Ah shit.

Oh well, I will most likely get them turbo from zoom, as GCG has confirmed it's the right one.

Then it seems that there is NO difference in casting marks or identification between the turbos.

Shite

So reasonably comparable for new, and a bit more than used. Sounds good, comes with warranty so a decent option for those interested.

Ian, I think you are right, but find 220rwkw was too much on stockish suspension so the lod R33 needs plenty to tie the thing down. 280 would be tyre murder :(

Hi Geoff, I've spent more money on suspension than the engine...LOL...Whiteline everything they make for R33 and Bilstein, Strut Braces Front and Rear, Adjustable Caster Rods, Adjustable Upper Rear Camber Rods. And Brakes have been hugely upgraded....Ohh and one of your magnificent Hicas Lock Bars.

Just to throw another spaniard in the works , there is another exhaust housing by Garrett thats 1.06AAR and twin entry T3 flanged for the TA34 turbos that could work . It has no waste gate so not a straight fit but may work for some .

Cheers A .

So here's what I can figure out.

Stay with me.

RB25DET turbo

OP6 on exh housing

45V3 or 45V1 (series 1 and series 2 or R34 GTT turbos)

RB20DET turbo

OP6 on exh housing

16V on comp cover

VG30DET turbo

OP6 OR V45 on exh housing

16V on com cover.

So, there ya go.

i see what u mean by the exhaust inlet side ..distance.... but can i safely say that its not a RB20 turbo?

Matt

It looks like a rb25 compressor and cover with a VG20 exhaust wheel and exhaust housing.

it is BB. you have an unusual turbo there:)

If its a RB25/VG20 combo it will put out about 215rwkw on an rb20. its exactly what i had on my rb20.

hope that helps.

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
