Hi !

Could anyone tell me what turbo this is.

I bought it as a R34 N1 turbo though not sure if it is or not.

I have done a HEAP of searching and have found that 34 N1 turbos should have :

0.60 front

0.64 rear

9 blade rear wheel

No markings on the front compressor housing

These turbos have:

0.42 front

0.64 rear

9 blade rear wheel

No markings on front housing

Does this turbo look like an R34 N1 ?

There is no plaque

On the rear it has written:

0.64 428-2 TR7093

Any help appreciated !!! :thumbsup:

Ok I will let you know these turbos are R34 N1 turbine because of the following:

1. it has no markings on front compressor while nismo turbos do ie a/r .60

2. it has nine blades at the back while r32 nismo turbs have 12

3. if it spins really, really, really easily than that means its a ball bearing turbo, while r32 nismo turbos are not.

Yeah those three points are valid

BUT

It has a compressor A/R of 0.42 instead of the 0.60 A/r

Apparently all R34 N1 turbos have a compressor A/R of 0.60

The A/R I can see written inside the "tube" part of the compressor housing (sorry not sure of the name of that particular bit of the turbo but where the compressed air goes out of the turbo and off to the intercooler).

OK guys

I ?think? I have similar turbos currently fitted to my R32 GTR (only just)

Part Number is : 14411-AA403 (both turbos did have the plaque)

Which according to Nissan are series 3 R34 N1s – with SS internals and BB rollers. They also have 9 blades

BUT

Mine also have a small separator between the rear turbine wheel and the waste gate (which yours do not seem to have – tho the picture is a little fizzy)

I have only just had them fitted and have not had the chance to fire them up yet, so I can't tell you how they will go. I'm waiting for PCF + EBC to be fitted in a week or so.

I'm also fairly sure they are .42 A/R on the comp side (can't be sure and the pics I have do not show it) and they came off an R34 V-spec II AFAIK

I do have a SQ (silly question) Are Nismo and N1 the SAME thing?

My understanding is that there are N1 turbos and Nismo turbos – and only the Nismo turbos have the .60 compressor housing - but I could be making it all up :cheers:

Indeed they are the specs of the 34N1s that UAS are selling

A search of the forum will reveal that there are many types of 34N1, and I have now found that they came out in a 0.42 compressor as well as a 0.60 A/R

Pete you got the ones with the 0.60 compressor which are the ones I was after, so I'm selling these and will try and get some with the larger compressor housing. Either that or I'm also working on the possibility of swapping the comp covers over to the larger housing.

EDIT: have found a pair of 0.60 A/R covers so will see if these fit once they arrive. in the meantime have taken off the market. if they dont fit i'll have to put them up for sale again. here's hoping!! :(

Flicking through an old mag and they made mention of N1 turbos and NISMO Group A turbos. Both available through Nissan apparently.

Saying the N1s were same size as standard with better flow capabilities obviously and that the Group A turbos were identified by there larger 0.6 compressor housing. Maybe this is the confusion or group A turbos are something different again?

    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
