OK, I dont really know sh*t about turbos :-} but have been reading recient posts to try to build up my Knowledge.

From what i have read the GT2530 is a good responsive turbo that can make about 250rwkw.

My current perf mods are:

3' turbo back zaust,

zaust cam gear,

cold air box with pod,

FMIC,

PFC Pro,

ceramic button clutch,

supra twin turbo fuel pump jap spec (was told that they flow better than GTR ones by far, maybe somebody can varify that?)

NGK irriway7 plugs.

I think thats it.

I would like a turbo that doesnt lag any longer than 3,500 but still comes on boost hard. I plan to get new injectors and a z32 afm in the future but not for awhile. My car currently makes just over 200rwkw on the standard turbo, what turbo whould make a good replacment for me?

any advice would be great thanks.

try gcg turbos 0418645461 in canberra they do a high flow on yours whilst there at it, it gets new roller bearings new steel exhuast wheel so big boost is possible(ceramic wheel wont shatter)and apparently will do just as good as 2530 and costs bugger all in comparision

you wont need a fuel pressure reg if you are doing injectors.

probably better off with a 2535 or 2835 than 2530, as it will make the power a bit easier.

$1550 is a bargain for a second hand HKS turbo, even if it needs rebuilding it will be a better price than new. you can also sell your stock turbo. It will be a good idea to upgrade the pipe from AFM to turbo to, so anther $150-200 there, then similar may be needed for turbo to cooler. Oil and water lines, $300 or thereabouts. Injectors around 1K. AFM around $350 with a plug.

be ready to pay around 5-600 for a full remap with the injectors too.

good luck

I have started to think that if I am going to spend around $4000 on a 2535 setup then I may as well save up a bit more and go for something like a GT3035 or something alike...

Does anybody out there have a setup like this? & what are your experiences with it, eg power, boost, spool up time and so on & what price range would I be looking at for this?

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
