hmm could it maybe be some hardcore tubro coking..?

My bro bought the 300zx engine... but he dosnt own a fair lady.. WTF? (but its his dream car too.)
The turbos are severly coked so he decided to give me the turbos... I want to turbo a gs300 but i need to know if those turbo's are in good shape... or how to recondition them.
I've seen how clean they look in the pics on HMT and thats what i want under the hood. A CLEAN SNAIL.

Any way i can get OEM B.O.V. to open @ 5-6 psi ?

the engine,trans,ecu,acces. came off of a 1990 zx.

squirt some oil into the turbo (small threaded hole on the center section)...see if it spins more freely

they are too small for a gs. you were gonna use them both right? Your getting yourself into a hassle... as everyone else says, its totally not worth it. buy a big single turbo and be done with it, and sell the t28's (thats what they are right?)

Re: 300zx t-3 turbo rebuild?
 

i agree unless your car came with sync turbs then i wouldn't go through the hassel of routing two of them. go out sell your 2 T28 and buy yourself one big ass turbo and do it right.

im not guna sit here and stunt like i know...
How can i tell if its a T25 or a T28 ? or a T25/28?

Also about how much does a decently use turbo go for ?
