i want to upgrade from my stock turbo, and my budget wont alow me to go all out at this point in time, so im thinking of hiflowing the stock rb20 turbo. i was thinking of throwing on a 33 turbo, but i think a hi flow 32 turbo would be more fun. anyone running a hiflow 32 turbo with any advice/ dyno graphs? cheers adam

hiflowing will set you back $1500~?

You can pick up a HKS2530 turbo for that price which will make 230kw atw w/ supporting mods.

The hiflow rb20 turbo would probably just hit 200kw atw i reckon

doesnt hypergear do rb20 hi flows for around $800?

would there be much difference in power/ response between hiflow 32 and stock s2 33 turb?

ah $800 ey not bad. Although a rb25 turbo sells for around $200~

for $800 you can import a hks2530 from japan

When i was looking back at getting a hiflow rb20 (at one point I had one but didnt fit on car) I was told it could make 210kw atw, whereas a rb25 turbo on a rb20 would make around 180-190kw but I couldnt find any evidence to back up the rb20 hiflow results.

I guess ask hypergear themselves how much power it can make and if its larger than a rb25 or is it smaller?

Let us know what you decide on.

$800 is bush bearing, not ball bearing.

Ball would be around $1500.

RB20's benefit the most from decent turbos - So if you are really dead set... spend as much there as possible, get a HKS2530 if you want the best suited

thats what im trying to find out. there is plenty of dyno results on the rb20 upgrade sticky about rb25 turb, but almost nothing on rb20 hiflow. i know it will be a few hundred $$ cheaper to get a 33 turb, but it will be a second hand turbo, quite possibly ready to f**k out on me. im not really after any specific number of rwkw, just a nice basic upgrade. i would imagine tho that 180-190 would be a realistic target, but a good tune is more important to me. i will let you know rekin. cheers adam

are 2530's BB? what hp are they rated to? are they a direct bolt-on to rb20 manifold? thanks nismoid

220-240 rwkw seems to be about the ball park for one, depends on supporting mods tho. Will bolt on to the RB manifold so long its a T3 flanged one.

personally i'd go a HKS GTRS over a 2530 but they are a little more exxy again

gtrs would be great, but the car is 17 years old. i dont want a track beast, i dont want some wank-off dyno number, ive spent the money on supporting mods, now i want a very basic turb upgrade.

The hks2530 is ball bearing, not sure on power rating. Will direct bolt on manifold, dump pipe another story...

HKS2530 came out in 2 models. Series 1 and Series 2.

Series 1;

- Has a unique flange and needs the matching HKS cast dump pipe to be able to fit onto car

- Has more fins on wheel

- No split between wheel/wasteage

Series 2;

- Has a T3 flange which direct bolts to rb20 dump pipe

- Has 9 fins on wheel which has been redesigned to be more responsive

- Has a split between wheel and wastegate as opposed to the series 1 hks2530

how much does the 2530 go for brand new, compared to the GTRS.

is the GTRS also a direct bolt on like the 2530?

thanks.

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.  
    • My steering lock unit on my Infiniti G37 has failed. The car is a local 2012 Infiniti G37 (Q60 ) I need to replace the unit My local mechanic said i need to buy a complete steering wheel assembly. Does anybody no any mechanics in Gold Coast or Brisbane who can fix this issue or where i can buy just the Steering lock control unit. Thanks
