hey all, after purchasing this turbo ...http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=43594 i have reconsidered and it is up for sale again,

i got it for an absolute bargain and i am willing to let it go for what i got it for

$1200

this is a genuine HKS 2540 i have had it checked myself by unique autosports and they have confirmed its in pristine condition.

WILL NOT BOLT DIRECTLY ONTO RB25 without custom work regardless of what the other post says, but thats not the reason i'm selling it. my current turbo i have since figured out is actually bigger than this one.

in NSW but willing to ship at buyers expense

Wat kind of custom work to the manifold r we talking bout?? And how much??

dont know how much exactly matey, depends who you take it to and how much they know i guess.

who checked it out for you?

how many KM's on it?

I'm interested

both john and pete ( i think his name is, his dyno tuner) checked it and gave it the thumbs up.

as in the original thread KMs are unknown unfortunately... but cant be too high i'd guess considering the condition

there seems to be a lot of interest in this.

but as i said this will NOT bolt on easily at all, if you have a good metal worker who can rig up a flange or whatever then cool, but i dont want to be thought of as somebody who will rip people off, especially loyal SAU goers.

if whoever gets it finds out that they dont want to go ahead with it they could always sell it off as a sr20 turbo (probably for a tidy profit too) as thats what i believe it actually is so i guess i'm worried over nothing, I just dont want my good forum reputation ( i hope :( ) to suffer

try finding someone as honest as me elsewhere huh ;)

yeah tony, tried that first but it wouldnt let me post in the for sale section (i think a post count sorta deal) but i'm happier to let it go to someone on here if it comes down to it, look after our own ya know :(

what about this adaptor plate?

http://www.horsepowerinabox.com/HPIAB2/prod39.htm

Is this all thats needed to make this turbo fit a rb25? Then the oil/water lines need to be made up and thats it?

MJ possibly mate, looks about right but i'm not 100%

    • I chose a bad time to buy, at the time there was no gtst's for sale in NSW and my options were qld, vic, or sa and not the greatest examples or too far out of my budget. Ended up picking this one from adelaide sight unseen and got a bit stitched up as you could expect but i dont fully regret it, its just a shame people cant be more transparent in this day and age.
    • IMO just buy a whole R33 transmission and swap the whole thing. Use a palm nailer/air hammer with a roll pin punch to drive the shifter rod end roll pins out. The rod end is discontinued so don't break it. Use gasket dressing on the OEM paper gasket instead of RTV. I personally would not pry on the shifter cover tabs, I broke one trying that instead of just smacking the side with a dead blow rubber mallet to shock it loose from the RTV the last mechanic applied. If you can't get the flanges totally clean and free of any residual RTV and/or you might have a gap that is bigger than it should due to flange damage use RTV on that surface instead of the OEM specced anaerobic sealer. Anaerobic sealer is most likely the right sealant for the job, it's just too easy to mess it up with too large a gap or bad surface prep/roughness seemingly. If you do rebuild what you have it's for a whole gearset that can take high torque. Don't bother with OEM at that point.
    • Little hose. Big hose. They're all waiting to kill the engine.
    • Nice ride, hard to find these days!
    • Full e85 barrell stuff real world for reference if it helps as Ive pushed 2 x sets injectors to limit Above mentioned Bosch 1480cc run on 4 bar base to the apparent 1650cc on rb2.7 yielded 912hp / 684  kw  at 92% duty on hub dyno ID1700's - RB 2.8 ...1015hp / 760 kw at 87% duty - hubber dyno + shown off data on track my opinion IF you change injectors just go bigger than you think you need the modern/ good larger ones run just fine if tuned properly even if way bigger than required even on streeters
