well it has a stock wastegate. well you can but you need to probably run an exhaust and pod to make the full potential of the turbo.

again its upto you to put extra mods to get more power (injectors, ecu, fuel pump, boost controller)

well you can put it on either rb20 or rb25

and the 2530 is the least laggy out if the hks gt series

I have a HKS GT2530 turbo to suit RB20, RB25 and SR20

Mr Rb20 they are a great turbo for an RB20. But be sure it is a T3 not T25 flange.

The same turbo cannot fit an SR20 and RB series engine as they have different exhaust flanges.

Forgetting the very latest HKS turbos the HKS GT2510 is the smallest, but typically the 2530 is seen to be the better option.

Oh and it uses an internal wastegate.

Do a search, plenty of happy RB owners using 2530s with stock injectors and re-written ECUs.

read the last page of thre thread, some RB25 owners weigh in on the conversation.

I have been in a RB25 witha 2530, and i sure dont think its "too small".. its very responsive and can give up to a 50rwkw improvement over std turbo. A great turbo.

from my understand the sr20's and rb (20 and 25) are changable

    • Started sifting thru my brakes to decide which ones I will run on Clem   Made me think I should just put them all on Silver...for when brake fade just isn't an option   Should be able to bump rotor up from 343x32 to 348x36 off Supra. Not sure if the Supra annulus is right for the Alcons or APs but trying g to find a used Supra\M4 rotor to test fit The Alcons seem to gain 1-2mm clearance which all helps  
    • So car is getting a few mods to the cage and some jacking points welded in Meantime Ol Silver gets a new gearbox and shiny clutch.  Old Box is being set aside for Clem  
    • Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.
    • Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way
    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate
