will this turbo work?

himilefrontier · Oct 7th, 2003, 08:14 PM

I was slumming throught the junkyard today and came accross a 1991 1g DSM with a 4g63t in it and was wondering if this turbo can be made to work in a 1995 GA16DE Sentra?Does anybody make a manifold with the same flange as this turbo for my engine?Thanks.

there was SO a thread about this recently...but i cant find it...i guess ill keep looking, let me know if you find it first

but basically i think its a matter of getting a manifold for the ga with the same turbo flange as the dsm turbo

Yeah, I think I remember reading it at one point, but can't remember the subject line.The thing is, I can get this turbo for like $50 and it is in beautiful condition.No shaft play and spins freely.The car is also in a good state of maintenance with clean crankcase and showed signs of good maintenance.

I think some welding and cutting needs to be done for it to fit the GA manifold IIRC.... For fifty bucks, what the hey just go ahead and buy the thing... It might be worth it and possibly offset the cost of getting on the manifold. If it doesnt work you could always sell it off on dsmtrader, ebay, etc.

just buy the thing, you can always try to use it for a core charge!

Buy the 4G63, too, while you're at it...

Might as well just make a custom manifold.

I know this is a little different (1st gen vs. 2nd gen turbo), but same principles.

Allow myself to reference......myself.

IIRC, it was a TD05, but it had 2 bolts from the bottom , 2 from the top.

No, that's correct, a 14B uses the TD05 Housing. You'll still need a custom mani whether you like it or not. Pretty good turbo though, good up to 19 psi
