Supposedly R32 High Flowed Turbo Questions (Pics Inside)

[jakez88]

hey guys i made a thread about a turbo i just recently bought just recently and from what some SAUers have seen from pictures, they believe it to be a high flowed r32 turbo. i bought it off a guy that was wrecking a rb25det if i can remember and also told me it was auto but have no idea if this is true.could have possibly been high flowed in japan.

a friend of mine is helping me install this on to my r32 gtst (rb20det) and have just run into a few weird things. we believe the rear housing is different to a standard 32 turbo rear housing? and front compressor seems to be different. i know its a long shot but from the pictures below can anyone point out anything they notice that has been changed on this turbo for me? anything unusual at all? also what types of lines it owuld need to be installed into my 32 as one of the water lines seemed not to match up. any recommendations of places i can get liens for this would also be very much appreciated.

Yeah I rekin it's a highflow as well

the back of the comp housing isn't the stock for sure Looks like a t4 core maybe a t3 t4 highflow ?

The inducer on comp housing looks like its bored bigger and had a hone as well to suit bigger comp wheel

Actuator rod looks different to factory 33 as well

As for the lines take it to a shop that does braided lines some autobahns do speed flow fittings and could knock something up for ya

Also I belive that it's a rb20det turbo that's been highflowed

Because the r33 series one has 45vstamped on comp cover

And neo turbo has 45v2 I may get corrected but it's something along them limes

looks a hell of a lot like the VG30DET turbo ive got at home. . . . .whatever it might be just fit it to your motor and get it tuned to suit and enjoy

only a slight highflow as well. maybe stage 1. my old highflow had the whole lip machined out on the exhaust wheel. 25 turbo does'nt have tapped point on compressor housing either

Looks like a vl turbo to me

Looks like a vl turbo to me

No way man looks like a 20 high flow with the rb25 rear housing

Looks like a plain bearing vg30 turbo, I hope you didn't pay to much for it.

very highly doubt it buddy.

vg30det have 45vs on compressor cover and op6 rear housing which this doesnt have. also rear wheel is heaps bigger than a stock vg30det wheel so yeh don't think so. getting very mixed reactions...i know its a 32 turbo but in terms of high flow specs just not sure so yeh just hoping someone can see something they recognise through compressor and rearhousing.exhaust wheel modifications. thanks everyone for your input but any other input would be appreciated.

can anyone confirm if these lines should be fine for the turbo also.

It's a mystery bag.

The wheels don't appear to be much bigger then stock.

It's a plain bearing cartridge

It's not an rb20 or 25 cartridge so no point looking for rb specific line kits. Different oil feed needed. The link above doesn't have the right oil feed adapter either.

Honestly, don't waste your time on it.

[jakez88]

Ah no worries thanks for letting me know mate. I'll take the turbo somewhere and get some lines made up for it. Can anyone recommend a place in victoria. Just dont know much in terms of fittings, lines and connections.

Be sure to put up dyno results when you get them. It will be very interesting to see what this turbo does.

[GTScotT]

the housings are R32 housings (04u on the exhaust side, R33 is 2IU R34 OP6)

its definitely a high flow, god knows what specs

[cherring]

The centre housing where it connects to the back of the compressor housing looks exactly like the R32 turbo that Hypergear highflowed for me. Compressor housing is R32 turbo, it has the hose connecting up to it which RB25 turbos don't have.

[jakez88]

Oh one thing I noticed was where the oil drain pipe goes...thers actually another one on the opposite side...is this normal? You can probably notice it on the 2nd last pic of the first post. Cause at the moment im more concerned about the lines and fittings and what it needs to run properly on my rb20. So its a rb20 high flowed turbo but need to get the connections.

[BOOZTJUNKEY]

I'd say the others is the oil feed line mate oil drain will be the bigger of the 2 .

Also definitely get it dyno I would be intersted to see results

[GTScotT]

yea thats an older style 2 bolt oil feed, its typical of an old T series turbo

Would this kit fit guys?

[BOOZTJUNKEY]

Doubt it that's for rb20det core just take it to a shop and get them to eat lines to suit
