oh forgot to mention im on a budget here. Im dreaming if i think someone would swap a 2530 for mine aren't i?

Well its not "that" much more expensive than a hi-flow ($1700) or any other Garrett BB off shelf

second hand hks gt2530 can be had for $1000 to $1500

edit:

this one is brand new (O/H) 1.4k plus shipping so around 1.8k to your door

second hand ones are much cheaper

Michael thats actually a HKS GT2535 .

If you can find a cheap dead GT2530 (RB type) or a spare exhaust housing thats all it takes to bolt a GT2860RS on an RB six . GT2860RS/GT2530 are very similar compressor wise with the RS being the more modern of the two , both use the same identical turbine .

I'm with Nismoid , off the shelf a GT2530 is difficult to beat on a 2L six .

Cheers A .

same same, i posted the wrong link sorry lol

Try a MR Turbo Australia / Billet Turbochargers dealer.

There are many options available from bolt on ball bearing high flows to full Billet Turbochargers up grades.

Whats with the advertisement and no technical advice.

This is a technical thread after all :P

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
