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

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By sonicii · Posted

      How much have you lowered?  I had 350Z springs in the rear and was able to pull the camber into factory spec with the factory arms on the rear, obviously the front ran negative camber as it isn't adjustable, but rotating the wheels regularly evened out the wear.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Either the installer needs to come back, you need an auto electrician, or you need to learn automotive electricals yourself.   First step Id look at is where that big thing came out of, is there still things unplugged at that location? Maybe they just forgot to put a relay in or something?

      Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.
