Hi there

My beautiful GT-SS kit arrived today but the turbos themselves dont have the usual HKS stamping on the housings that you see on 2530 etc. Is that normal?

I just want to make sure ive got the right part number.

I got p/n G17200-N48010-00 Turbocharger Full Assembly

Has anyone else with the above kit got this part number?

Thanks

they are definately not the HKS turbos. there have been reports of people OS selling different garret turbos as HKS ones.

Just kidding. I have seen SS that do not have the HKS stamped into the casting. don't worry about it :D

The Turbo kit was $2550 to buy and all up, $2830 delivered to my door with Nengun repacking the box to hide large HKS stamping on the boxes.

Cheapish at the moment

Hmmmmm... at that price it's a toss up between the GTSS and Garrett -5s bought from CRD for me...

to skip taxes you can always request the "gift" amount to be under 1000 on the EMS certificate that they use to send them to us :( cheap but can be costly if they go missing

sorry to hijack your thread :(

man...can u clarify that a bit more?

where to get the EMS certificate?

coz i bought my nismo clutch from nengun, and aus custom held it and made me pay nearly $500 on duty and tax

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
    • Hey mate, really appreciate the help. Have been looking pretty extensively myself and was certain they were retro fitted, but then ended up finding a 4 door with what looks like the same side skirts or at least the closest I’ve seen.
