Default New HKS GT SC

Here is a video of the new SC from youtube:

If you scroll down their page there is a translated description of the SC:

Still watching for more info but it looks like a better system then the Rotex one with more HP potential.
Have not been able to find a date for US release yet but it is definatly coming...

I dont think thats really the price, they had an article in Sport Compact Mag about it this month. They were saying no price has been set for the US but expect $6-7,000 installed.

somebody tell me the difference between this unit and a rotrex supercharger, the design looks identical

did anybody else notice that "Driving on the track under constant high load" voids the warranty, show's they really have faith in there product

This time there is a "tuner" kit and a promise of more power but no HP numbers on how much it can produce that I have been able to find at least.

i don't know about the hks 350z application, but the rotrex is silent on other applications. i've heard it on miata's, k20's, b18's, and a chevy pickup, twin sc's on the pick up, and i couldn't hear the supercharger on any of these.

I tried to direct you to the APS TT kit for the Z and a shop in Moscow that carries it. And I wrote in Russian not to complicate things for yourself.
