'm not to sure about this maybe you can help me?

Here's the picture of the place.

yes. you do.

i spotted one on my garage floor last weekend. I am not sure how it got there though lol

lol, since i'm in Canada, the shipping would cost more than the flange lol

I gotta find longer stud i guess!

And for the wastegate, any of you have an idea?

Oh and for the clearance, i turned by 20 degree anticlockwise the front housing, tell me that this was safe and i did'nt f**ked up my turbo!

Yes thats fine to do. The only thing you need to make of is that the oil drain is as close to vertical as possible.

You can get sandwich-plate type spacers that incorporate a wastegate into them but this effectively brings the turbo very close to the strut tower.

I reckon you could fit a wastegate on top of your manifold just where it collects at the turbo flange but alot of mucking around.

You could also weld the wastegate onto the actual turbine housing, again alot of mucking around because of the materials you are dealing with.

Considered going lowmount stainless manifold with gate of even highmount?

To make this possible, i will have to turn the rear housing by 90 degree. When i turn the front housing i doesn't change the slope of the oil drain.

As you can see on the picture, i received the turbo with the oil plug horizontal and the water plug vertical. I don't know if i can turn the rear housing also.

Do you have a picture of sandwich plate spacer? And where i can buy these?

Yeah i have consider going hight mount or low mount but i cant afford an hks at 1800$

I could pay 800 canadian $ tax in but i'm already over budget since a while lol

      How To: "Refabricate" a Stagea 260RS/R33 GTR Speedo Sensor

      By aznriptide859 · Posted

      Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.

      Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.

      Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old

      Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
