Good news message for geordie_liam

 

Look what was bolted to the back of your old engine, two cracking HKS 5 bolt turbo`s, Jamie removed them and refitted to the replacement engine for you.

 

 

Oh and as a taster a few pics from earlier of your zed

 

 

 

 

 

nice suprise! thats a gleaming workshop you've got there Jeff :thumbup:

Result there matey

 

I could do with a bit of that kinda' luck :clap:

wow, why does that kind of thing not happen to me :(

Sweeeeet! Yea hks gt2530's, so will it be ready for Saturday? Travelling with my mate down to Surrey first to drop off an s13, then going somewhere else in Surrey to pay for an r6, his mates riding that back then we will be heading up to tamworth, we are leaving at 5 a.m. And hoping to get to zedworld for 2-3pm, let me know if this is too late and I will get a train instead

 

cheers! =)

Might be worth getting the part number off them as HKS did other turbos?

i knew that, it was cadpauls old car and he found out it had them

Paul had them fitted......................and im more than sure they aint 2530's. More or less standard tubs is what he said iirc

IIRC I think they may be 2510's

whatever they are they will be more reliable than the standard ones! :lol:

not that much difference between 2510 and 2530 from what i can see?

well spotted that man!!

who cares how much power they make... now you know you have them, plaster the car with HKS stickers top to bottom!

paul didnt have them fitted, they were on when he bought it and didnt know, i do know that i fitted that front bumper though

i think you will find he did and kept it pretty quiet, the first question I asked him when he told me was did he get the 2530's and im sure that it was topless that did the work iirc, if not i'll shut up :whistling::winkiss:

Wish I had this kind of good luck... normally I get told its been downgraded at somepoint... LOL

he told me that when topless did the water bypass he got a phone call to say that they were already fitted

 

he may have been lying???

He didn't know they were on the car, we told him and IIRC they are 2510s.

Well he only told me when I bought the car that they were hks turbos, so after having a spy with the car on a ramp at work then googling hks turbos going off pictures I saw I guessed 2530's but looking again on the hks site they use the same picture for both by the look of it so like already mentioned I will probably only know by going off part numbers etc. At the minute I couldn't afford to use either to their full potential so at this stage it doesn't matter I just want to get the car home and get the smile on my face that no other car has done since i last drove my zed

Good man. Its not always about hp :biggrin:

you have a porker to paly with lol

More excited then I am watching this poor excuse for a match put it that way

StellaZ your right im loving the Porker mate, but have not spent almost every waken spare minute working on it for 9-10 months.

 

My Zed has a leaky core plug they need to do, my new rad has a leak and a few loose hoses etc and thats it I believe. The replacement core plug is going to be a bit of a git to do apparantly?. Thing is the guy working on it only works on a Wednesday and Saturday morning by the sounds of it so it is dragging on now. Also it seems difficult to get the car dyno time when the bloke doing it is there so its been a sloooooow process. Thought I was going to get it back this week but when I called they said they had no dyno time and had not had a chance to do it.

 

The MOT is nearly out on it as well now, I wanted to bed the brakes in and drive it for a bit before the next one.

 

Ahh well just have to keep waiting.....
