hey guys just on the same topic i was wondering how these turbos that u r talking about (same as pnblight) how do they compare to hks 2530s in max power and response?

i hear people saying 500hp at wheels is too much for these turbos, but only pnblights freak gtr :) has got the higher figure.  

im trying to decide between these turbos, hks 2530s, single t04z, single garret GT35/40R for my stock capacity rb26 wanting response as most importance and capable of abit over 500hp at wheels with suitable other parts which i have already ;)

any info/comments most welcome

thanks guys

the gt2560r and hks 2530 are both rated at 320hp both 0.60ar compressor and 0.64ar turbine and compressor wheel design is the only really difference, so there should very little reason the gt2560r and hks 2530 wouldn't produce similar bhp and from what mine and ricks gtr produce it looks to prove rule in the real world.

mine 529.4rwhp 20psi ulimate 98 (gt2560r) 11.3 sec 1/4 mile

ricks ~550rwhp 25psi c16 race fuel (hks 2530) from memory 11.5 1/4 mile

by the look of that pnblight the 2560R's make more power than the 2530's seeing as thats 5 psi more and race fuel compared to pump fuel.. try run yours on race fuel and run 25psi :) see wat you pull out of them..

i was thinking twin 350 Garrets for my 26 seeing as they are only just slighterly bigger than the 320 34 N1's i imagine there would be stuff all difference in lag depending on setup

Dude which turbos are you think of as i would becarefull as the gt2560r as a special design as by just grabbing any all garret you may not get the result you wish for (ie the difference between the hks 2530/2540 would seem little) but the 2540 are not a good turbo in terms of responce on a gtr.

yeah sound good in theory BUT i stop tuning awhile ago for one very important reason STD internals when we made 500rwhp so easily and had really had that as a goal (I was actually aiming 450 believe it or not) I then decided not to go any further until I do a forged internal build up, so maybe later this year or early next year i may turn up the wick and see what is really possible from this combo.

Guys can I just clarify a few points from this thread?

- The GT2560-R is closer in specs to a HKS 2530 than a N1 turbo?

- The HP supported by these turbos is 320 or 350 each?

- These turbo's are a direct replacement of the standard GTR turbo

Lastly, what is approximate retail price on these turbos?

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
