hey all, after purchasing this turbo ...http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=43594 i have reconsidered and it is up for sale again,

i got it for an absolute bargain and i am willing to let it go for what i got it for

$1200

this is a genuine HKS 2540 i have had it checked myself by unique autosports and they have confirmed its in pristine condition.

WILL NOT BOLT DIRECTLY ONTO RB25 without custom work regardless of what the other post says, but thats not the reason i'm selling it. my current turbo i have since figured out is actually bigger than this one.

in NSW but willing to ship at buyers expense

Wat kind of custom work to the manifold r we talking bout?? And how much??

dont know how much exactly matey, depends who you take it to and how much they know i guess.

who checked it out for you?

how many KM's on it?

I'm interested

both john and pete ( i think his name is, his dyno tuner) checked it and gave it the thumbs up.

as in the original thread KMs are unknown unfortunately... but cant be too high i'd guess considering the condition

there seems to be a lot of interest in this.

but as i said this will NOT bolt on easily at all, if you have a good metal worker who can rig up a flange or whatever then cool, but i dont want to be thought of as somebody who will rip people off, especially loyal SAU goers.

if whoever gets it finds out that they dont want to go ahead with it they could always sell it off as a sr20 turbo (probably for a tidy profit too) as thats what i believe it actually is so i guess i'm worried over nothing, I just dont want my good forum reputation ( i hope :( ) to suffer

try finding someone as honest as me elsewhere huh ;)

yeah tony, tried that first but it wouldnt let me post in the for sale section (i think a post count sorta deal) but i'm happier to let it go to someone on here if it comes down to it, look after our own ya know :(

what about this adaptor plate?

http://www.horsepowerinabox.com/HPIAB2/prod39.htm

Is this all thats needed to make this turbo fit a rb25? Then the oil/water lines need to be made up and thats it?

MJ possibly mate, looks about right but i'm not 100%

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
