is there a reason more people dont use this compressor wheel for twin applications??

it spools better than the -10s with more top end than the -5s

also seems better on the surge line compared to the gtx2863????

Gav any news?

Funny you should ask. These were released in the USA this week and I have a pair of these bad boys (GTX2863R) on the way to me as we speak.

I'll swap over my existing turbine housings, so exhaust fittment should be OK. There will be some cut and shut work on my HKS hard pipe induction kit required, however as the GTX terbs use straight hose connections in and out of the compressor housing rather than the bolted flanges. Ordered the new adjustable actuator brackets along with the new Garrett 22psi actuators.

Also need to upgrade my injectors yet again as the HKS 1000cc units are maxing out with E85. Time for some ID 2000 units I think.

Hope to have Xspeed start on the job late next week with hopefully a comparison graph available the following week.

Watch this space.

Hope those springs you're talking about are soft ones... For the rear of the car mate... ;)

Strong ones for cams :)

I've done some modifications to the rear end now and it grips a lot better, might go ET streets as well this year!

:) Yeah I knew you meant cams, I was just stirring you up.. I know how GTR's with grip annoy you. ;)

So how long till they offer these to be direct fit.....

Probably never as the market for BR26 applications is declining obviously.

However, you can order the turbine covers seperately. As stated only the compressor inlet and outlet use slip on hoses rather than bolted flanges

Might be worth welding on 90 ally bends to the outlets gav, I'm having constant issues with the flex from 90deg silicon bends :thumbsup:

Just arrived - maybe first pair in Oz?

Hopefully new design actuator brackets will make life easier on the install

Difference with 2530s is usually 20-40rwkw so for that it would be worth it if someone was wanting a little more than -5s - but as a non HKS rape price.

Wouldn't this be a reasonable solution to that issue?

Very interested to see the result, though I don't have my breath held for anything amazing, none of the GTX results so far have excited me - the best ones I have seen so far are almost as good as the Precision/ForcedPerformance equivalents which have been around for a few years. Would be nice to be surprised, though!

    • From my bolts, standard M8 with 1.25mm thread pitch (M8x1.25mm).    Length is 19mm under the head and has a captive 18mm OD flat washer.   20mm length from a bolt shop is what you'll be able to get.   Make sure they're zinc plated.    If you're concerned about strength, grade 8.8 will be more than enough. Original PN is 01121-04971.  Now discontinued according to Amayama but that's because it's one of the parts that's been captured by the Heritage program, which explains the ridiculous price.   New PN is 01121-RHR20: https://nismodirect.com/nismo-heritage-bolt-pin-hinge-hood-bnr32-nissan-skyline-gt-r-01121-rhr20-01121-04971/ About AUD33 converted from Yen in the above link but that's just one example. Interesting that the hinge-to-body bolts are still available non-heritage.....PN 08116-8161G around $2 each (amayama).    Same thread but 16mm long.
    • Well, if that filter was impeding fluid flow, then it could have similar effects to faulty solenoids. The TCU will register a fault when it does something (ie, changes the state of a solenoid) and does not detect the required result. If there are other causes that can make the same lack of result, then they will be indistinguishable to the expected cause for which the TCU has a code.
    • Yellowjackets, red ones, blue ones (other than Splitfire) have all been demonstrated to be unreliable on turbo engines. That unreliability can be anything from outright failure (ie, 4 out of a set of 6 working out of the box) to just not being strong enough for the task, on a boosted engine. Not enough of us care about NA engines to know whether that unreliability is an issue for the undemanding needs of an NA RB20. I should think though that the DIS-008 should fit the 20. There's not really any reason for the head/coil mounting area to be any different on those 2 Neos. I wouldn't be buying Splitfires, or any other old tech coilpack, for a car in this day and age though. I would buy modern pencil coils and do what needs to be done to adapt them to the loom. That's relatively trivial these days, with numerous kits for fitting R35, or Audi, or Yaris/Corolla coils.
    • Keen to see how much work is needed to get an abandoned Skyline going. My R32 has been sitting idle for three years or so but finally got some time to get it going again. (Also lurking SAU and trying to hit 10 posts so I can start my own intro thread with pics)
    • Hi. Which coilpacks can i use in my engine? I looked at the Splitfire but the closest "match" i found was SP-DIS-008 but even that they do not show RB20DE NEO so iam not 100% sure. Or maybe different one which will 100% work? I saw many on ebay but they are some cheap "strange" ones. What about Yellow Jackets? Many thanks 🙂
