this may be a stupid question but i was wondering is this could be done

get a r33 compressor and exhaust housing and machine them out to fit this

http://page13.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auct...ction/r10821691 (only buy one of them)

would this work? i was just thinking that a new high flow turbo costs about $2000 and if you did it this way it would cost about $1000. it would have brand new bearings and wheels. i know it wouldnt be the same as having a gt2530 but would it be reliable?

just a thought

anyone?

I suppose it also depends on how much it would cost to machine them and also how perfect they make it.

If the cost is too high to machine them and also depending on cost of postage and duty to import bearings, it might not be worth it if you are only saving a small amount?

If you search the net you can find GT series turbos for less than $2000.

I got a GT30R for $1700 but also found a guy in the U.S which said he would send it for US$1050 not including freight.

Check out how much someone like Precision turbo's would machine before deciding anything like this.

Hope that sort of helps.

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
