Hi guys, I'm upgrading the turbos on my gtr and have aquired thusfar:

-700cc injectors

-2860-5s (without actuators)

-power FC

-nismo afm's

-am performance dumps

-adjustable cam gears

The turbo does not have any oil feed or drain flanges... Should I pull these of my stock turbos? If not can anyone link me to suitable place I could buy them.

Also, what else would you say that I am missing to complete the upgrade? Gaskets ect?

Appreciate the help!

Thanks

Call GCG.

1300 887 267

They have the oil drains there. $65 IIRC. I'm not 100% sure if the stock ones are different to the Afternarket garret stuff, but the HKS drains need to be modified.

Yea, I was going to get my actuators from there. What about oil feed and restrictors? Is there anywhere in particular I should look for them?

just use the factory oil feed lines, the oil drain pipes are best ordered from gcg

Ditch the ECU all together, much better ECU's out there now. Link / Vipec, Haltech. There is nothing wrong with the old Power FC as such, its just that they are very old now and there are better options around. They still use AFM's which are fiddly at times and a MAP Sensor is hassle free in comparison. Power FC dont really offer much by way of upgrades / options. Link, Vipec, Haltech all have lots of options and accessories to add to them. Motorsports stuff, Flex fuel sensor capability, much better boost control options etc

IIRC the drains and all coolant / oil lines should work from the standard turbo's. Just get yourself a stack of new gaskets.

For gaskets try calling Powertune. They are having a moving sale at the moment and may very well have the gasket kits laying around. The kits will come with everything. Copper seals for the coolant and oil lines, new intake gaskets, new flange gaskets etc

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
