Hi all,

I am selling my HKS GT2530 turbo off my R33 GTSt, complete with EVERYTHING you need to bolt it up (possibly bar one fitting, which might need to be made for a water feed)

I purchased the turbo alone nearly a year ago, and then separately purchased brand new parts to complete the bolt-on kit. These include a Genuine HKS stainless split dump (not cheap!) and high quality braided lines. Also a 1.2bar actuator (with adjustable rod) which was purchased new.

When purchased the turbo was as new condition with less than 5000kms on it, and i have since done only 10,000kms with it. The only reason for sale is the arrival of my new HKS 2835 kit.

so you get: turbo, dump, lines, 90 degree compressor outlet elbow, braided lines and fittings, all metal gaskets, wastegate actuator. Basically everything you need.

How good is this turbo?

The maximum figure i achieved was 227rwkw, made at 1bar. You can run very high boost through the midrange if you want, but on a 2.5litre the boost will drop off just at the top of the rev range. My best track time was a 12.5 at 115mph, with a slow 2.1 60foot, so you can see the potential with a good launch.

On an RB20 higher peak power figures may be obtained due the lesser exhaust gas allowing more than 1bar to be sustained over 6-6500rpm.

The torque increase makes a stock turbo feel truly weak, this kit is an awesome responsive upgrade, and makes for a very quick street car.

Price is $2100 and this is strictly firm.

***Please post questions related to this turbo/kit only please. I dont want to have to explain differences between this and a highflow, or other HKS models, or garret equivalents etc etc! so if you want to know, there are plenty of threads so please have a search.

cheers! Allan

hi dude, myself and the kit are in adelaide.

have had a fair bit of interest but each buyer is short of cash due to xmas! This is not a problem for me, the kit is here complete, who ever shows me the 2100 first its theirs.

i will send anywhere at buyers cost.

cheers guys.

the turbo is all cleaned up ready to go, shaft play is like brand new, gathered by comparing it to my brand new HKS unit. So many of these so called 'low km' turbos look crap and have dings and nicks in the compressor wheel inducer, this one is gorgeous, you will want to put it on the mantle piece, not in ur car :)

    • 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
    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
    • I agree once misfires happen it's basically worthless, but the hope is you can see what's happening in the run up to that. 
    • You should totally get a Brumby, and then come pick up the Subaru Liberty GTB I have here. EJ25 Turbo, 6 speed manual from the sti (just no dccd), and the good rear diff. Drop all that into a Brumby and go have fun!
