Hey just trying to identify what turbo i have. its a garrett bolted to the factory manifold. On the compressor it has a/r .60 and m10. On the turbine it has .86 t712 and pt11011279 stamped into it. On the metal tag it has either fd 0104j or ed 0104j not sure as there is a mark over the first letter. and also has on the tag 700177-17 here are some links to photos of it http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/j...1/P3040019.jpg (http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj285/mofomk1/P3040019.jpg) http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/j...1/P3040023.jpg (http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj285/mofomk1/P3040023.jpg) http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/j...1/P3040018.jpg (http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj285/mofomk1/P3040018.jpg) http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/j...1/P3040017.jpg (http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj285/mofomk1/P3040017.jpg) thanks

do GT30, 35/40 come with a 60AR front housing, i thought they only had 70s and 50s for the xr6 turbo, and they only come in 0.82ar and 1.06 AR rear housings. also i thought GT rear housings have a divider between the rear wheel and wastegate flap. and it doesnt look like a BB catridge, to me anyway correct me if im wrong

didnt think you could get t3-t4 adapter plates bolt on, i was under the impression that you would have to cut and weld on a new flange

nah u can get the on Ebay bolt on T3 to T4 but T3 is more popular to i would say its a T3 of some sort likes the same size as a RB20 Turbo the rear ar on them are .64 and there BB core oil and water cooled..but dosnet say nissan or anything on the front hmmm the exhaust flange should tell you what make it is....T3 or T4 so on i have a T04B here with a 1.00 rear ar and it has a T3 flange on it so im guessing its T3 maybe used on an RB20 or somthing.

bro it looks a bit big to be a t3, and if it is then why would it need a spacer to clear the manifold

Went and took it to a turbo shop today and with the numbers off the cartridge it comes up as a gt3076r but he says that they are different housings.

It may be a GT30 of some sort with mystery housings (Can’t really make out the turbine) Looks like a T04E compressor cover and T04S compressor wheel.
