Hi All,

I have a pair of HKS 2530s for sale. They've been on my car since approximately 2005. They are pretty stuffed. It appears the previous owner of my car neglected to change the air filters the whole time he had it. They still work, one is pretty noisy on shut off, the other is okay but you'd have to rebuild them of course. I'll get some pics up when I have access to my facebook tonight.

The thing is I have no idea what they are worth, so I can't post them in the for sale section... So I guess offers? And any advice on what they are worth would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Matt

Just FYI I think you should be able to get somewhere from 2000-2500 for them depending on age/condition. I recently bought a single one for an RB20/25 for $1600 but it was very new and in pretty much new condition. If I ever had an RB26 they would be the first turbo I go for, awesome response and peak power.

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
