$2400 seems like a lot for a hiflow rebuild when you can get a brand newy for less.

but do these bolt on without having to redo water and oil lines?

They aint that expensive if you buy direct from japan.

U can get the new hks 2835 pro s internal gated with the T3 flange for $3100 from japan. I been trying to get ifo if it will fit in the stock location even tho its the T3 flange coz of the size of the housing on it. I just got the quote a few days ago from greenline.

How do you go about ordering a HKS turbo directly from Japan?

Those r easy to get new not easy to find secondhand

I got my pfc from nengun and getting my profec b spec II (1 of the first in aus) from greenline.

And Hikari was formed by a bunch of guys from perth and is a sponsor of Performance Forums.

I'm using a GCG T3/4 turbo at the moment.

By all accounts, on an RB25 with the right management and other bolt ons you should be able to make 250rwkw. You may find that you'll be maxing out a few of the components such as the AFM and the injectors but that's just part of the game when you push the power up I guess.

Unfortunately, this turbo on an RB20 is a problem and I've got a surging problem now. But on the RB20, with bolt ons and chip it makes 200rwkw at 1.1bar. I really do think that the housings are a bit on the small side when looking at it from a performance aspect but that's only an opinion.

I'm growing more towards a HKS GT25/30 every day but upart from the cost of the turbo itself, I'm concerned about what else has to be done to fit it to an RB20 and how much it'll all cost. I can't get an honest and straight answer anywhere.

Joel, would that be JMS? Terry is en route to Japan and promises to bring back HKS 2530's and 2535's plus bigger stuff! :D

Its the southern 'Performance Center' ;)

I couldn't really hear properly as another car was being dyno'd I also heard something about a bolt on TO4 but I am most probably wrong.

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
