you don't find any RB25's with 2510's cause they are about the size of the stock turbo that comes with the rb25.

why would you spend so many dollars to get no power increase or maybe 10 rwkw increase?

If it is the turbo I am thinking of it wasnt very expensive at all (Second hand). So I guess he wanted it as he put more boost through it (Being steel wheel) and make 200rwkw easily rather than being on the edge of busting his stocker..I dunno, I see it pretty much as a stocker with steel wheels so it will last longer with more than 12 pound boost!

exacly what bunta said i go this cheap so thats why i brought it and all i want is about 210 rwkw i will be happy with that so i will see how i go

I know somone who has made 205rwkw on one on a r33 quite comfortably so you should get to 210 with the added bounus (Over stock)of not having to worry about your exhaust wheel falling off!

Well i think the 2510 would be better than a stock R33 turbo. I had the 2530 which by visual and measurements, it was only slightly bigger than stock, say 2/3 mm. Performance was substantially better though. Im sure running some pretty good boost, the 2510 would be better than a stocky. But you'll need a power FC , cooler and basic mods to get the best from it.

As far as oil and water lines, cost me about $100-$150 to do it. Take your turbo into hose shop and fittings and tell them what you want, study the turbo first.

Good Luck

thanks for your in put robo i have all the other mods the only thing i dont have done is the injectors so i guess i will see how i go so you just think take both turbos down to a hose shop and just get them to make up some hose like the orginal hoses to fit on the 2510?

Would it be as responsive as the stock turbo? Or more responsive?

Would it have the same top end as the stocky or less?

It went for a pretty cheap price - was considering it myself.

Wouldn't you make close to 200rwkw at 5000rpm on the stocker?

It's good if you dont have to worry about the turbine wheel going for a wander to look for the cat..

you definatly won't need injectors with that turbo, it will run out of puff up top, but will be very responsive :O

thats good to know least i aint speading more money my goal was over 200rwkw so if i make over that i will be happy with what i have spent

I don't know what you paid for it, but if i had a Gtst i'd stick a HKS 25/35 on with PFC, good tune, and make 230rwkw ish... still very responsive. but 25/35 would of been more expensive than the 25/10. Good Luck.

robo when you had the 2530 on what type of power were you making and what 1/4 mile times were you running ?

and have you fitted any of the turbos your self cause i was gonna give it ago untill someone said i will have trouble with the oil and water lines

1/4 times in my signature, [email protected] with the 2530 running around 19psi.

I fitted it all myself, its not too hard, Have you got the HKS neck off the turbo?

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
