  1. That's awesome to hear, thats how much boost I plan to run down the track, hopefully not too far ahaha..... How long have you been running that setup?
  2. Hmmm I see, so regarding high boost they are both on the same standard roughly? I just don't want to get an OEM gasket then have it start leaking again when I ramp up the boost. That's definitely planned, every stud, bolt and nut will be getting replaced for the exhaust side Not too keen on the permaseal, from what I've read their quality is not as good as OEM. Yeah I will be getting a set of OEM exhaust mani studs at the same time and the rest of the studs and bolts/nuts anndddd a machining if need be...
  3. Car : Skyline R32 GTS-4 4-Door So an exhaust leak has appeared in my rb20det, to be honest unsure whether it's the exhaust manifold gasket (half are studs and half are bolts :?) or turbo outlet gasket (only sporting 3 out of the 6 bolts and studs. So im planning to replace all the gasket around the turbo and exhaust mani at the same time. So I'm swinging between either buying a few Cometic gaskets to cover my needs??? or buying a full complete OEM gasket kit (I know I don't need them all but its just as cheap)??? This car has been getting built for a few years now, so I do plan to get some power into her. I already have a cometic triple layer steel head gasket and arp head bolts. Basically my question is, if I plan to run say about 18-20+ pound of boost in the near future, which gaskets would hold the boost more efficiently and more safely? 'Cometic or OEM'?? I have done a Google Search and what not, but didn't really get the info I needed. Thanks people

  5. Thanks GTSBoy, I was considering that as an option but being one of the few 4 door GTS4's, I'd like to keep it with the factory options and what not. Haha, I love every moment being inside this car my car
  6. Hey all I need a little help... I have a R32 GTS-4 and I need to get new "rear inner rack ends/tie rods". In short I've found these rear tie rods on GKTech, but I am not 100% sure they will fit. If I'm correct the GTS-4 has the same tie rods/rack ends as a GTR? They say compatible with r32 GTST and GTR, so I shouldn't have a problem here right? Thank you in advance for the help LINK FOR THE REAR TIE RODS http://www.gktech.com/index.php/s13-180sx-r32-hicas-tie-rod-set.html

In short I've found these rear tie rods on GKTech, but I am not 100% sure they will fit. If I'm correct the GTS-4 has the same tie rods/rack ends as a GTR? So these ones should fit either way?

    This is when she was on the road before all this work was started.

    After being in need of a new air filter, due to the K&N being 5+ years old. I started trolling the net once again, I saw an article saying that Autosalon had tested some '3A racing' pod filter so time back now with results confirming it had better airflow *cfm* than K&N and all your other expensive brands. So I purchased one a nice red one to help start the red theme.

    Off with the front bar, bonnet and blinkers, so much easier to work on.

    Purchased some autocool warehouse radiator *ebay*, after reading a few reviews. Decent build quality for the price, looks good. Bought some bottom radiator rubbers and slid the radiator straight in. Nice Fit. Decided the radiator hoses could do with an upgrade too. Just a nice clean set of red hoses should do the job nicely. A start to the red and purple theme, sexy yet aggressive.
