All non-intercooled i.e. Gazelle & Skyline FJ20ET's from the factory got a .63 T3 turbo. The R30 Skyline R-SX with intercooler (lunchbox) was the only FJ engine to get the .48 Turbo, it also had an 8:1 CR where the others had 7.5:1. I've also seen non-intercooled FJ's with a .48 turbo, but by the time the engine got to SSS who knows what it's been thru.

I've seen both the .48 and .63 on the s12 fj20et's but i dont know if they were original or not.I think someone said a couple of weeks ago that they only came in a .63 on these so i'm confused.The .63 has a bit more top end performance and is the better one to modify.They both have plain bearings.
