What are some turbos similar to HKS 2530? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

BigBump · 04-04-2007, 08:46 AM

So I have this 2530 on my car, and I'm thinking it's extremely similar to a garrett 2860, but I did some searching (probably not enough) and couldn't find specs to match the two closely.

The reason why is some guy is all wet about my turbo and wants to buy it, and I like the way it performs on my car so I want to get a similar turbo if the sale goes though.

Any help would be appreciated.

Shazam.

Bump.

Shazam?

sorry.

uh...

sorry can't think straight...

shazam? seriously?

ok ok...

2530 is a pile imo.

the 2535 is more of an upgrade, of course you do lose spool time.

I dont know though all you guys with your bottm mounts hks/garret/tomei...

Ive got the 50 trim on luke's car spooling up as fast a 2530 and its a straight T4...

Get a gt2871r .64 or a gt3071r and be done

Get a 2871R .64... But an S15 turbo would be a cheaper option that is similar to what you have...

Ya I understand that it's an "okay" turbo for an SR, and twin guys love them. I've been advised to get an .86 ar 3071 or 76 and a fullrace divided manifold.

Thanks for the info though.
