Hks 2530's ,hks Dumps,front Pipe,stock Manifolds

So you think $1000 for a HKS 2530 is dear..........

Well i dont wish to rain on your parade...

Considering that you can buy brand new GTSS turbos with all gaskets etc as a kit for 2800 off nengun.com and a 2530 turbo kit for the same price (without actuators), with all gaskets same case etc delivered, some people might not think its worth the gamble on paying 2k for used turbos and then spending another 300 bucks on gaskets.. levelling it to $2300.

The pain with nengun.com being the 1-2month wait.

I think your price is reasonable, personally id be willing to pay $1500 for the 2 and maybe 2k as a MAX for a used set. Its prob hard to compete on the forums when a few other guys are selling new rebuilt ones for your asking price (highflowed and nismo ones).

Then again its of opinion.

[m&m]

I have posted up a dyno sheet of 371rwkw with my 2530's, I have yet to see GTSS's come close to that, I dont think you can compare those 2. Pretty sure Dirt Garage ran a very low 10 with 2530's, and I know that Mine's prefers them.

Last week I drove an R33 GTR of a freinds who runs GTSS's, it makes 250rwkw, my S15 was quicker, but thanks for the input anyway.

Like I said I have just got an R34 GTR, I would rather fit them to that than sell them for less than they are worth. Your correct about second hand, but you can always check with Nigel (Racingline) to clarify the condition.

The reason I am, holding back on fitting them to the 34 is past experience, I just know I'm going to fit a T88H-38GK to it one day, I dont want to pay labour costs twice like I have before, but its an option.

cheers

Ahh..k, well I just made 264RW KW on friday on my gtr with stock dumps, stock turbos and the rest of a hks exhaust (front pipe, highflow cat + catback @ 3.5inch) @ 14psi.

Dno whats happenin with your mates gtr...

I believe the GTSS's will definately get you over 300 rear wheel kw.

Obviously they wont reach 2530 standards of power being 30hp or so less in flow per turbo (going by garretts specifications) but theyll prob cop 50kw less with more response. Depends what you want at the end of the day.

Anyway having previously owned a doneup s13, i dont think the GTR will ever feel as fast as the feel of a silvia based car or similiar. You just know your gtr is faster when you passively munch people off the line lol.

- But back to the topic, someone buy this guys turbos lol. - free bump.

Ok a noob question.

Are the 2530s the older version of the GTRS?

Yeah your mate's GTR with the GTSS making 250rwkw is definitely having some issues. Unless he is running on like 7psi or something. My gtr makes 265rwkw on stock turbos already.

HKS 2540's are the older versions of GTRS's

Sloutch, there's dyno sheets, then there's dyno sheets. I have a Dyno sheet from a well respected tuner on this forum that shows my GTR making 378rwkw with 2530's, standard pump, standard airflow meters, 660cc inj, standard cams, on Shootout mode.

He then switched to his regular set up which gave an accurate figure of 331rwkw, runs done 5 minutes apart.

When the car was dynoed at Ice Performance, it registered 280rwkw, although the boost controller was off. After cams, Z32 AFM, Tomei fuel pump the car made 358rwkw, with further tuning it got to 371rwkw.

I wouldnt be surprised if it made 400+rwkw in Shootout mode.

I will not post the first 2 dyno sheets up because this guy is so well respected on here I would get shot down by everyone.

So Sloutch, is your dyno sheet in Shoot out mode ???? Who's dyno ?

i'm not doubting your turbos can make 378rwkw.

i was just wondering howcome your mate's GTR with GTSS turbos only makes 250rwkw as quoted from you, that's all. So were you trying to say that people spend about $3,000 to buy and install a pair of GTSS to make less power than stock turbos?

I dynoed mine at Chasers with 14psi on 265rwkw. Anyway, good luck with the sale. These 2530s are good turbos for people who wants good response.
