GTR Turbo's - Garrett GT2560R


Recommended Posts

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?

    • Y'know what, after reading a topic on a 360kw build using a nistune (who ended up going LINK), im now considering a LINK over a nistune. The engine protection alone would probably be worth it. And id like to learn to tune so would be nice to have that safe guard. Which means i probably wont need a boost controller then, or the R35 MAF.  Becoming a bit of a blog now but oh wells. As mentioned previously, the goal is around 300kw, for a daily driver. Will be looking at fitting a highflow turbo or similar (something that doesnt require downpipes, manifolds etc to be changed out) when the current stock gives out or the money for it is there. 
    • Thanks guys. Are you meant to tighten the converter bolts through the starter motor hole? Think my plate between gearbox and engine is one piece. Im heading up there tomorrow.
    • Picked my tailshaft up yesterday arv!! Test fit it and because they've gone to a ford centre bearing and CV I had to modify the mounting bracket a little bit. 5mm of each side and she went up into position and fits well. It has a 1350 uni and flange on the gearbox end so it should be plenty strong!  Got stuck in this morning and started on the wiring mess. Cut out all the wires not required that go to the body connector and cut the engine harness out. Need to go through and work out which ones I need to keep and rewire into the new ecu. Should save a small amount of weight as well. I'd love to get in and rip the dash and everything out to completely remove wiring but cbf.  Next up was the power harness for alternator, starter etc. It has a few connectors from factory that run out of it. Cut it all apart and removed what was no longer required and put some new corro and taped it all back up and bolted it all back into place.  After that I worked out where I can mount the new flex sensor. Found a couple of factory bolt holes and drilled a new hole on the bracket to suit. Need to go get a few fittings and adapters tomorrow so I can keep going.   
    • Nah, im after the more newer looking, one with the OLED display
    • We revised the neutral wire instructions. The old way was wrong.  R34 gearbox change.pdf
