They has less blades with the lower blades removed. I believe it should work well as there are less weight and more passage space.

Its very interesting thou. This type of design was made and used many years ago before the current upper and lower bladed comp wheel was introduced..

So do they have more blades or less? Can someone confirm?

Are they same sorta thing as the GTX40/42/45 turbos that they already sell?

Any significant difference in price for the average Joe?

For those sizes they generally have 12 blades as in 6 tall and 6 short. The one I've seen has only 10 tall blades. I wanted to buy one of those for the ceramic bb turbo that I'm currently working on. Been quoted $1600 just for a comp wheel. Price might come down when its more commercially available.

Have you tried the billet ones on fleabay? Always wondered if they were any good...

    • It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.
    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.
