Hi there

My beautiful GT-SS kit arrived today but the turbos themselves dont have the usual HKS stamping on the housings that you see on 2530 etc. Is that normal?

I just want to make sure ive got the right part number.

I got p/n G17200-N48010-00 Turbocharger Full Assembly

Has anyone else with the above kit got this part number?

Thanks

they are definately not the HKS turbos. there have been reports of people OS selling different garret turbos as HKS ones.

Just kidding. I have seen SS that do not have the HKS stamped into the casting. don't worry about it :D

The Turbo kit was $2550 to buy and all up, $2830 delivered to my door with Nengun repacking the box to hide large HKS stamping on the boxes.

Cheapish at the moment

Hmmmmm... at that price it's a toss up between the GTSS and Garrett -5s bought from CRD for me...

to skip taxes you can always request the "gift" amount to be under 1000 on the EMS certificate that they use to send them to us :( cheap but can be costly if they go missing

sorry to hijack your thread :(

man...can u clarify that a bit more?

where to get the EMS certificate?

coz i bought my nismo clutch from nengun, and aus custom held it and made me pay nearly $500 on duty and tax

    • Ha ha, ended up going it alone.  I just sent it (in a very nervous fashion).  Once I'd released the locks and it didn't automatically start spinning out of control i felt a bit more confident.   It made some loud sounds (cracking and creaking noises) when I first spun it which got the heart rate going again!  I couldn't bring myself to leave it tipped on the side.  I feel a bit more comfortable having back right side up while it sits there. I'd get angry with your last point but you're 100% correct! 😅 Even yesterday I managed to distract myself at numerous times to make a bracket to fit an LED flood light off the back of the house and fix my sons pushbike.  There were other little taks nibbling at my brain for the rest of the day too...
    • Probably one of the more nerve wracking experiences of my entire life! 😂😂 The balance (centre of gravity) is out still but in a direction that gives me comfort!   It's quite bottom heavy still meaning it takes a bit of muscle to rotate it.  The plus side of that is that it wants to to go back to upright.  Better that than wanting to go all stranded turtle on me!
    • hmmm that's not ideal. This is a pretty new engine right, will be interesting if your engine guy has any theories about causes
    • A universal ball joint removal c press kit is better money spent and will work for the Hicas ball joints.  Here's a 45$ CAD Example. ATPEAM Heavy Duty Ball Joint Press Kit with 4WD Adapters | Professional 4 in 1 Ball Joint Press Removal and Installation Tool for Cars and Trucks | Universal Ball Joint Tool with Storage Case, Ball Joint & Tie Rod Tools - Amazon Canada
