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)

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
