I have a turbo off a rb25det neo from an r33 skyline gts. I took it apart and i'm glad i did now, because i found one of the blades on the exhaust wheel is missing a sizable chunk. The turbo is a t3/t28 from everything read, with ceramic wheels. So i've heard there's upgraded wheels available for this turbo but the only thing i can seem to find is the $800 raw brokerage turbo. I have literally everything to make this turbo work on my ka-t so i really don't want to have to change it. Even if there's a stock replacement wheel for it i'll take that. I just need it fixed. So if anyone knows anything please help me out. Thanks.
I was also thinking since it's a t3 rear housing can i just get a t3 turbine wheel? That would be easy.

no no and no. and there is no such thing as an r33 rb25det neo. just buy another r25 turbo for 150 bucks and be done with it

It's an rb25 neo in an r33 i worded it wrong sorry. But yea i got a manifold, t25, and down pipe for just obnoxiously cheap so i'm going with that for now. Brand new garrett turbo, can't beat it.
To the trash with the rb turbo!

Any turbo with missing chunks should be scrapped... or rebuild with new internals, which likely won't save you any money over getting a good used one with better specs

Yea i'm gonna pull the compressor wheel and housing off and sell or trash the rest.

I just picked up a manifold, downpipe, water and oil lines, and a gt2871r today. Wooo turbo time!

RB25DET R33 series 3 was a neo motor... just saying but very unlikely to find they were the end of production cars when nissan was prepping for the R34
