HKS 2530, trust T518Z, apexi AX53B70 - depends on what you call too laggy or nice power. Responsive, spool quickly and good for from 230-250rwkw, depending on mods and a large mid range increase.

HKS2835, probably good for around 270odd rwkw (depending on mods), little more laggy than stock, but not hugely so, also good mid range

A couple of ideas anyways:).

it's for David (white R33) .... nah he doesn't want something that big .... and he wants cheap as possible, as he isn't sure he is keeping the car much longer - he wants a GTR

Hey dean, come for a ride now... Since porting the head It gulps air like nothing else, I can't get it to surge now at all, I am gradually bringing boost on earlier and earlier. My nitto's are wearing quick! (changing lanes is becoming a problem again) All I need is a Z32 A/F meter and I'm ready for a tune.

A 2535 is a perfect match for a RB25 in terms of Lag and power. Won't make much more than 250rwkw but will be a pleasure to drive in traffic. I think there is one for sale on the forum for $1500.... what's the price range you are looking for?

yeh matty, i will change the turbo soon, just gotta save up money for the rest, ie clutch.

So without the porting, what do u think u would of been making? Are u comin down to adel anytime soon?

The turbo works fine without porting. It is slightly laggy compared to other turbos 5 times the price.

I will be down in Adelaide soon ,but, without my wheels. you will have to come visit me in Syd. Autosaloon is a good excuse.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
