Wtb: M35 Turbo Suitable For Hi Flow

Hi all

if anyone has an old standard M35 turbo they want to sell (or loan), please let me know.

It doesn't have to be working, as long as there are no cracks on the inner turbine & compressor housings.

I'm wanting to get one high flowed & then swap over with mine so as to have minimal time off the road.

Will be happy to return my turbo after this if you want it for your own project (it could be better than your current one).

Alternatively, in the interests of helping out the community, I can make it available for others who would like to do the same swap as me - sort of a loan turbo.

Cheers, Leon.

Sounds like you might be going down the Hypergear route?

I'll also be interested in utilising a loan turbo in a few months if someone is prepared to make one available, or if you want to defray the cost a bit Leon.thumbsup.gif

I would lend my housings out but there's no guarantee I would have a good set if I ever decide to put it back in. I may know where to get another damaged turbo though, I will get back to you.

You guessed it, lol. It looks like the best value option for my needs, but I've only really been thinking about it for a few days.

It makes sense to me to have one ready to go in at the same time as you take the old one out. Could be a bonus if you're paying for workshop time, or if (like me) you forget how you got the bolts out the week before.

Thanks Scott, it'd be great if you stumbled across one in your travels. I'm in no particular hurry as my car is still driveable, for now.

Didn't I read recently where you said you hadn't seen a standard turbo with a cracked housing? But I wouldn't be lending yours out if it is still in good working order.

Haha, they're everywhere it seems. Thanks mate, but I think I'm right to go.

Good to know Jase, I might need one too! :thumbsup:

Did you high flow yours?

That was the plan, just haven't gotten to it. That said, I'm not sure my spare is even stuffed? Has no side to side shaft play, maybe a little in-out play.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...

      Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.

      Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?

      Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
