Garrett GT2860R-5 good for 360 hp each specs below

kn707160-5.jpg

GT2860R-707160-5 turbo changers which are direct replacement items for the Nissan skyline R32/33/34 GTR. They are rated to 360hp each, 720hp combined, and have the following specifications:

* Ball bearing

* Oil & Water-cooled bearing system

* T25 turbine inlet flange with threaded bolt holes instead of traditional through holes

* Turbine housing has a unique "compact" 5-bolt outlet that is not interchangeable with traditional T25 5-bolt outlets

* Turbine housing is cast from high-nickel "Ni-Resist" material for extreme applications

* Turbine wheel is cast from "Inconel" material for extreme applications

* Direct replacement upgrade turbocharger for GT2556R (702987-7) used on Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R

* Great size for applications w/ packaging constraints

* Ideal for smaller displacement engines making up to 360 hp

* Turbine housing option available

* Turbine housing options allow turbo to be outline-interchangeable with other turbos using the traditional 5-bolt turbine housing. Housing fits over turbine wheel but actuator/wastegate fitment may need to be adjusted.

P2100101.jpg

ordered a full urethane diff mount bush kit from uas in Sydney

the worn rubber just above the hicas

P2100099.jpg

What i thought was a fuel pump

turned out to be an afm issue but oddly enough upon opening them and buying all the soldering gear the connectors had not come loose inside which is the main problem with rb26 afm's

althogh there was a little surface rust around some of the solders on the board

so popped on to sau and the prices for used ones went from $150 for the pair up to $850

i went to molindiner and got the cheaper ones and they were as new

we plugged them in and car is well again

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
