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.

fixed :huh:

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

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
