Default Nissan Turbo help needed

Just bought a Nissan 300zx T3 turbo off ebay and it doesn't have the internal wastegate acuator.

Anyone know where i can get one? or can i use a universal wastegate?

thanks

You'll be wanting to find a stock wastegate actuator then.

Also, if you take the o2 housing off, you can inspect the wastegate flapper are and check its condition, along with the exhaust wheel. You'll either be making a downpipe off the o2 housing, or off the exhaust side of the turbo... so o2 on or off.

So I can't use the Turbonetics wastegate? if I have to get a stock one where would be the best place to get one. Can I order one off of a nissan parts site?

You could use the turbonetics... but you'll need a manifold that supports an external wastegate... and welding the internal one shut.

You might be able to get it from a nissan dealership... i'd suggest ebay or junkyards though.. maybe even http://www.homemadeturbo.com. you currently have "half" the wastegate... the flapper/exhaust release and you are missing the actuator and rod that is with it.

I had two different styles of wastegates off that same turbo as well, I had the exact one pictured and a smaller nissan one that will clear better in a honda. They both use a proprietary nissan 5 bolt flange unlike any other t3 so you need one of these two. If you are interested i can see if I still have them, they may have been thrown away.

ATPturbo.com may have what you need. You can also check your local Nissan dealer to see how many bones they want for the dashpot.

Getting a HKS Actuator for a stock S13 or S14 SR20 turbo might work in your case.

Considering it should be the same T25 turbo
