Message When it comes to upgrading turbos on your Z32 there are a few options out there. You could buy off the shelf turbos and compile a kit of your own, fabricating parts as you go, which usually turns out to be time consuming and expensive. You could adapt an existing kit from another vehicle, which can be as time consuming as creating your own kit. Or you could purchase one of the several kits available on the market, none being as complete and inexpensive as Z1 Turbo Kits.

Unfortunately purchasing off the shelf turbos and fabricating a kit is very attractive to many due to the low initial cost of individual turbos (compared to kits). Once the process gets started it is soon obvious that there is entirely too much time involved in sourcing the parts, cutting, welding, and machining the parts necessary to complete the fabrication. The same goes with adapting an existing kit intended for another vehicle.

Purchasing a kit then becomes an appealing option, but the low cost of some are misleading. Honestly, not all kits include parts needed for installation such as gaskets, oil feed lines, oil return lines, and other miscellaneous hardware that are required to complete the upgrade.

Z1 Motorsports has created the only real solution, producing a complete line of Z32 Turbo Kits fitted specifically to the VG30DETT. Z1 has engineered superior wastegate actuator brackets and compressor housing adapters for excellent fitment. Not only have we created the best fitting turbos themselves, we include all necessary gaskets, bolts, washers, oil feed lines, oil return lines and more. The inclusion of these parts relieves the stress of "What else will I need?" Of course there are other items related to the task of upgrading turbos due to the removal of the engine but all aspects of the turbo upgrade itself were considered when we developed our turbo kits.

In fact, every Ball Bearing Turbo Kit that Z1 produces for the Z32 is mounted to a VG30DETT engine to ensure proper fitment before leaving our facility. In addition to being mounted to an engine for inspection all turbos are paired during assembly. After being paired as a set, they are then configured with proper techniques to maintain equal boost characteristics.

With the turbos themselves built and configured, its time to assemble the installation kit. All Z1 Ball Bearing Turbo Kits include the following:
