I bought a HKS item a while ago - it's adjusted to 2 deg (I think) and proved itself by changing the driveability of the car, bringing on the boost a bit harder and earlier than before..

A gear is just a gear - as long as it has a reliable connection to the shaft and reliable locking once adjusted - I'd say wait and go the US ones for the $$.

My 2 cents..

Cam,

I guess the flipside of that is branding. People know Trust is good. When you sell your car and you say it's got Trust this and Apexi that, people know it's good stuff. I'm not saying that Uncle Sam's gears are any less good but at the end of the day, if people don't recognise the brand, they'd be tempted to choose the known brand over the unknown. That branding comes at a cost however and in car bits it's no different to clothing/shops/companies and practically everything else.

On top of all that, there's the old adage which car modifiers everywhere can't escape: -

Rice, rice baby! :P

Personally, I like the blue gears as they match my Trust I/C boost piping!

Cheers!

For those interested and just to confirm PM's.

There are two options:

1. Wait for Steve at SST to get his US gears @ $150

2. Trust gears are 12,000 Yen + Shipping (about $190 - $200)

Gears are available for SR20DET as well as RB25DET,RB26DETT and RB20DET (I believe the Skylines all fit the same gear)

PM me if you want in on a Trust gear(s) by Thursday 16/10/03.

TRUST SCHMUST

US gears will do for me

i think that will be a nice addition to the new r33, will just need a front mount after that and for once i would have carried out all the mods i wanted to do to the white one

cant wait steve
