hi all,
does anybody know offhand the exact specs of the turbo fitted to our south african 200sx? (compressor inducer/exducer/a.r , turbine inducer/exducer/a.r )
cant seem to find on the net precise specs for our turbos.. and its been a long time since ive owned a ca18det..

all i would have to go by is what is published online about the euro spec motor, and that would take some serious digging in my old archives!!!
have you searched the net, this forum, and asked places like turbo exchange???

searched the net.. you will be amazed at how many combinations and revisions of turbo's was fitted to the ca18..
this forum.. no go, doesnt seem anybody has ever posted this..
turbo exhange ect. ? are you kidding?

last time i went to them looking for spares for my 320d's turbo, they did not even know what a vnt turbo is, nevermind the specs..
which was why i kinda hoped someone had recently actually measured up their stock turbo..

Well my car must be rocking a very good combination cause it's putting down 160kw atf on just a 3" pipe and a cone filter. Ran a 15.1 at an unprepared track on street tyres at normal tyre pressures etc.
Anyways, off topic.
All I know is it's a T25, so I'm subscribing to this thread. Need to start learning how to interpret turbo specs too...
