Fitting a hks 2530

[tang0]

All

Am thinking of purchasing a hks 2530, and just have a few questions about fitting it ...

its going on to my S2 GTS-T, already have 3" downpipe to suit standard turbo ..

question is how easily does it fit ?

what extra parts do i need ?

I know that water and oil lines will need extending ... but is this as simple as purchasing longer pipes ?

is the exhaust housing the same stud pattern ?

what about where the manifold bolt up ? will i need to get a T25 - T3 adapter ?

anyone done this swap got any hints or tips ???

cheers

There are 2 types of 2530, the GTR type and the GTST type, if you get a GTST type it fits the standard exhaust manifold. Both types of 2530's use the standard Nissan 5 bolt dump pipe flange. You will need new gaskets and o'rings. Your local turbo shop should have the necessary water and oil pipes. The standard compressor inlet fits straight on, but the compressor outlet doesn't, I used a right angle silicone bend.

Hope that helps:cheers:

indeed it does ... thanks once again SK

If it is the gtr type, i assume there are companies that make adapter plates ?

thanks

Personally I wouldn't put a GTR type 2530 on an RB20/25. I would buy the right one.

Ive got a 2530 coming as well with the the T3 flange. Youll notice with the GTR types, they have 2 studs coming off the inlet compressor.

Hopefully it will be fitted in about 2 weeks.

so apart from the inlet side, what is the difference between gtr and gts-t type 2530 ?

just the gtr type one i saw is fairly cheap ...

I thought there were three types of HKS 2530 for nissans? Maybe you can confirm for me SK. I thought there was the T25 flanged SR20 type HKS 2530, then the T3 flange RB20/25 type HKS 2530 (both the same appart from the flange and compressor outlet bolt pattern) and then the T25 flanged RB26 type HKS 2530 (with the smaller turbine housings). Is this right?
