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

    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat
