was after some opinions on screamer pipes. currently i have a hks style split turbulence dump on there at the moment, but i am going to higflow the turbo, so i was wondering would it be beneficial to have a screamer or just keeping the one i got?? i am not really that concerned with the legality of it either. just wanted to know if it will pick up a bit more power and whether it would sound good.

cheers

Mate screamer pipe is the way to go

i got my wastegate pipe in the Atmosphere and it sounds like a jumbo jet is comming,As for power it depends how restrictive your exhaust is

what turbo and exhuast you running

Key difference you are forgetting

You are using a External Gate.

The starter of this thread, using an internal gate

Its like comparing apples and oranges, they might be fruit, but nowhere near the same as each other

I would doubt it will pickup power. And i doubt it will "sound good"

ive seen the light with internal gated screamers......

i gained power by plumbing it back up....... it also helped me clear my EPA notice too.... split is the way to go .. no doubt about it

screamers are fun, i loved the WTF expression id get when u'd open it up..... but robbed me of a fair bit of power........wont go back to screamer unless i have an external gate .. and 2 3/4 pipe sticking off it

split dump/front pipe - over 3" dump/front pipe????

split dump is the way to go. Causes less turbulance in exhaust gas flow when the exhausts from the gate re-enter and therefor improving flow/velocity. Most of the split dump pipes are calculated correctly with length etc to minimize turbulance and maximize flow and velocity, which is what you want.

was yours a standard turbo? or was it one of the ones with the split section for the wastegate like the HKS ones?

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      I was using the wiring diagram I have So 12.74V is coming into the rear Fuel Pump relay as I measured.  When I turn the key to ON im getting 0.6V to the Fuel Pump plug; which i assume is backfeed voltage and doesnt include the 12V from ignition power.  The rear relay is working and being triggered.  From the diagram I clearly see the rear relay 80 = Rear Relay going into the Body/H loom (R-27) 27 = Fuel Pump plug going into the Body/H loom (T-20) 40 = Short Connector (R-27) I'm reading 12.74V on the blue/black wire which is the power for the Fuel Pump   From this diagram I can see the Ignition relay goes into the front and up to the ignition  2 = Fuel Pump Relay <1M> (R-27) 37 = ING Relay <1M> I started from the pump using this reference Which the way I read it (referencing Nissan wiring color codes) is: Pin Wire Color Function 1 B/P (Black/Pink) Ground 2 L/W (Blue/White)        ECU Trigger 3 SB (Sky Blue) Fuel Pump 5 L/B (Blue/Black) 12V Constant Tested SB to SB on Fuel Pump for continuity - confirmed Tested negative on Fuel Pump to 12V battery and L/B - confirmed 12V Pulled the relay putting 12V between Pin 1 & 2 and testing continuity on Pin 3 & 4 - confirmed relay   So that has me looking at this part of the circuit to understand whats happening here...and im still confused. From best I can tell; the disconnect is back to my previous diagram; between Ignition Relay and Fuel Pump Relay...which yet again; afaik is where the immobiliser should.    Thats what I was trying to explain to GTSboy; im not trying to fix it myself; yet I seem to have to get a Masters in Electrical Engineering (while im busy doing my actual job of DevOps & Cloud Engineering) somehow.  I just wanted more expert opinions; or more so that what I tested is correct and proves it to something around that area; to go back to the alarm tech (for a 3rd time) that he needs to fix it. He keeps telling me its not the alarm. He lives on the complete other side of the city so i understand not wanting to make a trip but as I said before if its the alarm it should be up to him to fix it. But he's adament its not; even though I pointed out the FP was immobilised through the original alarm. To my mind; it seems that the ECU is sending the signal; but the ignition is not getting 12V down the line.

      Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Duncan · Posted

      I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'
