just a quick question.Does anyone know if the hks gt-rs turbo with t3 flange a straight fit on the m35 stagea? :huh:

Not straight on, You may possibly be able to fit it in there, you would then have to make a custom manifold as the standard turbo is a completely different shape.

Then you could run silicone pipe on the the compressor side. A bit of stuffing around but I hope to do it myself once I build up a 3.5L block.

which means? :down:

I believe it means scotty nm35 has his first taker for the VQ35det group buy... :thumbsup:

Back on topic, it seems to mean that, no, the HKS GT-RS doesnot appear to be a direct fit.

The GT-RS fits nicely size-wise, but as Scotty said, a custom manifold is required.. not to mention the oil/water lines.

It will be a bit shorter than the M24N as well, so the stock dump will be no good - although I would safely assume that if you are putting a GT-RS in, you would also have a full exhaust :down:

Ah I wondered if the engine was the same enough to fit. I think the same thing is possible with the supercharger kit for the V35 skylines with the VQ35DE isn't it?

I like your thinking, a supercharged 4wd 3.5l stag would be quite a weapon. Might be easier/ cheaper to buy a PNM35 and s/c it? :D

Oh yeah, that might actually convince me to "upgrade" to an M35 :)

...that is, if I was convinced that the M35's auto gearbox could handle that sort of power :banana: I wonder how strong the ATTESA system is in the M35 as well?

It was posted a little while ago, but its a guy in japan that has fitted a GTRS to his VQ25DET

Full custom manifold and exhaust. - If I ever have to do turbo, I will go GTRS, it seems like a great match to the VQ25 even if its gonna take some playing about to get it in there!

HKS GT-RS is a garrett GT2871 (52 trim comp) in a HKS specific T3 turbine housing.

There is no reason local turbo shops couldn't machine the factory turbine housing to fit the turbine which would only leave the intake and oil/water lines to get sorted.

What?? Ruin a perfectly good GT-RS by hacking the standard turbine housing onto the back? :laugh: May as well just highflow.

Go the custom manifold! The standard one is crap.

That engine is one of the elusive VQ35DET's with AWD, I love mechanical porn. :)

umm...no. I didn't say hack up a HKS GT-RS.

I said it is a GT2871 (52 trim comp). So if someone wanted a close approximation then making a hybrid turbo out of a factory housing machined out to fit a GT2871 cartridge with the garrett compressor housing. It would make it easier to bolt up than the HKS unit as it would only require intake mods to make it fit.

My friends will make you a nice manifold for anyone wanting to do this!

if i had the coin i would get them to twin turbo it. i still want a manual behind it tho.

hmm... someone keeps telling me that an R34 Getrag 6 speed will fit... maybe you should try that ;)

i must have been living on a different planet, but did Getrag really make the R34 gearbox?

yerp they made the box for the r34, same as the box for the "indestructible" toyota supra minus the transfer

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
