f*k this really

Relax bro.

First important point is that 500rwhp has been done many times on 2530's, so lets suppose there is a non-turbo related problem with your setup. If you change to a high mount now, you will not address whatever that problem is. Sensible steps would be; try another tuner (since your tuner has stated that the 2530's wont do 500), drop the exhaust (don't assume - verify).

Re: fuel flow, just keep an eye on injector duty, if its gets too high that means you have a fuel flow issue, as they are large enough for the 2530s.

i tried to read the gtx thread and omfg all it is in 50 f**kin pages is people spewing rubbish.

I found 1 guy who had posted up sheets of his old and new turbo.

This site used to be very helpfull but now all you get is people who tell you what not to do with short answers that help no one.Every one seems to know best but no one posts up any proof.

I come here to find out the best set up for my car to make the sorta power im looking for with some response.

I dont want to rebuild the 25/30 and try again to fail again on pump fuel,I want to change to a single but i get mixed msg from every one.Skylines australia used to be such a good comunity with people who were only too happy to help but now you get alot of people who mouth off and are stuck up assholes.

f*k this really

Trial and error with some setups. Research on more than one site. Find what u like and give it a go.

Not everyone is the same. Different people have different opinions, especially when it comes to what is considered laggy.

In regards to the gtx series, i would take status's advice. He has tuned alot of cars with different setups and would know whether or not these are any good. He stated they are not any more responsive and require big boost to come to life.

dont get me wrong i love the 2530s guys i love them.

I just want more out of them on pump

they start to spool at 3000 rpm and out of the gate they are just an awsome setup.

i think il give the gtx a miss too many people complain about them not doing what they are ment too.Id love to find some one who has a gtx 35r with dyno sheets on pump but no one seems to have done enuff testing.

As for my turner he is very good.

He seems to think my acuators are not strong enuff and they are closing on full boost.

Maybe thats all it is.

I know they fall over around 6700 and onwards.

Still yet to put the cams in as they are comming from japan.

They are odd tho

264 10.01 and i think they are 260 10.08 or 264 10.08 lift

stage 2 hks

Whos the best to see about rebuilding my hks 25/30s

my exaust should be good enuff its

Id love to stay with the twins to be honest but i would really hate to have them rebuilt and have a massive fail on hp topping out around the 450-470 on a dynapac hub dyno.;............

Lets put it this way, those GT2530s will not be the cause you are topping out at that power - they go way past that power level on Dynapacks with no issue at all. There could be a very good chance that instead of rebuilding them, you put on a completely different turbo setup and get very similar results due to the fact it won't be the turbos causing it... unless you turn out to not actually have GT2530s of course.

Pull your head in and stop being so rude.

You're getting free advice for your problem. Be grateful.

What caused you to get those cams and is your head totally stock and not machined in any way?

As for my turner he is very good.

To me, you seem a bit closed minded, and not really willing to give the ideas in this thread full consideration. IMO you should re-assess the beliefs you hold now. Let's just say "he may be very good".

He seems to think my acuators are not strong enuff and they are closing on full boost.

You mean opening on full boost :) But then, why are you talking about a turbo upgrade if you have an actuator problem? At the moment you have a boost control issue, that is probably due to weak actuators, but you have yet to verify that.

It certainly sounds good. But for sake of a little work why not verify that?

You need to slow down and troubleshoot this in a methodical manner. And to do that, you'll need to relax first :)

Good luck

well without making it to complicated,

here is a very well proven setup that will get you the results.

260 poncams, in cam +3 to 4 degrees advanced, ex cam -4 to 6degrees retarged. valve springs,port matched ex manifolds and 2530's on 24-26psi will have it in the bag. (ecu injectors fuel pump stock dumps and a good exhaust)

thank you every one for your help.

Turns out it may not be the turbos looks like comp is down in 6 looks like my old stock motor has seen its day.

Will find out if the turbos are all good but at this stage according to my mechanic he says the turbos are proberly fine.

But every one was most helpfull.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
