Hey,

Have up for sale a GT2835 Pro S Full Bolt on kit for the RB25.

Decided it was time to pull it off and sell and shoot for 550HP this time, upon pulling it off i noticed that something had gone through the turbine and slightly bent most of the blades and the turbos bearings had started to become a bit noisy car was making 350HP.

Anyway the short of the story is that this turbo was sold to me as a GT3037 Pro S kit by JPS Trading in Japan, I bought a new turbine and shaft to find out it was the wrong size as the compressor and turbine wheels were different to the specs on the HKS USA website and matched the GT2835's specs exactally.

I remember the packaging stating that it was a GT3037 however there is NOTHING stamped anywhere on the turbo itself and the 2 look identical to each other (just ones a bit smaller than the other).

In short, I want $1200 for the kit.. Not to keen on offers as the turbo comes with intake piping to pod filter or standard airbox, plumback pipe from factory BOV, HKS Split dump pipe selling on ebay for $400 on their own which bolts up to ur factory front pipe, braided oil and water lines, silicone joiners, heat shield all nuts/studs and bolts. Only thing you need is your gaskets, this turbo also has all the anti surge crap as well that the garrett doesnt and a 10PSI Heavy Duty HKS Actuator.

The turbo seems just a little bit laggier than i remember it as i barley ever drive the car, however you can source the CHRA (Cartridge) from Garrett OR a Turbo Repairer P/N 700177-3 for about $800 - $1000 or try hammer out the turbine wheel and get it put on a VSR and balanced again (ovbiously once the turbo had been dissasembled and the shaft and turbine had been removed or just put it in and drive. :) ..

Id do it myself and sell it as a kit on ebay however I just cant be bothered anymore Im also quite pissed off that I got sent the wrong turbo when i paid for the more expensive GT3037...

if you go down the path of the rebuild you end up with a rebuilt HKS turbo with all the bolt on accessories for about $2000 - $2200... not bad considering the kit new will cost you around $3600 if not more after postage and if trying to get an after market turbo fitted you can be charged up to $1000+ by the time they have removed and installed a new turbo and fabricated the piping and dump. This kit you can do in your garage on your own in less than a day.

Anyway what you see in the pics below is what you get..

Thanks for looking, kits also been listed on eBay.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
