Thanks for that mate.

Not a fan of NENGUN delivery time haha, but either way I'm not looking at paying for a brand new kit, just need the turbo it self if I was going to buy new.

2 x turbo's have popped up in the for sale section. A GARRETT GTRS as well as a HKS2540. I have heard the GT2540 is a fairly average turbo and doesn't perform to well on the RB motors, it doesn't seem to come recommended by many?

Does anyone have any infp/past experience on the GT2540?

GTRS I would like to get but I am pretty sure its of a T25 flange, would rather just get a a T3 flanged one.

Thanks,

Abu

i have the hks2530 on my fairly well sorted 32, cannot rate it highly enough. drives like the stock turbo untill the boost gets up then it just takes off.

shame ur not in brisbane i could take u for a spin

prob also worth mentioning its pretty progressive power delivery, like full throttle gear changes whilst cornering can be made as fast and aggressive as u like and it wont just light up and spend u sideways off the road

Oh I wish lol

When do you make full boost man? And how much power and boost you running?

Where did you pick your turbo up from?

Thanks,

They should be good for at least 240rwkw on the RB20. There's a guy on the forums that has made 270rwkw on an RB25.

The GTRS has to be some kind of evolution/step forward compared to the old HKS2530 & 2540. They wouldn't have stopped producing them otherwise..?

not really a step forward in terms of lag just more power

got a dyno sheet comparo from a Jap Drift mag with the gtrs and 2540 fitted to a R34 4 door

the 2540 has almost the same curve as the gtrs but gtrs made just under 390ps

compared to the 2540 made 360+ ps

the gtrs only pulled away in the very top end

i got the turbo from japan a few years ago. im running 1.17 bar or 17 psi i think to get 213 or 214 rwkw from the standard injectors. obviously its not very smart having it like but i dont care if my motor shits itself lol, its served me well for years

i got my hands on a pfc recently and as soon as i can ill grab some 550 or 600cc injectors and have it retuned for more boost and try and max the turbo out. im hoping to get 225-30rwkw but a big fat meh if i dont. i have gone cheap on the motor like this because i am in the position to be stupid, and only consider the rb20 as something to power my car untill my 2630 goes in.

however things take time if u want to do them right, so i think a set of injectors and retune is on the cars to tide me over a bit

as far as full boost goes id have to go drive the thing and actually look to tell u. its very decent tho, an excellent balance of stock responce and with the extra top end power u need. it holds 1.17 fairly well out to 6.5k-7k fairly well. i usually change at about 6500 sometimes i might rev it out more if im feeling ricey or get sloppy ;P

Thats awesome man.

I have been trying to find a HKS2530 for a while and not having much luck at that, and it was the same deal with the PFC, unless I wanted to spend $1,800 or something similar for the PFC.

Ended up going with a Wolf3d plug and play and am now trying to find a turbo.

Why don't you grab your self some R32 GTR injectors? Would only set you back about $250 - $350 for a good set and they can support up to about 300rwkw I think it is?

Thats what I was planning on getting until I heard about NISMO injectors..

NISMO 740cc is about $500 brand new now, probably best to spend a little bit more and grab those, I think thats what I will be doing now, but there a little over kill for an RB20 lol.

If your looking at selling that 2530 once you go 26/30 I would be keen, but depends how far down the track that is

Thanks for the info.

is ur front bar genuine?

I am pretty sure it is, but haven't had a chance to take a good look.

Came like that from Japan.

if it is genuine would u consider a swap for your front bar plus a little cash

would be interested in a few months if u arent in a hurry for the turbo

I have just fitted my HKS 2540 to my RB20DET that sits in my pig 180sx... I should have a dyno sheet for it sometime next week with a little feed back for you if you want...?
