Look what came in the mail + need help

Hey guys, my turbo came in today can anyone guess what it is? Anyway, I am weeks away from having my car back on the road, and I have been searching the forums for " where to get the 5 hole turbo gasket" and I cant find anything. I am only finding the manifold to turbo(95 z) and the three hole downpipe gasket. I am looking for the 5 hole gasket thats between the turbo and J-pipe. I know there is one at heavy throttle but for 30 bucks they can stick it up there a-s-s. I also know I can buy sheets to make gaskets, but I want a direct replacement gasket. I was thinking maybe the late 80's 300z has the gasket but it might be 4 hole? Here are some pictures of the turbo and 5 hole stuff Im talking about. Your opinion is greatly appriciated, Voya.

5 hole gasket???

[nismo skyline]

ur probably gonna have to fabricate one, or have it made.

[TheSnail]

crap, I guess heavy thottle can take the gasket back out of thier a-s-s.

What's the spec on the turbo, where from, and how much?

[TheSnail]

Its the biggest of gt25 series turbos, Daul ball bearing to4, rated at 440hp with max of 500hp. For the specs type in " 705330-0002 "in google, that is the number on the side of the turbo.

That compressor inlet looks small...no way that is the largest

I cant find one bigger, or that supports more then 500hp while still having a t25 flange. If there is one bigger thats great this one is too big for my application anyway, but I got a good deal on it, so I bought it.

Now type in t25 5-bolt turbo gasket somewhere. Stop calling it 5-hole gasket.
Also, there is a limit to the size differences between the turbine and compressor. Some hybrid turbos are great, like a t3/4, but very small turbines with very large compressors add tons of lag, as well as bieng less efficient.

Ive typed in t25 5bolt in google I ve typed in about every combination of words for two hours . The compressor of my turbine is smaller then exhaust side, but thanks for your usefull facts.

You must think a gt25 means t25, like some sort of stock silvia turbo with a big a-s-s compressor or something, but it just the flange

Sorry, I thought it was a typo. Always forget about those HKS turbos.

Where did you get that turbo and for how much?

[TheSnail]

I lucked out on ebay, 620$ shipped brand new, the guy did not know what the flange size was and put the dimensions of the flange to the hundreths place. He bought it for a wrx but got sent the wrong one. I went out and mesured the manifold and it turns out it was a t25 hence the name gt25. I typed in the serial numbers and found out it was for a sr20 application, lucky me I thought. The best deal I saw it for that you can get is 1200 but it retails for 1750 so I guess thats good. People think I have money, I dont even have a job, ebay is a poor man best tool.

[jho]

how about you sell that turbo for me and make like 100 bucks profit?

[TheSnail]

Sorry man, knowing my cheap a-s-s, I dont think I could get myself to buy a turbo for a grand. But the key for ebay I discoverd for getting turbos for cheap on ebay is type in "turbine", alot of Japaneese call turbos turbines, but here in the states, a turbine is the internals of a turbo. Two weeks ago I bought a new skyline t28 from a guy in japan that listed it as a turbine, I won it for 86$! = 20 shipping! the day it arrived I posted it back on ebay, and then a week later it sold for 310$ since I labled it a turbo and made over 200$ profit for doing nothing. I thought I would let you on the secret since I already got my turbo. Just keep checking turbine auctions. I should keep my turbo, but if a month or so goes by and my car is still not on the road ill let you know since I do not have a job, I may need some desperate means of money to finish my car.
