Nope, around $1100 trade.

But by as they come with wheels (cartridge assembly), labour/balancing to remove and refit given the 3037S is not a off-shelf cartridge IIRC, it'll probably be around 1600-1800 total rebuild price from a reputable rebuilder.

Could be more, but i doubt it'll be any less

so ur saying it would cost me more than to buy a brand new turbo?

so if i can get the turbo for $500 im coming up even, then ive gotta pay for it to be shipped down there and back...and then the labour

If you can buy a HKS 3037S for $1800, i'll buy 10.

The turbo you have can ONLY be purchased with the cartridge/CHRA. They are not rebuildable.

You purchase the whole thing and it comes with front/rear wheels. You need housings then, actuator etc.

I could be wrong and making a dick of myself but.....

He said a HKS 3037s, those are the Garrett versions, HKS get them off Garrett and alter them for even better response/power.. etc... thats why HKS call it a 3037s and Garrett call it a 3076r

As above, that is not a 3037S

Pretty sure the 3037S (HKS) was the only 3076 series to come with a certain size wheel trim.

Its trivial at best in terms of performance gain however, but there is no way they are $1800 new. Only HKS have them 3037S

ok now that we are on the same brainwave, i would be better off buying new Garret GT3076R for $1750 than buying a 2nd hand HKS 3037S and getting it repaired and costing me maybe more....

In reality a Garrett GT3076R is a HKS GT3037S without the bell mouthed insert piece and a HKS turbine housing .

In recent years you could get the 52 and 56 compressor trim versions ex Japan and the matching port shrouded compressor housings as well .

HKS added their own unique bits to an as supplied Garrett turbo , it would not be cost effective for them to buy turbochargers and alter them . They'd have them made to spec which they do/did .

A .

As above, just to confirm that the 3037S core is the same as the garrett item. Both the 52 and 56 trim CHRA can be purchased new from GCG.

The unique items added to the turbo by HKS are the housings. If you were to pick up a busted 3037S WITH THE HOUSINGS for the right price, provided you can still use the housing (not damaged when the turbo blew) you will be able to replace the CHRA with ease.

Both 56 and 52 trim versions available from GCG for under $1400 retail:

The HKS "S" suffix should denote that it runs a "free floating" spec that requires an external gate.

A "Pro S" suffix denotes an internally gated turbine housing.

I sourced a Pro S housing and used it with an assembly sourced new from Garrett. As Adrian said, it comes without the bell mouth insert but otherwise it's the same unit.

    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan.
