hey mate the hks 2530 is pretty much a re branded garrett 2860 and garrett are a bit cheaper and alot easier to come by the only diffrence is the hks spools a little bit quicker but not much youll bearly notice..

unless your looking at getting the 2530 external gated then ignore all above haha

Ahk thats good to know, yer im looking at getting the hks 2530 with external gate, just trying to keep everything the same? Whats the difference between external and internal gate, as far as installing wise and stuff? I take it the garet 2860 is internal gate?

Yer the garrett is internal, is this for a gtr? so twins? or just single?,,,the 2860 -7,-5,-10 turbos and yes there in that order smallest to largest there a turbo made by garrett for the gtrs they have the t25 flanges so there a direct bolt on to the stock manifold..as for the diff between internal and external waste gates im still fairly noobish but as far as i know an internal gated turbo has an inbuilt waste gate and actuator on the turbo, a external gated turbo the waste gate is fitted to the manifold as apose to being on the turbo it self, as for the fitting for an external gate if its for a single set up youll need a custom manifold with a tial vband for the waste gate the be placed your better off talking to 6boost about this stuff because its there bread and butter and i have yet see a better made manifold youll find them in the buisness section

Whats the difference compared to hks2530

hardly any. responsive 250rw

Actually the difference is in the detail, it's defnately not as direct fit as a hks2530 in the fact it has a 3" inlet compared to the hks Oem/direct fit intake, also the 2871R is marginally less responsive but produces higher output...

Comes down to the following, wheels sizes/trim & housing a/r...

Hks2350 .60/.64 smaller wheels

Gt2871r .60./.86 larger wheels

GT2871r rated to 390hp(48 trim) or 440hp(56 trim) is closer to the GT-RS from the hks family...

A garrett gt28rs (rated to 350hp) is as close as youll get to a gt2530/gt2535 from hks that your looking for...And at around $1400 or so new is really hard to argue with asits brand new with warranty. Just make sure you specify to the supplier you a after the skyline oem t3 6 bolt rear housing...

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
