It was either keir wilson or some other regular drag racer that compared twin 2540's on a rb26 and it was laggy as hell compared to a the twin 2530 setup. As for my GT30 against the 2540 my GT30 is just getting into its efficiency zone while the 2540 will be running out of puff in singlle forum. But whatever floats ur boat, and for $1600 yes its a good buy!!

LOL...forget twins on a 2.6L, its a single in a 2.5L:)

As for effeciency range, i agree, but at the end of the day you only run with the power you think you can safely handle with a std engine. Most ppl agree its around 250rwkws if you are ringing its neck at the track, up to 300rwkws for a street driven car.

So two cars with std internals, both making around 250rwkws, you can make more, sure, but ...

this is interesting, i have heard nothing but bad reports about the 2540 and all reports hint towards the lag factor for a turbo that is only a mild bolt on being too much. But then again there are ways to improve response. I think it does come down to personal preferances at the end of the day. One may chose a hks item and one may chose a trust, may have identical setups but the driving characteristics that each individual wants are different hence the difference in choice of turbocharger/setup.

The 2535,30 hks turbos rock all over the 2540hks as a street turbo.Buty im with you guys if you like it and it is at the right price buy it for sure.

As shown on these dynos results by hks HKS Dyno Graphs

Hks 2540

Power (PS)(2=squared)=340

BB?=yes

Trim=46

Comp Inducer (mm)=51.7

Comp Exducer (mm)=76.2

Trim=76

Turbine Inducer (mm)=53.8

Turbine Exducer (mm)=47

Housing A/R8=0.64

I put my car on the dyno last night. This is the result i got with the 2540 installed 209.5kW at the rear.

The car has 3" exhuast from turbo back, front mount, stock ecu and 12psi of boost.

Planning to get fuel pump, injectors and tune pfc later.

Hey dvs80r throw this one in the ''RB25 turbo ugrade, ALL DYNO RESULTS'' thread.The more the merrier (Merry,merry'er,merrier cant spell).

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
