Hi guy's,

My current turbo has some smoking problems, so I am after a T28bb off the RB20 S2 (T3 flange).

Must be the bb version, have no major shaft play, oil issues or chips in the wheels.

Or even if some one has a good t28bb core that i could buy?.

If not,

I was thinking of maybe upgrading to the RB25 turbo (depending on price), the only issue is that my 1.3ltr swift will suffer from lag, tho the extra power would be ok.

Any ides on how much bigger the R33 turbo is?.

Thanks

Andy

for your information bud, there is only one T28 turbo that was ever produced and that came on a nissan pulsar GTIR, the other T28/T3 style turbo's come off SR series motors like SR20's, the turbo that you seem to need is one off any RB series motor. thats why your looking for the t3 style exhaust flange.

So there is only one t28 ever produced & it was on the "gtir"?.

"the other T28/T3 style turbo's come off SR series motors like SR20's"

I don't think that the SR20's use T3 flange, hence the post wanting a turbo from an RB...?

"the turbo that you seem to need is one off any RB series motor. thats why your looking for the t3 style exhaust flange"

The turbo that i have is from a late model R32, that is a T28bb, same as the R33 (but with different smaller rear exhaust housing, both T3 flange!) & yes the T3 is what i have asked for?.

I have checked Turbo's from 89 R32's & the core is different, they are non bb, the later model r32's have an extra bolt in the core & is a good give away that there is a difference also the the core size its self is different...

Please tell me if i am wrong.......

I'm not a guru just trying to pass on some info so that we may all grow and prosper.

I have some docs that you can read to help you get your head around what came off what. at the same time bear in mind that everything you read is not the gospel so if you ask some one who has been in the industry or better worked with some one with years of experience then they will tell you what i have blerted out.

"T28/t3 style" is different from "T28 front and t3 flange" have a read and see what you come up with. as with this extra bolt, I'm not sure youll have to send me a pic of it

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
