The G5 Turbo Kit by CZP / ZERO is designed to be the ultimate street turbo for the Nissan 300ZX! In essence, the G5 turbos start out in life as brand new genuine Garrett GT2554R turbochargers. The compressor wheels are replaced by Turbos Direct, one of the very few authorized Garrett Performance distributors in the US, with a new billet aluminum compressor wheel. Optionally, we also ceramic coat the compressor housing to help with intake air temperature, as the compressor housing sits extremely close to the exhaust manifold on the 300ZX.

The billet compressor wheel is based on the design of the traditional GT2554R wheel, but with several key improvements. First, billet construction is stronger than cast, allowing the center root of the wheel to shrink in diameter, and the root is made taller. The tips of the blades also extend further into the compressor housing, and the billet construction is ever-so-slightly lighter than the cast version. These changes result in a compressor wheel that moves more air (roughly 15%, according to Turbos Direct) as a cast equivalent, without sacrificing response/spool time.

Because this turbo is based on the well-known GT2554R, and only improves on the design, we believe this to be the ideal turbocharger setup for those wishing to produce roughly 550hp (depending on fuel, tuning, and other mods) while maintaining exceptional spool-up response. And because these are still Garrett turbos, we know they're just as reliable as stock turbos.

Disclaimers/Requirements:

• Requires 5-bolt Downpipes
• LH Motor Mount Support may need to be machined for intake piping to clear (this is true of almost all upgraded turbos)
• Depending on Manifold or Piping setup, minor clocking might be required
• Stock intake piping may require use of paper gasket instead of included O-ring.

• These are brand new, genuine units direct from our authorized Garrett distributor and builder. They are not rebuilds or substituted with any other brand.
• Garrett's warranty is a 90-day period against manufacturing defects, and accepted on a "per inspection basis." It is extremely rare for new CHRAs or turbos to be faulty or defective from the factory. If failure is suspected, they will need to be sent in at the customer's expense, and they will be torn down and inspected by Turbos Direct. Garrett's warranty does not cover shipping charges in either direction.
• If following a fresh engine rebuild, which includes new turbos, smoky or oily exhaust is almost always a result of a bad rebuild and not faulty turbochargers.
• Installation errors, abuse, mishandling, or failure from external factors (foreign object damage, oil-fuel contamination, oil starvation, overheating, etc) are not manufacturing defects. Nearly all premature failures are caused by an external factors such as these, and are not covered under warranty.
• In the event that you experience a failure, and the cause is determined not to be a manufacturing defect, you will be responsible for re-assembly and return shipping.
