ok guys, i am nearing my end on trying to find someone to help thats not gonna cost me $1000.
i am in a unique predicament as i am from the United States and as such not many people know or have any knowledge of the kind Japanese Turbos and HKS hardware that is avaliable outside of the US.
you guys are my only hope. thanks in advance for any help that you may be able to provide.
setup: HKS GT2530 from R33 GT-R
T-25 5 bolt internal wastegate (HKS upgrade)
Garrett based design
Compressor: 63 trim- 47.7 inducer / 60.1 major
Turbine: 76 trim - 53.8 major / 47.0 major
now the problem
no idea what it ingested.
oil galleries are clear, water passages are clear, no damage to either housings. only damage is to the compressor.
HKS sez they dont sell this part seperate, and want to ship it to japan from an authorised dealership (closest is 8 hours away) and $900usd for a new center cartrige.
Garrett sez, yes its there design but they dont do replacements either. closest garrett has is the GT2860 (#707160-5) which is as follows:
Compressor: 62 trim- 47.2 inducer / 60.1 major
Turbine : same as HKS
i do have a serial # that was printed on the back of the HKS compressor that i will try and find again and post
ANYBODY know anything or anybody to help?
i have looked across the Skyline / Silvia forums and cannot find any topics on this.
Anybody have or know of a thrashed one of these? i just want the Compressor, the rest of the turbo is fine.
i have the ability to get everything balanced here in the states, just need the part.
once again, thanks in advance
