lol... narkehh! it can be a 'low mount turbo' if it's mounted on a low-mount manifold you goose. Same goes for a high mount manifold.  The manifold determines your turbo mounting position, not the turbo itself! provided you have the space required of course..

HAHA ok cool... well thats ok then... why does every one opt for a high mount all the time then? i know i would prefer it to be less obvious... then again i guess im more secure in my hetrosexuality and penis size then those opting to show as much off as possible :mellow:

there's a few reasons, one is because the high mount is easier to access and work on than the low mount. It also allows you to display your big shiny fcuk off compressor wheel :blink:

The low-mount is stealth. Good for EPA inspections B)

LOL... yes I suppose Denham doesn't feel as secure as others. :lol:

i see... so no real performance gains at all?

cheers... oh and again for the number :blink:

haha poor denham... its not all his fault tho... its all about genetics :)

Dumbass u try low mounting my GT30 in my engine bay and tell you how successful u are.

It is also a waste of time high mounting a 2535 or 2540 as they are small and can still use the stock manifold

:mellow: theyre not small... theyre just small next to ur mammoth turbo lol

nark they are small man when comparing to the stock turbo side by side.

I measured the difference in size between the stock turbo and the 2530 and its like 2mm here and a couple there, bugger all really. The wastegate is much bigger though. The inlet neck is also better designed but overall, very little. I wasnt impressed.

Performance wise, the 2530 eats the stocky for breaky. It has so much midrange you can think you can take anyone on. Top end it falls over because its too small. My max power is at 5600rpm, after that you draw a straight horizontal line.

I would love to try something bigger, but i want a bolt on, something i dont have to piss fart around with dumps and inlets etc.

Robo, What about a HKS 2835.... they seem to make decent power...

Once my car is complete with an exhaust i mean, I would me more than happy to compare yours and mine...

At the moment it doesnt really feel like it is dropping of at all, and the dyno reflects that.. i dont know if it becuase i am only running 12psi, which may be the reason.

I had a garrett gt2835 in my hands last saturday at RUS's workshop on sat for an r32 rb20 when they were trying to bolt it on there as owner was told it was a straight fit turbo :P :P

Lets just say it still aint on there and custom mods to exhaust and intercooler piping needs to be made plus the comp and exhaust covers need to be rotated to match the stock turbo positions, and new oil and water lines are needed. It looked a nice size turbo tho

isnt that what kyrz has? that thing aint small at all lol

but the GT2540s are a lot easier to fit right?

Chris is meant to have a hks 2835 pro s which would be modified to fit the oil/water, cooler/exhaust lines for the rb25 fittings.

The garrett ones you need to modify yourself to fit everything. Its still a tight fit on the stock manifold down there for that turbo.

2540 is piece of piss to install

Thats what i like to hear, a bit of competition

    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
