His tactics are a bit BS.. The auctions list as a GT35/40 but if you read it close it does say a T25/T28 flange, which means its probably a GT30 compressor and the dead giveaway is just the picture of the exhaust wheel. Its super tiny like a standard T25/T28 50mm. A true GT35r is like 68mm exhaust wheel in a T3 or T4 exhaust hosuing.



SSauto GT35/GT40 nothing.. GT40 about it..?? lol

Note how small the exhaust wheel is.



A GT35R T3 flanged.

Seriously? I'd love to see someone prove that, but until then I don't buy it.

I really like your website, I've been researching Lexus' a little bit and my mom just bought a 2000 GS300 or somethin like that.

The dealer tried to tell me it was FWD, then my dad chimed in and said it was FWD...but I'm like look guys, I'm staring the crank pulley right in the face, the exhaust manifold isn't on the front or rear of the engine, and there's no transmission hanging off the side of the motor.

Anyway I look forward to reading some of your articles, maybe you'll see me posting in your forums.

Thanks everyone. The question i have for SSAC is that why do they advertise 82 mm infact its only 76mm and why do they advertise its BRAND NEW but infact its used and recondition. I guess most buyers never question their specs and advertisements. I would give them more credit if they stated its recondition turbo with 76mm. Lying is a terrible thing.
