2540 rated at aprox 340ps at 1bar i think

2835 rated at aprox 360ps at 1bar

I think steve said the hks turbs are all measured at 1 bar. So u could wind more boost into the car easily. Also search the forums, think someone a while ago had a huge post about his 250rwkw r32 with rb20.

theres a few shops around here that sell good second hand turbos. Speak to someone like D1garage. they will give u good advice on what is best for u. then if u want they can source a turbo for u. other then that, look on ebay, these forums, and other shops in adelaide, like hikari performance, city jap parts have cheap turbos all the time.

I have seen a 2530 on RB20 make 230 at 1.2bar with 8200rpm redline. It was James (D1 Garage) cefiro, and it went bloody hard - you are looking at an easy 12 second car with that sort of power. Jut be aware that your gearbox may not like it too much, so make sure your tyres arent too sticky:)

With a 2530 you will get a big fat midrange and will come on boost early (ish). 2835 on grepins car is making 274 at 1.3bar, but will have alot more lag than a 2530.

It depends on your driving style. If you dont mind a bit of lag, go a 2835 (or even a T518Z) - if you want something with more down low, go a 2530. anther one to consider is the 2535, but once again it will have more lag than a 2530.

Having 8.5:1 CR, you can run 1.5+bar all day with a good tune and be very safe - so no probs there.

D1 Garage sell a new HKS2530 with ALL the bits (oil line fittings, water line fitting, snout for outlet, actuator (I think), etc, etc) for $3K. Second hand you may be able to save around 1K or a bit more, but for peace of mind, and so you dont end up having to buy more and more bits to make it fit - the new kit is pretty good value for money IMHO.

Give them a call, or better still drop in and see them - James lived in Japan for 4 years, has heaps of connections over there, has seen alot of different setups, and I am sure he will be able to help find the right turbo for what you are after. He has saved me a fortune, as I originally met him looking for an RB25DE head for a 3L conversion. After chatting to me, he talked me out of it, as he assured me I didnt need to go that path for what I was after. Tell 'em I sent you too, more discounts for me later:p.

thanx enrico and steve

you have both been a huge help

but seeing my car is still pretty much stock i guess i should get a few other things first

like fmic, oil catch and cooler, boost gauge and controller, dump pipe. you know

all the basic stuff i was also thinking maby one of those sub zero plenums

and i guess if the rb20 blows in the feuture i can always do the

rb25 thing then

thanx again guys and i might see yas on the next cruse :boobies2:

  • 2 weeks later...

i went into D1 garage and they had a greddy boost gauge (second hand) for $120. also a mate of mine bought the same gauge (same model gauge not the actual one) off them a few months before for $120. So i went back to buy it for $120 and they jacked up the price to $150 and wouldnt budge (yes it is the exact same one), even know the had it on the net still saying $120. i had $150 but thats not the point so i didnt buy it, this sh!ts me abit.

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
