ok my questions are these..

1.will a 6 bolt crank from a 4g63 non turbo fit in a 6 bolt 4g63 turbo?

2. are they the same exact material?

3.and are the measurements the same?

and here are my options should i cut my crank to .010 over maybe blueprint it and use it on my car or should i buy a non turbo crank for 30 bucks in a u pull it and just polish it
 
OEM 6-bolt cranks are the same in every aspect, same measurements, material, and completely interchangeable.

I would go for the junkyard crankshaft as it is much more affordable, but it may not be the best choice depending on what your goals are for the car.
 
my plans are not passing 400whp maybe just 350whp not something so big, just as a dd, dependable and fun thats all but thank for the info

one more question can you use a NA block and just put the the piston and rods from a turbo to the na block and use in a gst or gsx?
 
Main problem is no oil squirters in the N/A block but if your running forged pistons they say you dont need them.

Yeah just need a knock sensor and it won't have oil squirters. Not sure if there are provisions for a NT block for the knock sensor but if not a machine shop can tap the block for you. You're going to want turbo pistons as the rods are also the same. I'd go with 2g pistons for your setup as well. I've heard the ITM 2g pistons perform very well. Not sure if anything else is different.
 
Hey Tony, Yes the 4G63t and n/t crankshafts are exactly the same and you can use the non/turbo block as others have mentioned. The n/t block won't have squirters but thats not a big deal. Also the n/t block should already be tapped for the knock sensor.
