well you really can't... its not a case of having your cake and eating it unfortunately.

Dude, you can't. Exhaust is a by product of burning fuel.

Plenty have - hence there is a thread in the N/A section about... "how to convert your N/A" http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/69998-please-read-how-to-turbo-na-skyline-updated/ All the info is there, please have a read. Thanks.

Whilst turbosmart make a lot of excellent products that i've used in the past The ole "dual stage" boost controller is probably one of the worst products on the market. Turbotech is the way to go, cheaper as well.

Post a price as per forum rules.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/347205-scammer-announcement/ All info is there

6 threads in the past month, all about "what does this ECU do". Do some research please. There is MORE than enough info around. We've also said countless times to please talk with your tuner and make an informed decision based on their recommendation, given they will be doing the tune on it. Thanks.

Tune out the smell of exhaust? Oh dear...

Poor man pays twice - when a non genuine gasket shits itself and you have to replace it again? $150 + time, real winner!

You'll see why its meaningless below... How can you even begin to post that and use it as a comparative result? You've changed the exhaust housing which has altered boost from 18psi @ 5000rpm to 18psi @ 4200rpm To me it basically looks like all your gains are from the exhaust housing and nothing else.

Also proportionally speaking there are not many 3071 results vs 2835 There are a few of each, but not many. Given the price of a 3071 this is odd, and it comes back to my budget comment @ the end of the post above. People either go all out, or opt for the cheaper options like hypergear and so on. It's either a one or the other type scenario which I've always found interesting on the GT3071 as it's not a common choice and that's the only logical reason I can see really as otherwise, it's a great turbo for the price.

The thread you have used as "evidence" of a thread with the "big GTR boys" proves nothing to aid you unfortunately. All it proves the turbo's are identical. The GT-SS's are identical to the Garrett -9. Have you even seen GT-SS's part number? I have, given i own a set. It's 707160-9 - What is that the same part number as I wonder? There are minor, and I stress the word minor, differences between the GT3071 and the 2835. Now, the discussion here is the GTX3071, which is going to better turbo than the GT3071, Garrett have shown it to be such already via the compressor maps. To say they are outlandish statements is a bit ignorant. The results are different yes, and they are minor. Does it attract the price tag difference? Thats upto the owner. However now with the GTX3071 on the scene, the general consensus is that the 2835 'premium' no longer applies given the GTX3071 will be dead on if not infront even with the off-set housing sizes. Obviously results will prove this either way, but this isn't a new Billet/Precision turbo where no-one has seen any info. We already have the GT3071 to base things off. What you also seem to not take into account is an external factor. The 2835 carries a hefty price tag and people purchasing such a turbo generally have the best of the best given cost is clearly no object for their aim. This can, and most certainly will, have an effect on end results.

Right hand corner - "view new content". Right next to the guidelines/RSS feed

That thread kinda proves that HKS = Garrett = same same. Especially when they are identical items... Any differences then come down to the car itself and the mods/tune.

Does that mean we can start GB list 2 now?

Mine should have cleared mate by now, can you confirm for me?

Just get onto a supplier, some stuff is cheaper - some stuff just isn't. NFI what governs pricing, but its likely as a GTR was sold here (32) they are putting it up. They weren't locally delivered there so perhaps not so much profiteering going on. I mean just for a CAS, there is a $400 "Nissan" markup over what Mitsu charge them for it

locally you can't get them that cheap, Nissan Aus i don't believe have altered pricing. For some odd reason, Nissan US have some items much cheaper in some instances.

He said the turbo... nothing about the gate/manifold etc which is what i said in the rest of my post... if its just the turbo, as stated, then the rest of my post covers that too.

If ya have the manifold and gate, then yeah not a bad option for the price. especially if your aim is to get rid of stock turbos and have a nice responsive replacement. otherwise if you don't ... then GTX3076 + manifold/gate IMO. Or go twins. Twins workout cheaper slightly.

This exactly. You've purchased stuff backwards. Replace the coils first, if issues persist then use the DLI

look at the for sale section? there are always plenty in there

For less than half price - of course they are a knockoff If the price is too good to be true, it probably is. Especially when its an Aussie product...

Please read the 26 dyno results thread. there are plenty of results in there to view. there is also a 15+ page thread on these turbos. the norm is 380-400rwkw on pump 420-440rwkw on E85 others have said, those injectors are ridiculously big for PULP. 800cc are fine. thanks.

nope, there is no pattern. probably just Google-ing pictures and MMS's them.
