hey guys how yas doing, ive recentely upgraded the turbos on my r32 gtr to hks 25/30s, is there any way i can run watsegate or 2 of them some how, the car has just been done, ive never dealt with an external wastegate but was just thinking is it possible to put it on the gtr, btw its low mount, as much replies would be appreciated thank you

Kind of hard to understand what you are asking. You want to know whether you can run an external wastegate (or two) on your setup which is currently running internal gates? If this is the case, why?

yeppp thats what im asking, i wa sspeaking to a few boys down here but i didnt really want to go with what they said, id rather post it on here as guys from here would probably know more, its running the turbos as ive mentioned above

Ok I thought that's what you were asking.

So back to my question I posted, why do you want to go to external wastegates when the internal wastegates on 2530s work perfectly fine? Let me guess, screamer pipe?

yeah man i just want it to work better, if its better running the internal ill leave it but if external is bvetter for it ill do it, what would i have to do though?

nahh man got no boost controller problem was just thinking if its better ill go ahead and do it, i just want to knwo what will work better for my car with these turbos, internal or an external, if external how is it possible to do?

Nothing wrong with the 2530 internal wastegates. Been running em with HKS dumps for years and they do not spike, creep etc.

The wastegates are a lot bigger than the pissy stock ones. Dump pipes that have a separate outlet for the wastegate gases is the way to go with less turbulence than the stockers.

Yep the stock internal gates on them are completely fine and the amount of money you would spend turning them to externals would be money better spent elsewhere. Not to mention to absolutely no benefit.

yeah im running hks 25/30s with the older style tomei dumps, what will i need to make it external, what would need to be changed as ive never chased information on these, what wold i need to take off and purchase?

Whoever these people are

"i was speaking to a few boys down here but i didnt really want to go with what they said"

Then don't listen to them anymore, they clearly have NO idea what they are talking about.

You do not need external wastegates for HKS 2530's. They work perfectly fine on their own.

There is zero performance gains by performing such a modification.

The only thing that will happen is you wasting your money

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
