Howdi!

I have a couple of questions.

What is the size of a stock R33 GTST turbo?

What good would a GT28 roller bearing turbo be on a R33 GTST?

Also, if you run the above turbo without an intercooler, what are the side effects?

Your help would be much appreciated... I have been having a heated discussion with someone regarding this topic.

Thanks.

Erica.

RB25 runs a T3... swap commonly done to r32s or rb20/ca18 in general...

GT28 and T28 are totally different btw... GT28 is a fair wack bigger...

GT28 should spool up ok - it wont spool as quick as the standard T3... but prolly 300rpm after or so?

GT28 without front mount would be pushing it thats for sure - especially with summer coming up it would ping badly

reminder - coolers do drop inlet temps down... but they are worse for engine temps as they block the rad air flow a bit - aftermarket radiators this summer peoples!

cheeky, you know that a lot of us are too shy to answer your question(s) just in case John prove us wrong :P

When are you getting the 33? Will it be white again?

If I have my pick I will go for the silver one with nismo wheel on it...hint...hint :D

Hey dude...

I spoke to John about it, he isn't firmiliar with GTSTs as he is with GTRs. Thats ok though. yeah those nismo rims are totally tuff.

I was thinking about getting an 33 and totally love my skylines, but I've decided on something of german quality and style, its just easier, maybe next year I'll get another skyline.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
