guys what is the main diff between the 2 turbos below:

HKS - GT Sports Turbine Kit - 2835

HKS - Turbo Kit - GT-RS -

now why i ask is apprantly there both rated at 400ps.

so yeah me confused.

anyhelp would be good ;)

thanks in advance

Actually both use the Garrett 71mm GT35 BCI 18 series compressors in 52 trim though optional on 2835's 48 and 56 trims .

Main difference is the turbine , GT-RS is the fancy name for a Garrett GT2871R with the middle or 52 trim compressor . All 3 2871 cartridges use the 53.8mm GT28 turbine in 76 trim (NS111 type) . Also avail in 48 and 56 trims .

HKS GT2835 and some Garrett GT3071R's (WG type) same cartridges use a 56.6mm cropped GT30 UHP turbine .

The theory is larger turbine makes for better "balance" of compressor to turbine size ratio .

Make careful note that HKS generally stick to smaller trim compressors than Garrett do - the result is better response or lower boost threshold if you like .

As for the 400PS , the GT-RS would be on its knees from a turbine inlet (back) pressure point of view .

PM me if you want all the numbers n bits n pieces .

Cheers A .

GTRS's on gtr's are capable of much more than 300awkw. how ever were talking about just a single turbo kit.. the disco potato is a GT28rs rated between 320 and 350 from memory and they are a excellant turbo for a sr20 for response

from memory there was someone of the forum makeing 270rwkw in a 33 gtst with a hks gtrs and suitable mods to go with it

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
