Well it depends on what car you have but assuming rb20/25 yes it will work. You need a bracket for it to fit though.

The kinugawa option comes with a bracket but the actuator is pretty shitty

What's the point/idea/benefit behind changing to it?

[iruvyouskyrine]

You can change the springs to set the gate pressure at whatever you wish. If you want 15psi it's better to have a gate that has 15psi worth of spring in it than a standard nissan 5/10psi spring and a manual bleed valve.

I have a R34 GTR RB26 with HKS GT-SS and old rusted N1 internal wastage now... so I want a reliable replacement

[Blackkers]

Okay rb26 is different.

Forget the turbosmart model you listed.

You can buy Garrett adjustable actuators from GCG with 1 bar base setting. They are pretty affordable.

Don't bother buying HKS they aren't any better than the Garrett but cost more
