I was reading a write up on a comparison on the GT2530(I think) and the GT-RS in zoom I think it was, was a very goof read. I'll scan it in and post it if anyone was keen to have a look?

 

The end result was that although the GT-RS lacked a little bit in top end the mid range response was awesome. It was picked over the GT2530 but price is a bit of a turn off.

Could you send me a scan of this article. I'm very interested in the GT-RS turbo but now I wonder.

Thanks

I have been doing some research, and it LOOKS to me based on the comments throughout here on GT2530s etc that a TD05-big 16G from a Mitsubishi EVO3 (and some others) would do a similar job.

I think with many of the turbos designed for 2L 4cyl they would make a noticeable amount less on the RB25.. If you could get it rebuilt to more suitable A/R ratios and the like could be an idea though, esp if you're getting it for dirt cheap.

I have been looking at the GT-RS .. at $2500 for a "full kit" (+ taxes etc) its worth thinking about. I am not sure whether i want massive HP numbers to start with on a stock bottom end, and that looks like it fits the bill.

So consensus is around 240rwkw or so with a nice broad powerband? A dyno graph for rb25 would be very nice to see :)

Thought the gtrs was a bigger turbo - people seem to be getting more power from these than 2835??!!

strictly speaking, 2835 is a 400ps rated turbo, exactly the same as GT-RS.

Its the 2835Pro and 2835R that have the 420ps rating. Hence more power from the 2835Pro's that people such as grepin (287rwkw?) are getting. I think that was at 1.2 bar. So far ive heard a GTRS pull 250rwkw at 1bar, so they arent too far apart.

Hi guys late post.I got this quote from www.horsepowerinabox.com

I can do the GT2535 in the T3 flange internal gated for $1750, but not the

GT2530.

We also do a 500hp core unit with a .70 comp cover for the RB25 as a bolt on

Internal gate for $2150.

Regards

Do any of you know the garret gt2535 turbo's housing specs.Are they the same as HKS?

I also found a link to a site where HKS is compared to garret. clickey

lol dyno was at the wheels of course.........

mods are just the usual bolt ons so far

HKS gt-rs turbo

HKS 550 ccinjectors

greddy plenum

HKS fuel pump

splitfire coils

apexi power fc

HKS silent hiper exhaust

HKS type S intercooler

HKS evc

HKS metal flow

HKS sqv

HKS iridium plugs

few other bits and peices no internals yet so could pull more power easily....

There is a mountain of "garrett" vs "HKS" discussion in this very forum... its amazing

Do You guys know if garrett turbos are rated in ps atw or ate(at the engine)??Likewise with HKS.

pretty much all the turbos I know rate at the engine.. its only rough anyhow.. too many factors can vary it around.

Least you know the HKS is going to come out of the box working :D

NICE:)...all done at BD4s?...i bet Paul loves you:)

SAS have a good name around the traps of not leaning on engines too hard, and dyno figures being on the money...so very nice results with what should be a strong reliable combo:thumbsup:

Last question...what boost is it running to make that power and where is boost pressure being measured?

LOL...if you own an RB25:(

Yeh Paul is a tope bloke, runs a tight ship:thumbsup:...shame he hasnt gone crazy with the R34 yet:(

Yet is the word the big t51r sittin there waitin to go on..i went it for a spin it the other day to see how the shocks went....drooled the whole ride :D

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
