Hi there guys...

I am able to get a HKS GT2510 with HKS pipe for dirt cheap....

As it is cheap, Im thinking of saving money and just putting it in my r33 gtst instead of saving money for a bigger turbo...

Will this turbo give me very good low down torque? I mean like a very good 0-100 timing due to the fast initial acceleration?

The turbo comes with a MINES ecu for r33...tell me ehat do you guys think.

Also, will this turbo restrict me in anyway...???

How does this turbo compare to my rock stock r33 turbo???

Thanks a lot guys!!!

DAN

i think on the rb25 it will choke and wont be much of an upgrade. the stocker gtst turbo is a gt25 unit already im pretty sure. the 2510 has a 0.64 housing, which is pretty similar to the stock turbo housing. there have been guys running these twin combo on rb26, single on sr20 or ca18 but not on rb25.

shows it on an rb20 and it lacks top end, so it would only choke more on an rb25 and kill your top end. that being said what is your current 0 to 100? the stocker turbo is awesome for great 0 to 100 as theres jack all lag, you should be boost well before 3000rpm. if you wanna bump up the 0 too 100 and still have stock ecu, change to powerfc will give you a good upgrade

Thanks for your reply paulr33,

My 0-100 timing is about a good 1.03 seconds slower than yours.

Out mods are about the same...except u got a powerFC :aroused:

Im surprised how a powerFC can make such a big difference...thats really cool....was tuning the powerFC a bitch though (like how much did it cost?)??

I still dont understand how a car with a AVCR and SAFCII..........compares with a PowerFC with a powerFC boost comtroller???

Are these 2 setups the same/similar???

Which one is better (cost wise, tuning wise, ease of use)??

Cheers

Dan

And thanks to all who have replied!!! :D

In basic terms the HKS GT2510 uses the same compressor as their GT2530 (63 trim 60mm) and the same turbine as Garretts base BB GT28R . Its not really a performance turbine as such , more of a standard high response type thing aimed at OEM apps .There are better things out there for RB25's .

I know this is out of the topic.....but can someone explain to me how a car with a AVCR with boost control and SAFCII..........compares with another car with a PowerFC and powerFC boost comtroller???

Are these 2 setups the same/similar???

Which one is better (cost wise, tuning wise, ease of use)??

the power fc is a full engine comp....u can tune every aspect of the car through the ecu...and monitor just about everything. the boost controller for the power fc, is basically an avc-r without the screen. the power fc controls the boost.

a safc is an airflow converter and is used to tune the air/fuel mixtures by telling the original ecu how much air the engine is getting at so many revs at such n such throttle positon and modifying it through the unit.

both perform the same jobs, just with the power fc you have control over everything...but its more expensive and so is tuning. the safc can be tuned with just an air/fuel ratio meter.

what linton said :)

the powerfc is a big increase over stock ecu even with basic mods, no boost cuts, no speed limiter, tunable, comes with hand controller, easily upgradeable and tuneable when you add parts. cost me $0 to fit it (myself) and $350 for a tune. even without a tune, running the stock maps you get more power over the stock ecu and the you dont get that big power jump at 5000rpm, thats altered with the powerfc and you just have a constanst curve

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
