I believe its ceramic exhaust and steel inlet from the look of it, if its blades are brown I've been told its its ceramic but I'm no a turbo expert, heres a quote that might help

The turbo you're talking about is most likely a 45v3. The specs of this turbo are very close to a T3 super 60. They were based off of garrett designs but actually made by Nissan. One of the cool things about this turbo is that it uses a composite (yes, plastic) compressor wheel and a ceramic turbine shaft and wheel. These are the lightest materials available and combined with the cermaic ball bearing center section, they boost increadibly fast. I have used these turbos on a lot of custom turbo set-ups I have done for people and they always spin pretty damn fast at idle.

One of the problems that you are going to run into is that the materials used for the turbine wheel limits its boost potential. With the 45v1-4 turbos, you can only hit a maximum of around 15psi. There are four different variations of that turbo (hense 1-4) and each has it's own slight differences. The 45v3 is pretty much the same thing as a 45v2, just it has the composite compressor wheel. The 45v1 has a slightly smaller compressor, the 45v4 has a slightly larger turbine housing. Some people have used different combinations of components to make some pretty wicked turbos. Three of those turbos come on the Rb25det motors, differing from R32-R33 models, The other, and the largest, comes off of the VG30det (the older single turbo model.)

so that seems to confirm its stainless steel compressor.

These are off early model Nissan Cima/Leopards i think, well they are in NZ anyways the early model 300zx's were single cam vg30's whilst the Cima's were twin cam single turbo

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
