96709, Compressor carnage! Serious help needed
Posted by foggy45, Aug-11-06 12:13 PM
ok guys, i am nearing my end on trying to find someone to help thats not gonna cost me $1000.

you guys are my only hope.

setup: HKS GT2530 from R33 GT-R
T-25 5 bolt internal wastegate (HKS upgrade)
Garrett based design
Compressor: 63 trim- 47.7 inducer / 60.1 major
Turbine: 76 trim - 53.8 major / 47.0 major

now the problem :(



no idea what it ingested.
oil galleries are clear, water passages are clear, no damage to either housings. only damage is to the compressor.

Forced performance has yet to return my calls or emails
HKS sez they dont sell this part seperate, and want to ship it to japan from an authorised dealership (chicago) and $900 for a new center cartrige.
Garrett sez, yes its there design but they dont do replacements either. closest garrett has is the GT2860 (#707160-5) which is as follows:
Compressor: 62 trim- 47.2 inducer / 60.1 major
Turbine : same as HKS

i do have a serial # that was printed on the back of the HKS compressor that i will try and find again and post

ANYBODY know anything or anybody to help?
i have looked across the Skyline forums and cannot find any topics on this.
Anybody have or know of a thrashed one of these? i just want the Compressor, the rest of the turbo is fine.

Help me 2gnt-kanobi your my only help!
once again Thanks in advance to any help.

Here's a suggestion, if you can't run the exact same size compressor wheel, put something else in it?

Any turbo shop can customize a turbo. If you are on the west coast, try slowboyracing.com, they buy custome turbos from my old work place all the time.
