the turbos sounds good to me. Im not an expert or anything but I would be sure to ask them about the results of the turbo on a rb20. Maybe the can send u dyno sheets, and even pics of the cars.

as long as i have been researching I seen the hks 2530,2535 or a lil laggier 2540 and 2835 are most suitable for skylines.

Im hoping to get a 2835 in the future.

:cheers:

let me know how you go

take it easy

My thoughts are you could most likely do better. I have a Trust turbo so this applies to me as well, but the turbo isnt water cooled- so run an oil cooler, and isnt ball bearing-but it does have 360deg thrustplate.

And going on those specs i dont think it will make 500hp, how much hp are you chasing?

Did you read Roy's post?

hi i am not looking for major performance say like 300-350 hp,i ahve an apexi exhaust(due to be changed for a hks single box exhaust)a hks air filter and bov,and a mines ecu..the turbo is standard and can only seem to boost to 0.5,i have put a bleed valve on aswell to see if i can get to go higher on the boost,but seems the more you open it the same it stays...and i have checked and double checked everything so i have jsu put it down to a dudd turbo....

I doubt that it's a dud turbo ... more like a dud bleed valve. Or you have put the bleed valve in the wrong way round. If the turbo was dud it probably wouldn't make any boost at all :D

That turbo you put a link to should be able to make what you're looking for on an RB20

    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
