Looking at upgrading the turbos on my RB26

The 3 that im currently looking at are the HKS 2530, HKS GT-RS, Trust T517z and Trust T618z

Just wondering if anyone could help me choose between the 4 of them!

Im after MAX. power possible without loosing too much response

Orginally i was going to use a T04z but had decided to use "bolt on" upgrades to stay as stealth as possible

Cheers

James

thats 4 turbos.. so u want max power with good response??? last time i seen a T517Z dyno was a few weeks ago.. 350awkw @ 1.5BAR... with.. and i hate to say this, better response than the HKS 2530 :ninja:

Im a big HKS fan.. and i dont really like Trust much.. but.. theyre small bolt ons seem to eclipse the hks variety every time :(

I like both HKS and TRUST

STAY AWAY FROM T618Z they are for 280 degree cammed monsters, ive used them and they are not street friendly. (think 2540 but bigger)

Go T517Z 8cm's or GT2530's.... i prefer the T517z's over GT-RS as they are a bit too laggy.

we used T517z's on the below engine (totaly std int) to make 312rwkw at 15psi and 350 at 18psi. if you prefer the 10cm versions then you are in GT-RS lag city but will easily crack over 400awkw

618's are the biggest bolt on from memory, 450rwkw+

Seriously though, all the questions your asking have been debated over and over again.

You really need to read the info and workout what you want.

People can only re-post findings so many times...

I was wanting to use GT-RS turbines on my GT-R, but it seems there isnt much of a following for these. As i was told they were designed specificly for the RB26 to good response and mox power!

now can some one tell me a turbo that will make 400rwkw's with the same type of response as these and are cheaper at all!!! if i can get these for $3,500 im not paying a cent more for anything inferior to these!

9krpm : what were the response of the T517z like on your car? was your car the black GTR that was giving that white exa a run(from what the exa owner says) from Victor Harbor to Yankalilla?

what about the HKS GT-SS?? how do they match up to some of these other turbos?

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
