Remember OPINION isn't FACT...

There are part numbers on the picture of the core so why dont you check facts rather than voicing opinions. Facts with cause me the all the issues not opinions once they go on my engine

haha I have no idea why some guys are saying they aren't 2835s?? They seem to be guessing based on one known set of 2835 with different housings. Definitely NOT 2530, or 25 anything. The rear wheel is 10 blade with pitch that looks EXACTLY like a GT30 based wheel - although cropped to 56mm.

Which is what a 2835 is. These just appear to have different housing - perhaps earlier (or later) models?

I trust you aren't talking to me with this rant? I'm helping you out here.

Cause all I've given you is facts, my only opinions such as I've given previously eg. "looks like" are stated like that because of my uncertainly of YOUR measurements.

I'm in the business of measurements and I see people FARK up all the time. You'd be amazed how much an effect preconceptions and subjectivity can have on objective measurements. ie. FACTS aren't always facts.

You measured the wheels both exducer and inducer - if the measurements are the same as 2835's - the link I gave you with FACTS. Actually measurements to within 0.1mm.

Then count the blades on the rear = 10 (25 series have 9 blades)

Then see that they are badged at 2835. Now nothing is certain in this world, not even Newtonian physics, but I'd be pretty damn sure they are 2835. Even if they aren't the blade charaterisctics of size, pitch and number of blades ensures they will behave like a 2835.....unless they are Chinese copies made from balsa wood.

Wow not sure why so many people don't believe they are 2835's I am positive they are, I have seen these turbo's before though they were made in limited numbers. I am sure they flow less than GT-RS. HKS rated them at like 760hp so between 2540 & GT-RS on a 26 you wont see any boost till 4500rpm.

On the right motor (rb30/26) they would be fine for street/track.

Reading through all posts I think most had never heard of the low mount 2835 kit hence assumptions were made. Others just tried to enforce an opinion based on the persons profile status, anyway no harm no foul. OP don't take offence bud there is some good advice offered here, if you need to spend more money to get these operational than a better performing (brand new turbo) why would you?

So how will these perform. Iv got a built bottom stock top? Iv been in a gtrs equipped car and it was laggy as shit. But gave a decent wack

They will be very laggy, being as they need a lot of money to get going you would be better off buying a set of working -5s, you will make similar power as you probably won't be able to push the 2835s that hard where as the -5s will come on sooner with less lag. They also won't need new piping etc like going a single will.

I would say you have it there mate "laggy as shit" you need head work (porting)and cams to be able to live with them on the street. The GT-RS has a smaller zorst wheel so may be more responsive than these but are rated higher hp from HKS. That would give a good indication as to why these were never made in large quantity's.

Not to bad. Mid 300's i seemed to see a bit of. Is that their flow limit? What the max ppl have gotten out of them?

400s, and they will look and fit much nicer than a big single, I think they will suit your goal better than anything else, also quite well priced.

    • Yea that's a fair assumption. I'm presuming they call them solid lifters as they have no moving parts like hydro lifters. 
    • I believe you're confusing WMI with water injection. Looking at that graph, the 93aki+WMI car is making more power than C16 race gas. Boost juice, which is what I also run, is Snow Performances 50/50 premix. 
    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
