Just to let you know its very suitable for an rb20, not too laggy and happy to support up to 300rwhp (on around 1bar?) with a nice phat torque curve. So very suitable for drift too.. its a pretty awsome turbo! Obviously u need supporting mods though

Ill put my hand up to say how good these turbos are... I will also add apart from a few little mods to exhaust and piping this is a fun upgrade... This is a real father/son mod and the results are sure to put a smile on your face...

Dont forget 24psi is easily done by one of these turbos but your motor wont handle it....

I found out the hard way many skylines ago...

But yeah bang for buck this turbo is great. I will also say 1500 bucks is cheap too...

Free Bump

Some were made with t2 flanges so they could be bolted straight onto sr20/ca18 engines and some t3 flanges so they cud go onto rb20/25 engines! If u find one thats been on a sr20 u can get an adapter plate to make it a t3 flange, but i heard some problems plus its easier if its goes straight on...

Sorry Guys for not replying, I have been very busy with work during the V8 supercars this weekend.

I will take it off Monday and email the pics asap.

If you want pics give me your email address, and i will forward them monday night.

Q1 =Internal gate

Q2 =(Power) approx 300rwph (1 Bar)

Q3 =(Drift) I would say so, They are very responsive and wont give up untill redline

Q4 =(Adelaide) Can be posted/shipped, can find out price. I would preffer Perth/WA

Q5 =(Other mods) Maybe the 90 deg bend off the turbo to intercooler piping, I have a genuine HKS 90 deg bend.

Q6 =(Direct Bolt on) Yes, may need to play around with some rubber hoses but thats about it, I will also supply the wastegate actuator. The Dump pipe will bolt up, T3 flange so it will bolt upto the original exhaust manifold

Q7 =(T2/T3 Flange) Most were T2 flange for the SR20 because the SR20 is very common, T3 flange is harder to get, This is a genine HKS T3 flanged GT2530

Micheal, I will email the pics asap.

Colin Thanks for the free Bump.

This is a good opportunity to purchase a great turbo (especialy for RB20) for a good price, I hade to wait 3 months to find one!!!!

This is not just the Garret 2530 but a HKS GT2530!!!

Can call me 0412 475 321 ASHLY

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
