hello all,

I have a bare HKS 2535 here that has been too long sitting on the floor... its time to put it on the ol' 25... soooo its my understanding that the stock manifold, inlet and dump will bolt up, however the oil and water lines and elbow will not... :)

so if we pull off the stock turbs and I take that and the 2535 into a <insert best store here> place that sells fittings we should be good to go... yeah? Gaskets aren't a problem as they are easy to get and so are silicon joiners... its just the oil + water lines I'm worried about... can anyone point me in the right direction?

and yes I should have just bought a highflow :P

ps if anyone has an old 2535 kit laying around I'll take the fittings lol

Personally i've found the guys from Enzed @ Tullamarine/Gladdy Park to be the most helpful and i've dealt with 3 on that list including them over the last 3-4 years. And i've always gone back to Enzed. :P

If you go down there with the turbo in hand, and get speedflow fittings and braided teflon lines to suit. You just need to know how long so they can make it up on the spot for to. I used a piece of string to get a rough length. Make sure you keep it as far away from the heat as you can. Even if its a bit longer.

A good shop will know the rest :)

the 2535 can fit on a rb25 using the stock lines.

the elbow thing also fits on without issues

I could be wrong but when i did my 2535 install i think the coolant feed and drain banjo bolts were a different size...best be sure to check first...cheers...

      I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps

      Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks

      small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛

      Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
