Hi I am going to have my Z engine rebuilt and am considering what turbos to have with it, the engine will have a full rebuld with forged pistons etc but I can get the following turbos at present and wonder if people think thay would be a good improvment or if I should go for a different set of turbos.

Im currently considering Skyline r33/34 tubs modified to fit ZX

.60Ar Compressor, Super 60 compressor wheel, .64 Ar turbine housing and T28 turbine wheel please let me know what you recommend if anything better than that. Im told that if I can get 5 bolt downpipes and rotate the intakes slightly then they will fit fine but if anyone has any better options please let me know, im not an expert on this kind of thing so your advice is valuable.

I dont know too much about this, but think the guys will need a little more info on what BHP your after and other mods your gonna be doing to give you a full answer.

looking for 400 plus bhp gonna have induction kit got SS decats, will get chip and boost controller plus getting ug breaks.

greddy td05-16g's OR jwt sport 530bb's mate!!

you can only run 14 psi, but the spool up will be quick, should flow enough for 420 bhp

personally, I would get a set that were meant for the 300zx, plenty of options depending on how much power you want. JWT Sport 500's all the way to td05-20G's.

 

As mentioned, the 530BB's are supposed to be very good.

Don't worry about ruuning them in. Once turbois fitted, you only maintanance to ten is regular oil change. Drive it like you stole it but don't brake anything :duffer:

2nd on turbos meant for 300zx, no unnecesssay modification and go for ball bearing turbos
