on the HKS website it still says it comes as a kit, but I think the Kai version is now using the twin scroll version...

slight power increase going by what the translated HKs page says...

I have a used HKS2835pros turbo for sale with exhaust flange if your interested

The 2835 has always confused me slightly, its seems so close to the GT-RS that its place in the market isn't really required? They share the same compressor wheel, with a slightly bigger rear housing correct? Obviously HKS's graph proves the difference between the kits is minimal, to say the least.

I would actually say by looking at the graph that the GT-RS is redundant...

But also the difference between the pros and kai is pretty much nothing in performance, the kai should whistle like a bitch with that front cover though

The Pro S is close to the RS, but seems to have a marginally bigger top end. It is squeezing in between the RS and the 3037 in the HKS range. All three have been around now for quite a few years.

The Pro is the difference, external WG etc etc.

Not sure if you can still get the Pro now though?

I agree, judging by the graph the GT-RS should be dead in the water.

As far as I know no one is doing a "T3" flanged twin scroll twin integral gate turbo so far .

I doubt this situation will last forever since Mitsy has done so well with turbos like this , except in their own flange pattern . Actually HKS is now doing a bolt on BB TS TIG turbo for the Evos 4-9 and its supposed to be a nice if expensive unit .

It looks to me like Garrett is being left behind with wheel designs and trims and it remains to be seen if they'll do anything about it . Slightly larger wheels and or smaller trims is working better for the other turbocharger manufacturers and when you throw in TS turbine housings and port shrouded compressor housings they can be wider ranging things .

You wouldn't happen to know if there's any difference in specs? Externally it just looks like there's anti surge slots, and that's about it!

Assuming you are friends with the OP, did the KAI come with a dump or is it an OEM bolt up scenario?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
