MTQ Engine systems are the largest GT dealer in the country. Try them also

As for your problem, I would say very characteristic of valve stem seals in the cylinder head.

that was my mechanics first thought a few months bak, and since then i have completely rebuily the head - new valves,guides,stem seals everything :yes: so now it just leaves the turbo, unless theres ne other issues that we may be looking over?

Pull it out, strip its housings and check the conditions of its wheels. Turbo is suitable for rebuild only if your wheels are in ok condition with out too much of shaft play. Unfortunately most BB turbos would require a new CHRA for overhaul.

Yes the HKS GT3037 Pro S turbos use the same cartridge as Garretts GT3076R turbo .

The cartridge number is 700177-5007 so you can shop around for the best price on one of them .

Anyone who can remove the compressor jamb nut and the oil inlet ferrule (without bending anything) should be able to strip the cartridge and assess it for you . The advantage of a ball bearing center section is that aside from the turbine end piston ring type exhaust gas seal nothing actually rubs against the bearing housing so unless its had some mechanical failing or the wheels are damaged it may be reusable . It really depends on what the turbo shop has in the way of spare parts .

Like the guys said, depends where you take it. Since i live in Perth i got Grant from http://www.per4manz.com/ to rebuild my HKS GT2835 PRO S.

The rear bearing race had collapsed resulting in the wheels JUST touching the comp housing. He repacked the cartridge/ balanced at a fraction the cost of a new core. Still going strong.

    • Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys   
    • perfect, no rush to address the leaking bush then, it's not doing much/anything
    • I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
