Nah GT2560-9s... the -7s are more like N1s

+1 for that. the -9 seems to be very similar to the GT-SS in power and response etc.

The -7s are definitely the N1 turbos. -5s more like HKS2530s...

Check out this link: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/tbroom/Turbos.htm. Some very good info on there.

However, apparently the -9s don't come with actuators which have to be purchased separately.

Apparently Garrett don't sell many of them, mainly selling -5s and -7s to GTR owners (Possibly because of the common misconception that the -7s are GT-SS equivalents on top of not having the actuators?).

When I asked overseas the answer came back that the 707160-9 turbo was what HKS sell as a GTR spec GTSS .

Just recently Garrett updated there web page to show two "GT2859R" turbo variants , the first being the 707160-9 and the second I think the same one but with actuators provided .

If you look at their web page it shows the same 446179-65 cartridge used in both so I suppose we assume they are the same turbo .

Cheers A .

I would be more looking at this one: http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarre...9R_707160_9.htm

They are supposed to be a splitting image of the R34 GTR turbos, so worst comes to worst you can use the stock actuators on them.
