Being a noob i like the idea of the HKS kit as i know i'll have all the bits and pieces i need. I there a complete gasket/stud/nut etc installation kit for the garretts? Where from? Group buy has the garretts at $2150, and IIRC the HKS kit is over $3K.

garret tubos dont come with gaskets

My T04Z did.

Nothing else, but. Figure on a couple of hundred bucks plus whatever the aggravation's worth to you

for water and oil lines, then take a look at Nengun or Greenline or Perfectrun for a cheater price on the HKS kit.

Are the 2860-7 basically GT-SS equivalents? If I've done my currency conversion properly the GT-SS kit for a GT-R is about $A2.5k from Greenline...

With the 2860-5's that I'm installing, I went with the hks turbine gasket and bolt set from nengun, then just had to buy the exhaust manifold to head gaskets from nissan.

It would be just as easy to get the gaskets and bits you need locally as they wouldn't amount to a huge cost. All parts are stock items, just need to oval the bolt holes on the oil drains for the slightly wider spacings.

Err yeah, that's why i'm asking if there is a kit....

They're both 300/310hp turbos, so very similar AFAICT.

Nengun is the same for the base kit, but it comes to $3250 when you include delivery and the import duties.

Yeah my GT30 came with gaskets and i know others who get them too... some people obviously are unsure what they speak of :domokun:

There is no "kit" as such available. You need to buy everything like banjo washers etc

Yeah 2.5k from greenline is the purchase price, shipping, duties etc its 3k or there abouts.

im about to a set of 2860-7 myself, noticed kudo motorsports have a kit for these for couple hundred (gaskets, bolts/nuts)

is this all i need as I assume std oil/water lines are fine, main concern is dump pipes, any modification need to fit these..

still undecided on a/m dump pipes, have read hks ones are not so good, tomei's rule but expensive and few ppl have said stock dumps arent that bad.. 33GTR dumps are an option due to better design?

R33 dumps are an option, im using them on mine and ive been assured they will be fine when i chase more power, so i cant argue with the person who's done a number of tests in that area.

Oil/water bolt up no worries, the dumps dont need any mods either.

You just need new gaskets for everything, copper washers for the banjo's and that sort of thing. Nothing else really as they are a bolt on

i got my 2860-7s at GCG turbos they sorted out all of the relevant parts and gaskets for a reasonable price, also got their version of dump pipes which are split type for a good price. Just remind them that the o2 sensor fittings need a reducer for the r32.

    • Been over 2 months since I have done anything on the S15 and had a day off today so got stuck into mounting the radiator and intercooler. I ended up using factory bottom mounts as bolted in and I did order some gktech top brackets but didn't work with the PWR radiator so made up some with aluminium flat bar. Spent way to long on them but pretty happy how they are. Next job was the intercooler. Used some more aluminium flat bar and did the bottom mounts first. Top was easy as just one long piece and 2 90 degree coming off rad support and welded them on. The bumper support required some notching to let the outlets sit where I want so will add some reinforcement later to strengthen it. I have also bought ecu and waiting for it to arrive. Went with a Link g4x Xtreme but will be adding a ptmotorsport expander to add a few extra inputs over CAN. Went through a few different configurations on pclink to get what I want to allow future expansion for sensors and gearbox upgrades. Ordered gktech rear arms but looking at the hardrace lower control arms to have some extra adjustment too will see how the alignment looks after first setup. Got 2 more weeks of work before shut down and will have almost 4 weeks to work on this so planning on hopefully firing up mid January.   Also bought a 2015 brz with a heap of good gear, did noosa hill climb a month back. Owned it for 3 days changed alignment and sent it. Finished the weekend 2nd in class and only .3 off the 180sx best time last year. MCA Red coilovers, gktech rear lca, bolt on lock kit and tie rods, whiteline toe arms, cusco 1.5way diff and 4.5 ratio, endless brake pads, headers, exhaust, perrin intake and e85 tune. Electronic steering adjustment, nankang crs with koya wheels 17x9 +35. Have bought rear traction arm and relocation kit, extended studs and v3 tie rod kit. Planning on also getting flex tune as lucky to get 300km a tank with e85 and short ratio. Car is a heap of fun to drive and super easy to work on. AC in the line up at Noosa was mint in 35degree weather.
    • I'm 22 years younger than you mark, and I'm operating in the exact same way! Ha ha ha
    • All clamps are oem    one question is , what is the bit at the top on high pressure pipe where it connectes to intake manifold and other side goes toward the engine( see item in red circle in diabram attached)   ? Seen some people stating that should be removed on boosted application and skyline is boosted from manufacture so little puzzled. Mine is around 23pwi (700 hpish)   also some state it could be the bonjo bolt crash washer so bought two washers
    • what do you mean dead platform? People buy older, out dated and less power cars on "Dead platforms" for over $65k all the time.
    • That is really nice! Very nice finish when you have an oven to do the crinkling nice and evenly!
