Hi all

I've finally got around to installing my hks gtrs turbo on my GTT and I'm unsure of which ports in it are oil feed and water feed and drain. Could anyone please confirm which ports these are?

Also if anyone could confirm which ports are oil and water feed on my engine block/bay that would also be greatly appreciated :)

Cheers

Hmm.

I'll be nice.

There are 2 water ports.

There is one drain.

There is one oil inlet.

The drain is larger than the inlet. You can even look at your old turbo as they are the same oil and water setup.

Good luck.

Sorry I'm fully aware that there's both a water feed and drain and oil feed and drain (I'm not that dumb). It's obvious which one the oil drain is but I'm not 100% sure which the other 3 are as there are no markings or diagrams I can find on the internet. Just asking on here for clarification as I don't want to destroy a hks turbo from getting the oil and water feeds mixed up. I posted that at 1:30 in the morning so sorry for not making myself clear

Looking at the turbo again on the top and bottom are 2 thicker lines

And on the sides are 1 smaller line and the oil drain

Safe to assume the smaller one is the oil feed and the thicker line at the top is water feed ?

It gonna sound harsh but if you cant figure that out you should think twice about your ability to fit it properly... anyone can bolt things together but if you dont understand why it often runs into issues later on.

Sorry I posted this asking for confirmation as I thought someone would know. Would like to be 100 % sure about something before I do it to my car, not. 99%. I've figured out the oil feed and just want to makes sure I don't mix up the water ones

Also I'm referring to the positioning of the inlets in respect to the pictures that I uploaded. When I say top I'm referring to the inlet at the top of the photo etc. thought what I was saying was pretty straight forward ..

Was just trying to sort out which is the inlet and outlet for water as I thought it had to go in a specific way but it's all sorted now. Found out it's dependent on the angle of the turbo and nothing to do with the internals or anything

It's not really even dependent on the angle of the turbo. Given that the oil definitely has a top and a bottom (ie, drain on the bottom) that means that the water definitely is located on each side. Sure, if the turbo is cocked over on an angle then one water connection will be higher than the other.....but there's little enough difference in that height to justify saying that one or the other must be the inlet. A hot turbo will thermosiphon forwards or backwards just as happily once the engine is shut off, and it hardly matters if the water is going the normal direction or the opposite direction under those circumstances.

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
