Guys I have had a lot of PM's in regards to these turbos. I have no idea about the technical aspects, housings turbines etc all I know they are HKS 2530's!!! LOL. What you see in the pics above (pics are of the exact turbos).

UPDATE: On sale again due to time waster!!! I have gone and done the right thing and taken both turbos to Mark (head guy) at GCG. He has inspected both turbos and says both are in good working order.

I would be more than happy to go to GCG with you, and the turbos, so you can hear it from Mark's mouth.

$2k for both now that I have Mark/GCG's assurance that both turbos are fine (ie: he says a tiny bit of shaft play on both which is totally normal for ball bearing turbos and no oil leaking at all from the rear of either turbine).

Sorry, I am in Sydney. Turbos are currently in Padstow just 5 minutes from GCG. So happy yo meet up in Padstow, then go to GCG for a live inspection/approval.

PS: No receipt for the rebuild! I can't find it (I've turned the house absolutely upside down looking for it, no luck).

Both turbos have been stamped though, with a metal GCG plate with numbers on it which must correspond to GCG's files? I am not sure, but Mark knows the turbos and remembers me and my ripped off on SAU story so all good.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
