I would assume it would be slightly me responsive being ball bearing as opposed to journal (kkr items are journal bearing type are they not?) ...

also aren't the kkr series only oil cooled whereas the HKS item is water and oil cooled??

if I could have my pick I would have anything HKS put on my car over anything else on the market :D

Don't get me wrong, I love the japan stuff, but he already has the bigger KKR. A 2530 won't make the same power. It's considerably smaller. If we're talking a comparable Jap turbo you'd be looking at something the size of a 2840 or a GT30 I would think?

only making around 295rwhp

yes its laggy bout 4500rpm full boost

the car with 2530 on it i took it for a drive last nite, very good low down torque and mid range wheel spins coming on in 2nd but yeah

i dunno wot to do lol

help me!!! some ppl say 2530 2 small for rb25? im only really after 300rwhp would 2530 get me there easy enough?

well the motor has 250,000kms on it and ive been running 19psi thru it for last 6 months

so 300rwhp is pretty much the limits i think and response would be nice my thing is laggy as hell haha its a joke!

obviously you're unhappy with your current lag and you've seen the down low response of the 2530. whats holding you back?

250000kms? wtf juz?

295RWHP@19psi, with fully boost at 4500rpm = VERY SHIT TURBO!!

For a turbo to make full boost at 4500rpm i would expect it to be pretty damn big and make at least 330rwkw (450rwhp)

Kkr's aren't shit ..

however the kkr430 would have been the better option... unless you want to use it for just drags etc. it's not going to get great response with a stock engine,

John Cane runs (drifter) runs a kkr430 on his Rb25det in his laurel and it goes awesome!

Read specs here > otomoto

I had a HKS 2535 which is a little better but I have been in an RB25 with a 2530 on it and there is almost no lag! It was an awsome street car the only downfall it had was that you couldnt push it to redline you were better of shifting at 6 - 6,500 rpm...

I would do it.. it will make about 220 - 230 max but i have seen them run mid 12's in an R33.. PM Robo's on the forum, he had one.

Its not all about rwkw.... from how laggy you have said your turbo is, the 2530 would destroy the kkr setup on the street even if it was making a bit more power.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
