Hi,

I'm pretty sure that the turbo on my r33gtst s2 has just let go.

Waiting to confirm with the shop but no boost and lots of noise from turbo. Doesnt look good :-(

Anyone have anything local for sale?

Anyone know a local place to get the turbo Hi flowed? I asked one mob and they said it cant be done as it has ceramic (I thought the whole point was to replace with steel!!)/

Lastly, If I do go a larger turbo any thoughts on setup? I been reading a bit on the forced induction forums but too many options for me.

My car is relatively stock with Dump pipe,Turbo back exhaust, etc. Has recently had a h/duty nismo clutch put in it.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Jump on the hyper gear website and have a look at their direct bolt ons

Also if yours isn't cracked you can send yours off to them and for around $900 they will repair and highflow it

Probably the best option for a stock setup unless your aiming for higher numbers then you have to start looking at other things

Around 190-210 maybe but you would need a tune so if your going cheap then maybe looking into an apexi safc

That will allow you to lean out the top end making better power. Right now with that setup will make te standard computer run pretty rich because it will trip put with all the air running in and just rich it up to be safe

What goal are you aiming for and we can tell you what Oi would need.

GCG turbo's can high flow it, no idea of price though but they have a very good reputation.

Might be worth having a read of this thread, http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/55845-rb25-turbo-upgrade-all-dyno-results/ check for other people running a similar setup to you and see what their results are like. Might give you some idea of which way you want to go.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
