Hey guys,

Well as one of my turbos died last week I've considered an upgrade....

Someone has offered to sell me these turbos:

Group A N1.....the code is something like 14411-06U-00

R34 V Spec II

AR 60-64

5 degree cut rear wheel

360 degree thrust bearing

Steel wheels

Is there some way i can verify that they are of an R34 VSPEC II?

They've done low kms and look to be in great nick.

He's saying he wants $1000 bux.......good price?

Also, how will installing these turbos on my standard R32 GTR improve performance? It has nothing, except for Apexi airfilters and a full exhaust system.

Cheers,

Ali

From what i understand the N1 turbo's have a slightley larger turbine blade than stock giveing a small power improvement for the same rough amount of boost. Of course the main bennefit is that the turbo blades are steel, instead of the stock ceramic ones. This means better reliability and the ability to run more boost than the stock turbos.

The N1 turbo's were designed by Nismo for competition use, offering the best trade in their opinion between response and power. Their the best option for the price for track GTR's, road/race GTR's and fast street GTR's. The spool up time is almost identical to stock, but you can also run boost levels up to 1.3-1.5 bar without fear, unlike the stock ceramic ones.

With the appropriate other mods, Exhaust/IC/Fuel System/ECU and 1.4Bar ive seen a few GTR's make anything between 260KW-330KW at the wheels, depending on tune and dyno.

For $1000 id say they were a good buy.

i wont waste your time on this turbos personally

the turbos you want BRAND NEW are the garret replacements 707160-5

racepec are selling them for around $2400 new

the reason i say dont waste your time are the r34 vspec turbos are still ceramic turbine wheels and still fail and if they fail under the wrong conditions will take the motor with them (like the last r34 i built) and the group "a" are laggy but strong

the gt2560r 707160-5 i use in a light modify combo ,generate well over 500rwhp with basically no lag what so ever (have done a number of these combos now)

so for a little more money now you will never regret it later.

OK bit of confusion, the code hes given matches R32 nismo code, but he reckons that the paperwork is in fact of an R34? Anyways....

Thanks for the feedback guys!

Hopefully i get the turbos sometime today....will take pics when i get them!

Cheers

He was asking about R34 N1 turbos, but I agree with your comment on the Vspec turbos. Did a conversion on the RB25DET with a pair and the front turbine let go at 5psi. Damned ceramic crap.

The R34N1's use inconel instead of steel on the turbine wheel.

Still seems a good price for N1 turbos. The advantage of the R34 N1 is the roller bearing and the inconel turbine.

Just for interest, my turbos are steel wheeled stockies on the GTR, and they produce 260rwkw at 1bar with the stock computer so the N1 should do a bit better. While it's apart why not get some decent dumps and a set of UAS extrude honed manifolds? Of course it's more cash but the time is right.

this turbo 100% not R34 N1 turbo,couse R34 N1 turbo got separate wagste at back of turbo and R34 V-spec2 use same turbo as R34GTR,no any different.hope it wil help.

the one you got more than likely are R32 N1.not Nismo turbo.

couse Nismo turbo's code are RR580 or RR581.

just to ad to the confusion

How much extra dosh are we talking, for the dumpa dn UAS extrude honed manifolds? How will they improve performance? Sorry for the basic quiestions, but although i've owned a whole stack of imports, i really haven't gone all gunz blazing in modifying them......

LoL....that pic with the code saying its nismo has confused me now......so are they normal n1 or nismo n1.....or what not.....:S

I thiink they were called Nismo on the R32.

Take a look at www.nismo.com.au for the UAS stuff. JP is on the forum here as boosted zed and has done some posts on the extrude honed manifolds.

Thanks for the help mate,

appreciate it.

Alright cool....

still no word on improvement on performance?

Please search mate.

The topic of GTR N1 turbo's comes up all the time.

and the usual response is they arent as good as a set of HKS 2530's which are better in every area.

The N1's arent the best turbo. 32 N1's (as it seems these are) are a cheap upgrade, and will get you more power.

But get into a car with a decent set of turbos and you'll cry everytime you drive yours for overlooking it

I tried searching.

The search engine kept telling me something along the lines of "less than four characters" so i can search......that ruled out N1 and GTR. Leaving...turbos. LoL

yeah agree that the HKS turbos are better, but I'm just chucking these on as the budget option, until Jan, when I will sell the car.

    • I see you've never had to push start your own car... You could save some weight right now...
    • Sounds good.  I don't 100% understand what your getting at here. When you say, "I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down" do you mean this - there is a panel with factory paint, without any prep work, they paint the entire panel with primer, then colour then clear?  If that's what you mean, sure it will "stick" for a year, 2 years, maybe 3 years? Who knows. But at some stage it will flake off and when it does it's going to come off in huge chunks and look horrific.  Of course read your technical data sheet for your paint, but generally speaking, you can apply primer to a scuffed/prepped clear coat. Generally speaking, I wouldn't do this. I would scuff/prep the clear and then lay colour then clear. Adding the primer to these steps just adds cost and time. It will stick to the clear coat provided it has been appropriately scuffed/prepped first.  When you say, "but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat" I am imagining someone not masking up the car and just letting overspray go wherever it wants. Surely this isn't what you mean?  So I'll assume the following scenario - there is a small scratch. The person manages to somehow fill the scratch and now has a perfectly flat surface. They then spray colour and clear over this small masked off section of the car. Is this what you mean? If this is the case, yes the new paint will eventually flake off in X number of years time.  The easy solution is to scuff/prep all of the paint that hasn't been masked off in the repair area then lay the paint.  So you want to prep the surface, lay primer, then lay filler, then lay primer, then colour, then clear?  Life seems so much simpler if you prep, fill, primer, colour then clear.  There are very few reasons to go to bare metal. Chasing rust is a good example of why you'd go to bare metal.  A simple dent, there is no way in hell I'm going to bare metal for that repair. I've got enough on my plate without creating extra work for myself lol. 
    • Hi, Got the membership renewal email but haven't acted yet.  I need to change my address first. So if somebody can email me so I can change it that would be good.    
    • Bit of a similar question, apprently with epoxy primer you can just sand the panel to 240 grit then apply it and put body filler on top. So does that basically mean you almost never have to go to bare metal for simple dents?
