Hello there,

I'm about to buy a T04R turbo kit, but the turbo probably need new bearings.

I see on garrett's website that they've got this CHRA upgrade:

http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarre...ZR_740759_2.htm

So does this mean I can send the T04R turbo to them and basically have a T04Z come back to me? Although with the same turbine and compressor housings?

Thanks and sorry if this been asked before :(

Correct the T04R and T04Z use the same wheels so the turbine and compressor housings interchange . Actually from memory HKS had the turbine blades slightly cropped in their spec Garrett cartridges but that's not of any real consequence . Other than that the only difference overall would possibly be the turbine housing if its a HKS special .

The complete HKS T04Z uses different housings and would be the pick given a choice .

Thanks...been reading lots of your informative posts too :P

Do you know the major differences between HKS T04R and T04Z housings? Is it those cool looking anti-surge little holes?

Does a CHRA upgrade mean new turbine and comp wheels as well?

    • 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.
    • 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?
