Any info you can give us on the camera setup? Is it a lipstick camera inputted to a digi cam? I have been looking for a setup for track days, scrutineers are getting pretty strict with installs these days so if you can get that quality out of a lipstick camera i would love to hear about it

I don't know what a 'lip stick' camera is, forgive my ignorance.

Nonetheless, the camera I used was just an ordinary still shot camera in video mode. I merely wrapped cloth tape (VERY sticky sticky tape) around the camera and steering column to ensure it doesn't move around, simple as that.

Cheers.

in a nutshell:

the gtrs is a re badged garet 2871 series housing

the 2835 pro s is a re badged garret 3071... i.e. bigger

the gtrs lines up with the stock dump pipe

2835 needs a custom job, or if bought in a kit comes with its own dump pipe.

the 2835 will net you 30rwkw odd more for roughly 1k more

BUT... its been said on here a few times that the gtrs is for those who want to fry every gear and the 2835 is for those that want to be able to get their power to the ground.

both fun options... i went for the 2835.... (still waiting to install it tho) :D

Thats interesting... The 2835 is usually considered to be a relatively lag free turbo...

i have the HKS 2835 PRO S on my rb20, only just put it on an still have to get it tuned but dam, makes 3 psi at 3k lol full boost at around 4.5k, its slow but has a bit of kick at the end, nothing like the

vid, very impressive mate

nice setup !!! money well spent if you ask me.

i found a guy who has a hks gtrs turbo on you tube if any one is interested in see it..

post the link dude :P

in regards to the above you tube links.

im not real sure what you guys see in the gtrs.

have you not been in anything faster?

it makes lots of wooshing noises but dosent seem to pull very hard.

you may say im full of shit but i know what my wifes car is capable of and that gtrs has nothing on the muppet bus.

i think the car above in question has lots of mods and a hell of a lot of money thrown at it , yet it struggles to make the wheels chirp as it ramps onto boost in second. wheres all the midrange? for dollars spent it should spin to the limiter when you floor it in second, but it dosent.

Yeah thats a fairly good point, if thats in 2rd - mine gets a lot more savage than that and romps through second. Makes the pretty noises too, but probably a fair bit cheaper setup - and only running conservative boost.

The GT2835 vid posted in this thread sounds like it'd give it a spank :thumbsup:

Heres a clip with mine when I got the internally gated housing, before I got the boost controller for it:

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
