Just need to know what the phyiscal/visual difference's are between the gt2860 -5, -7, -9, -10 etc.....

Some of you missed the etc lol

obviously on the GTR specific 5,7,9,10s they look identical yet gt2860 can mean other turbos too, IE gt2860rs which is completely different to look at.

Just make sure you buy the right one to suit your application, we are only assuming you want this for a GTR as you have not stated in your OP.

Thanks,

the part number is on the ID tag that it riveted to the CHRA.

Also if you measure the compressor inducer that will tell you what model you have; With the exception of -9 and -5 which have the same inducer but different exducers.

-7: 44.5mm

-9: 47.2mm (59.4mm Exducer)

-5: 47.2mm (60.0mm Exducer)

-10: 51.2mm

Actually you need to check the compressor housing size and A/R ratio . I think the GTR style GT2860R turbos can have either a T3 or T04B sized compressor housing depending on which compressor wheel it has .

I'm not 100% sure without looking but I think the ones that are 0.60 A/R are T04B sized internally where the 0.4x A/R ones are T3 sized internally .

If you could get the comp housings off the diameter of its backing plate at the diffuser section (the step outwards from the comp wheels exducer tips) would give it away .

Also I seem to remember OE GTR turbos having a turbine housing A/R size smaller than some of the RB26 style GT2860R turbos , I think OE and some of the more responsive 2860R's had 0.48 A/R T housings and the higher performance ones 0.64 A/R T housings .

Most would know that GTR turbos use a more compact turbine housing outline that single turbo versions and the comp covers have the two bolt in and out flanges plus the two eyes at the bottom to mount the fluid junction gadgets .

Cheers A .

    • 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.
