hey all im looking at putting a bigger turbo on my 33 s2 ive found someone willing to sell their turbonetics t60-1 turbo with exhaust mani and dump with a wastegate and red jacket bosch injectors (600CC) i think also for sale with it is a EMS 4424 Stinger ECU system, Air filter fabrication etc

Okay so I've been told the T60 is an older turbo design etc and i should go for something newer but the price is making me think twice i would also need a metal cat i've been told and also the EMS Stinger isnt a good application for my setup on a R33.. would i also need to modify my intercooler piping and also my intake mani should it be changed to aftermarket?

anyways im seeking some help here, im getting coilovers put on my car anyways so i was looking for some help regarding a bigger turbo.

and total cost of installation and tuning where is a good place that does this and at a good price

thanks in advance guys..

There's a reason someone is selling that old turbo. They want a new one. Why would you go to the effort and expense of getting stuff made up to suit a crappy old turbo when it will effectively lock you into using that crappy old turbo (unless you pay more to modify again)? You could spend the same money required to fit the crappy old stuff on making brand new shiny stuff fit, and the only cost difference is that between the old crappy stuff and the brand new shiny stuff.

Just because something is cheap is not a reason to jump on it.

For quite some time you've been able to buy a ball bearing cartridge for those brand new . Search T4R 60-1 .

Originally they were a Garrett turbo with a T4 P trim turbine and a T4 60-1 compressor (7/7 blade 76mm 60 trim) . T4 turbine housing and T04S 0.70 AR comp housing .

The closest thing these days is probably a GT3576R .

    • 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  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
