ahh, so all N1s are R34GTR turbos, but not all 34 turbos are N1s :D

makes sense now :)

>_<

All N1s are N1s - not ceramic

All R34 turbos are R34 turbos - all ceramic

Each N1 had a different variant. R32/R33 N1s are laggy POS turbos,

R34 N1s are the same as Garrett -7

Ive run 300.5kw at the wheels for 7 years in an R32GTR with stock R33 GTR Turbos on 98 and 18psi.

This car is tuned much closer to the bone than i would tune a customers car tho and i now plan to set it up on E85. Ive never found a better power curve than this car at this power level with any aftermarket Turbos so I will not change them. R32 Turbos do fail very quickly tho.

Yea....There are different grades of Inconel so some might be attracted to magnets and others are not.

A better test might be using a multimeter and check for continuity ......Xkalaba you got a meter to check it out?

yeah i've got a multimeter, i can check the set i pulled out, do you know what to look for to tell the difference ?

R34 N1s and -7s are similar but not the same, they have different comp wheel and housing.

gtr turbos

all turbos are listed with specs here

Dont know if your meter has a continuity function but touch the two probes together and turn the selector till you hear a constant beep, then just hold the probes on two different points on the turbine wheel....If it beeps that means that the wheel is a conductor and therefore metallic

If your meter does not have the above function, touch the two probes together and turn the dial to measure resistance(ohms) till you see the display zero off, again place the probes on two points of the turbine wheel and if you see it zero off or you get a small reading it is conductive.

Similarly with either method above, you can touch it on a known metal like the comp housing and you will hear it beep or get a reading of almost zero ohms

Ceramic is not a conductor and will not give any beep or reading

Hope you understand

snap on, so it better have it

thats what i was thinking, but good to confirm, cheers

the N1s turbos have a .64 rear housing and the wheel is bigger to but you need a set of verniers to tell, some have.60 front housing

  • 4 years later...

Pretty sure he knows that part. Can u visually tell if the turbo is different from an N1 or the wheel is different?

Bringing it back,

Ceramics have a 12 sided looking nut on the end of the turbine which is one big piece of ceramic.

Inconel 'steel' wheel rear turbine wheel I have seen them with a 3 sided rounded nut on the end of the casting...

You can see it when looking at the skyline gtr turbo comparison photo on the world wide web...

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
