Hey guys,

I'm located in Canada and am trying to gauge the value on these turbos. (Theres not many for sale around Canada for me to gauge the value on)

I have two R34 N1 turbos.. One is in great condition (minimal shaft play - spins great) and the other is very tight but has no wheel damge - it will have to be rebuilt.

Does anyone have an idea what these things are worth?

Thanks

Ye you'd say both in good condition - maybe 1500.

But with a busted one, someone still has to buy a new one @ $1100 so on its own it's not worth a lot as if you do buy a new one...

You then have new, one used - so realistically it doesnt make sense to spend 500 on a 2nd hand one when you can buy 2x new ones for the extra 500

How tight is tight? (geddit? tongue.gif)

nar seriously... most turbos 'tighten' up when they're taken off the car... I've had my brand new disco potato off the car a few times, and after 10,000kms, the bearings felt tighter and more restrictive, as soon as you put it back on the car with oil flowing through it, they kept spinning for 20secs after you cut the motor...

Keep in mind they have some sort of appeal for 4cyl owners. I've seen R34 N1 turbos used as singles on a few S13s... Maybe check the Sentra forums too...

Keep in mind a brand new core from Garrett for a 2860rs is about $800 bucks, the housings could be fitted with a little machining.

    • A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.
    • Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.
    • Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.
    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that
