Excellent work and congrats on the record runs. Highest I could find for 2530's on a GTR after a quick search is 501hp@wheels in an R33:

The Phoenix runs are on a 4WD chassis dyno.

But anyway, how can you possibly lay claim to the world champ 2530 title without a fight? However, you'll get your chance at WSID on April 9 when a special guest is flying in to defend his world title..... Ladies unt Gentlemen, I give you (drumroll)

Would love to know if those Japanese/English/Australian power figures were on chassis dynamometer???

Timing was an extra 4 deg for that run.

anyhow...how awesome was it 2rismo....your reaction on the video was priceless. Can you host it somewhere, maybe when you get back to work (dial-up boy).

In the Dyno shootout comp. yesterday, TWO.06L recorded a mind blowing 627bhp.

which is 467kw. Is this a new World Record for a GTR running 2530 turbos, or for that matter low-mount turbos alltogether. Jim from Croydons is sure it is but we would like to find out for sure. By the way nitrous-oxide running cars do not qualify and must be running on jap pump fuel or equavilent.(we ran VP 103)

That is absolutely mind blowing and congratulations.

Can I ask how you can get 600hp turbo's working well over their designed limit.

Don't get me wrong but my understanding is turbo's are rated for X amount of power and your combination exceeds the 2530's capability by miles.

Just wondering how it's possible. I understand if you don't won't to give away any secrets but could you provide a broad explanation on how you achieved it.

I don't wish to take anything away from this great achievement I am just really interested to know that it is possible.

Cheers

Great result!

If you have std diff ratios it looks like you're well over the 9 grand mark at the top of fourth? What rods and crank are you running?

Cheers

Don't you remember us Gav.....we are the ones who do cryogenic treatment. The run was to 8000...our redline is 9200. The rods and crank are stock and our diff ratios are too.

Thanks for the congrats.....well it goes a little something like this.......HKS rate their turbo for the worst possible senario. eg on a stock engine using poorly designed manifolds and dump pipes (stock), standard head,cam timing,intercooling,piping etc.

The more efficient you make any of these pieces of the equation, the more efficient the turbos will become (minimise the losses in the system) Every part of our set-up has been thououghly examined to see if we could cut/minimise the loss and therefore increase the turbos efficiency. Correctly selected camshafts, portmatching of manifolds, and CORRECT porting of head play a crucial role in this.

The velocity of gas flow in the turbine side of the system has to be taken into account when porting a RB26 head, we believe we have got this part of the build spot-on. Too many times old school principles have been adapted to RB26 or for that matter any modern turbo engine build-up and the results have not been forthcoming.

HKS 2530 turbos are designed to be efficient at between 1.4-2.0 bar the results on the weekend were achieved using a lowly 27psi. I think in my own mind that their HP rating should only be used as a guide and not as a maximum figure. As a rule of thumb calculate at least 10-20% higher if you do the build correctly.

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
