ok guys, i am nearing my end on trying to find someone to help thats not gonna cost me $1000.

i am in a unique predicament as i am from the United States and as such not many people know or have any knowledge of the kind Japanese Turbos and HKS hardware that is avaliable outside of the US.

you guys are my only hope. thanks in advance for any help that you may be able to provide.

setup: HKS GT2530 from R33 GT-R

T-25 5 bolt internal wastegate (HKS upgrade)

Garrett based design

Compressor: 63 trim- 47.7 inducer / 60.1 major

Turbine: 76 trim - 53.8 major / 47.0 major

now the problem

no idea what it ingested.

oil galleries are clear, water passages are clear, no damage to either housings. only damage is to the compressor.

HKS sez they dont sell this part seperate, and want to ship it to japan from an authorised dealership (closest is 8 hours away) and $900usd for a new center cartrige.

Garrett sez, yes its there design but they dont do replacements either. closest garrett has is the GT2860 (#707160-5) which is as follows:

Compressor: 62 trim- 47.2 inducer / 60.1 major

Turbine : same as HKS

i do have a serial # that was printed on the back of the HKS compressor that i will try and find again and post

ANYBODY know anything or anybody to help?

i have looked across the Skyline / Silvia forums and cannot find any topics on this.

Anybody have or know of a thrashed one of these? i just want the Compressor, the rest of the turbo is fine.

i have the ability to get everything balanced here in the states, just need the part.

once again, thanks in advance

    • I would hope so. I worry that it also might depend on whether the person working on the claim has had a good day or not. I could imagine that for example modified brakes would be an easy thing to point to for affecting the outcome of an accident. I don't know. I will keep paying my premium and hope for the best. But at the same time keep safe distances, drive defensively and avoid dickhead P-platers in lifted utes  
    • I was just working on the assumption that a cammed V8 is significantly less polluty than a Japanese I6 turbo was at the way they tested it in an IM240. Perhaps I'm wrong! Perhaps cutting one of the readings I got in half is a tall order. I don't know too many people who actually got their cars emission tested with a RB to really compare the data.
    • I thought it was just if “the modification effected/caused the incident”
    • Ok, good to know. I have open loop I think, I forgot which ones which but I am running the o2 sensor, brand new and I got a new boost solenoid because my last one was faulty and overboosting by a lot, but it's still technically overboosting. Haven't really bothered to hunt it down as I don't send it hard regularly.
    • You should not be able to see much smoke behind you if the mixtures are good - for ~13-14 psi anyway. It's not like you need to be running hell rich for only that much boost/load. Your tune might be a tad too rich. The tuner might have done that because they like to run a lot of timing. It's impossible to know what's going on from here. It won't be the actuator. It won't be the MAP sensor. Regardless of if by "MAP sensor" you mean either the Neo ECU's boost sensor (which is literally only that, a boost sensor so that the ECU knows a) that it's achieving boost, and b) that it is not overboosting) or you mean the dash gauge's MAP sensor (because it can't have any effect at all), or you mean the boost controller's MAP sensor (because it is very unlikely that it is running in closed loop, and so it is effectively just used to know when the pressure goes positive and so you can see the boost on the display, for the most part).
