turbo install

[leroiboy]

i have an s15 turbo. i am just now trying to install it on my s13 sr20det. i have the stock exhaust manifold and the inlet will not clear it for me to bolt it on. anyone have any info on this? how do i post pictures because i can do that so everyone can see exactly what i am working with(i read the faz section but its not working for me). thanks

maybe you need to re-clock the compressor? give as a pick and that will help.

by that do you mean just unbolt it and put it in a different position? im trying to figure out how to post pics and i read through the faq section to do it, but no luck. i will email them to you tho. thanks

that is not an s15 turbo. thats the turbo off of a z32, r32, or some other nissan. i will throw the pictures up on my photobucket to post them here. someone else might be able to identify the turbo.

like i was saying, you might be able to clock it to work. to do that, you undo the 6 bolts connecting the compressor housing to the center section and it should then spin freely. rotate it so that the outlet and wastegate arm is in the orientation that you want and tighten everything back down.

you also might want to get a different wastegate/wastegate bracket as that on is awfully in the way.

ok, please let me know if someone can tell what its from. i thought the guy i got it from said it was an s15, however i now recall that he did say he was using it on his skyline. hope that helps some. thanks man

if it's a z32 or r32 turbo then it is smaller than the stock s13 T25, I've already been down that road.
