I just bought my car and found out with alot of research that i have this turbo in my r32 gtst skyline. my only mods when i bought the car there was a fuel regulator, 3 inch exhaust and dump pipe and and pod filter...its boosted to 15psi at the moment. Just wondering what power gains should i be reaching with this sort of turbo. Is it rated better than the HKS GT2530? i was thinking it is as its bigger. but the 2530 is smaller so it will have better low and mid range response?

power gains arent great unless u have the back up items to match. Sure its a bonus that u have this "Larger" turbo but without a front mount cooler i wouldbe winding boost down to 12-13psi, i made that mistake and im rebuilding my engine, do urself a favour, before going insearch of power, go insearch of back up systems to suit(ie computer, fuel pump etc)

Is this a better turbo than the hks GT2530? coz yeah i dont have a front mount , but i have a remapped ecu, im pretty sure i dont have a bigger fuel pump...do u guys think this is the reason why my car seems even slower and has alot of lag? coz i dont have the power system to back up this turbo?

If your car does indeed have this turbo, I suggest following the recommendations of people already and fitting a front mount asap. You should also be addressing your fuel supply issues and fitting a higher flowing fuel pump and looking at some larger injectors.

If you get these areas sorted, you should end up with a fairly tidy package

Take your car to a reputable workshop and have it checked. If I was you I wouldnt be so focused on how much power this turbo of yours might make.

I'd be confirming once and for all what you are running and checking that everything is in good order before you run into trouble.

Aybee he would get much more than that in my oppinion. The 2835 is larger and flows mopre than the 2530 and 2530 can get 200rwkw easily... My mate has his 2530 making 210rwkw @ 17psi. Should make around 230 or so?? How do these go on a RB25?

what?

so are you saying that it should make much more than 250rwkw? or around 230. cause i said that it would be good for "mid 200's" meaning around 240-260rwkw.

But thats whay ive always thought my car would be good for and its slightly more powerful than the std 2835 (420ps compared to 380ps)

Ok i have been waiting for a 2535 for a month now... not sure whats going on but aparently HKS have them on back order and cant give a definate eta. Does anyone know how the 2835 will stack up compared to the 2535? i may go bigger... is it laggy? will i need cams? ANYONE PLEASE! ps its for a RB25DET

HKS GT2535 - 340 PS Output

COMPRESSOR:

-Wheel- 56 Trim - 51.6 Inducer / 69.0 Major

-Housing- 60 Inlet / 50 Outlet - 0.60 A/R

TURBINE:

-Wheel- 76 Trim - 53.8 Major / 47.0 Exducer

-Housing- GT25/T3 inlets / Outlet specs:

Internal GT25 outlet; 0.64, 0.86 A/R

Skyline Type; 0.64 A/R

HKS GT2835 Pro S - 420 PS Output

COMPRESSOR:

-Wheel- 56 Trim - 53.1 Inducer / 71.1 Major

-Housing- 100 Inlet / 50 Outlet - 0.50 A/R

TURBINE:

-Wheel- 84 Trim - 56.5 Major / 51.8 Exducer

-Housing- T3 inlet / Outlet spec:

Internal GT-Pro; 0.68, 0.87 A/R

I'm going out on a limb here - but my guess would be that the 2835 will be laggier. (80PS Difference)

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
