well assuming its on an RB20det right now and will bolt straight on...

you will need to block the water feed (comes from inlet side around the back of the head via metal tubing) and water return in the block.

Once that is done a tune would be very wise!

Then once that is done you will notice a big grin on your face :P R32's are MUCH lighter than my car ;) And with the power i got my car gets up and boogies all over the road on boost... well used to, brand new 255's have calmed that a fair bit.

But cuz i bought my turbo from a guy who already had it on an R32 RB20, all i did was unbolt my stocker, plug up the water lines, bolt new turbo on, then drove around with the old tune for 2-3 weeks before i got it tuned.

i did get the dump pipe modified to suit my car etc. Which you will need a custom dump pipe by the sounds of it

Pred, the rb20 turbo is classed as a non good turbo.

lol :P maybe, but then again they were designed to be cheap to make and give 165kw or whatever the stock R32 power output is ;) So they do that. Just like the stockie RB25 turbo isn't great either..

wish i had the funds for an 2530 myself. Probably what i would go for -- not after big dyno figures.

Skyrine-Dave : watchout.. might chew up that phone...mmm.. RB30 + big ass turbos :)

Predator: It can chew that fone.. well try! its lasted many drunken nites in town... read: Dropped all over the place :P good old 3210 reliability :)

I did want a 2530, but being a tight ass uni student didnt really allow for it. I previously had a hi-flowed R32 turbo and that sucked so much ass its not funny. Sure the car was powerful... compared to my old V8 Fairlane 500 (god bless it ;))... but it sucked none the less.

As i see it. The 2530 sounds like a very nice turbo for an Rb20, but not having been in a car with one on it... i cannot comment. Tho i've seen some Rb25 owners not happy with 2530's due to their extra capacity.

yeah.. heard that - HKS 2530 will only give 230rwkw or so on an RB25DET. Apparently though its meant to spin up quicker than the stocker and give you a bootfull of midrange which sounds nice. Keeps the engine nice and safe anyhow.

anyhow, i'm off..later all.

Dave - so running it on the stock engine and stock cooler would be fine? at 7 psi?

whats the lag like .. doesnt get on boost to 5 grand or something?

is turbo lag a good or a bad thing?

oh man! stock cooler... i wouldnt bother. With my hi-flow i had so many over heating issues with my stock cooler!!!

FMIC at the same time or before... or ASAP once you install it. makes a huge difference... i went from 47deg inlet temps to 25deg inlet temps!

Turbo lag... hmm u can drive around casual just makin spool noise but not coming on boost, just goin all casual and quiet around the streets... but mash ya foot to the floor... 4000rpm and all hell breaks loose...

i like the lag so i dont have to drive on boost all the time. as the car is daily driven.

Personal preference really. The only time i kick myself is when i'm in the wrong gear and have 2000rpm before decent boost kicks in when having a "roll on"... problem solvered by dropping it back a gear... or 2 and away you go.

OK here's the deal the $5 do not have plastic covers and have really been used and show it, all the pages are in and not looking at falling out, but you can tell they've been heavily used. The $10 are from here in the office and are perfect other than the plastic is faded.

These are also for sale to anyone inside the company so dont know how much longer they will be there for, but we did have about 30 to start with so guess whoever wanted one has one by now, but yeah dont know how much longer I'll be able to get them for.

    • Are these a plug and play setup, and do they need a tune, like a haltech ecu etc? Thanks
    • Nice work on the paint. Those 3 studs are long as. 
    • Hi everyone, still chasing a bunch of this stuff. Thanks
    • Been over 2 months since I have done anything on the S15 and had a day off today so got stuck into mounting the radiator and intercooler. I ended up using factory bottom mounts as bolted in and I did order some gktech top brackets but didn't work with the PWR radiator so made up some with aluminium flat bar. Spent way to long on them but pretty happy how they are. Next job was the intercooler. Used some more aluminium flat bar and did the bottom mounts first. Top was easy as just one long piece and 2 90 degree coming off rad support and welded them on. The bumper support required some notching to let the outlets sit where I want so will add some reinforcement later to strengthen it. I have also bought ecu and waiting for it to arrive. Went with a Link g4x Xtreme but will be adding a ptmotorsport expander to add a few extra inputs over CAN. Went through a few different configurations on pclink to get what I want to allow future expansion for sensors and gearbox upgrades. Ordered gktech rear arms but looking at the hardrace lower control arms to have some extra adjustment too will see how the alignment looks after first setup. Got 2 more weeks of work before shut down and will have almost 4 weeks to work on this so planning on hopefully firing up mid January.   Also bought a 2015 brz with a heap of good gear, did noosa hill climb a month back. Owned it for 3 days changed alignment and sent it. Finished the weekend 2nd in class and only .3 off the 180sx best time last year. MCA Red coilovers, gktech rear lca, bolt on lock kit and tie rods, whiteline toe arms, cusco 1.5way diff and 4.5 ratio, endless brake pads, headers, exhaust, perrin intake and e85 tune. Electronic steering adjustment, nankang crs with koya wheels 17x9 +35. Have bought rear traction arm and relocation kit, extended studs and v3 tie rod kit. Planning on also getting flex tune as lucky to get 300km a tank with e85 and short ratio. Car is a heap of fun to drive and super easy to work on. AC in the line up at Noosa was mint in 35degree weather.
