Hey guys,

just had this built in Perth.will be on the car soon and tuned at the end of the month.be interesting to see what it pulls

Nissan VQ25 custom upgrade.


Billet GT30 compressor with ceramic ball bearings and bronze cages . HKS GT3035 turbine wheel used for great spool up. Major machining undertaken to make it fit but all in a days work here at Per4manz

Looks the goods, but I think you will have boost spiking issues unless you open up the wastegate hole and run a larger puck...

What is the thrust load tolerance like with the ceramic bearings? The small rear housing will cause a lot of pressure on the shaft. (partly why the Garrett cores have so many problems when shoved in the stock housing.)

I look forward to seeing what it can do, when is it getting tuned?

I raised the point of spiking issue's but grant has assumed me it should be fine (he gave me a full in detail description of it all too)

I have no idea the load tolerances but I'll ask when I pick it up today he's done plenty of rb25 turbos similar to ours,I know he changes the casing to a bronze because the garret phenolic one's let go and the ball bearings are made of nitrate and bores the oil feed to his own specs

Can't get into tuner before the 30th so literally I'll call on the 30th to book and go from there

Does he realise there are three oil restrictors in the sump? I can tell you there isn't much oil supply at the turbo...

I did mention it several time's, it's just what he does as a standard for his Highflow service. Does the same for rb's

Rb don't have the same restrictors setup as vq's do.

It is in the line in an rb, easily replaced.

I was under the impression that on the vq25 with a bush bearing scotty drilled out the banjo's?

This one is ball bearing and getting new braided line's, I would think that should do it?

How much is this costing you? Pm me if you like.

Perth based.

Best thing to do would be to contact grant directly. But it was cheaper than what a lot cheaper than the other places offering a similar service/product

I'll have results in a few weeks once I can put it on and get it tuned

For the info on the wheel and thrust load. He was busy when I picked the turbo up and a mutual friend dropped in so don't have the answers . he has the wheels he uses on his Facebook Page and the ball bearings and cages too

That would depend how much oil the ceramic bearings require, even with the braided line the oil will only dribble out the turbo end of the hose...

The best course of action would be to open up the three in the sump to around 4mm or so; then drill the final external (on the side of the block) to perhaps 0.5mm dia over whatever Grant specifies for the turbo feed.

That way you'll always have more than enough supply; but the braided line isn't running full system pressure. Then your braided line isn't the "weakest link" in the system.

That's kinda what I was thinking along the lines of :) is why I called you the other day :P

    • Ok, just the way you wrote it made it look like you had the stagger the wrong way around 
    • I was getting anxious with the DVLA not knowing if the paperwork is fine or not, so I rang them. No update had been given, but I  was reassured that providing the box was ticked on the V750 then the application will go through fine. I've been checking the DVLA website pretty much every day, in the hope that it would have been done. Fast forward to Monday 29th  and I was greeted with a new screen on the check, and it finally showed as Taxed and MOT'd, woohoo! The car was in desperate need of a clean, not knowing when this day was coming it was put off. As far as I was concerned I had another 3 weeks  I'm not normally one for using snow foam, but I wanted to give it another try It hasn't cleaned up too bad considering it's 21 years old and lived on a boat for a number of weeks. The personalised number plate is J2 XBK, an illegally spaced number plate would have it read J2X BK. BK could either represent  the colour black or Baker, which is my surname. I filmed the first drive, the Youtube link will be at the end. I used the same driving route I did with the 323F V6 when I had a new exhaust installed, heres a couple of photos A few more since then Youtube video can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjkFHPzjGDw
    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
