Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!!

Finally the mods are starting to get fitted, its more exciting than xmas ...just one more sleep :) .

The hi flo turbo and rest of the zorst is being fitted tommorow but something is bugging me, shouldnt i really be upgrading the exhaust manifold too? how restrictive is the stock one? has anyone replaced theres (apart from the hi mount turbo guys) ?

Cheers

stock manifolds are excellent bits of kit, good for 300rwkw i think i read.

No doubt, your stock one will be cracked. They almost all are, thats cast iron for ya.

300Rwkw?? thats impressive, ok so no point spending the extra bux on that then

Cheers

was chasing a quote on the manifold, before i posted ...just had the call back with the quote... $980 + fitting, is this a serious quote?? i could be nieve but this aint a HKS, Greddy etc brand and its a low mount not a hi mount with external wastegate mountings .....so is this a bit steep or what??

.... i told em i would leave it for now cheers for the previous info guys

Cheers

dont need a manifold lee, waste of time, and dont bother with the china rubbish either. a good trust one or something is over $1500 for the manifold plus fitting (for a highmount anyway), so i'd imagine low mount is same price roughly as its still the same amount of runners and flanges. save the cash and stocky will be fine :)

yeah i know... i argued with the guy over the phone then went to see what his was talking about, we even got the auto electrician to have a look to see if we could move the aircon pipe.

Turned out to be cheaper to just buy a new bell mouth dump pipe, if i hadnt seen it myself i would still be going off at the guy ...but there was no way it was gonna fit ... i was gonna try the force approach till he quickly reminded me i would probably break the line. :P

He did say it was possible part way thru production there way have been a change in the aircon design or manufacturer or of coarse mine may have been replaced/repaired ..who knows but that may have caused the problem.

Hopefully today it will all be done, and i have a spare one if anyone wants one :dry:

    • Anyone know anything about a r34 350z lsd diff conversion?.  I have 350z lsd conversion layin around and thought about chucking it in my r34 I got all the offset adapters but am having trouble figuring out on how to get a speedo reading. Any help would be appreciated thanks   (I have both speedo sensors from r34 and 350z)

    • Hmmm, seems like these things are car of the week....we bought a q50 Red Sport today too (ironically, the one I said a few posts above is probably dodgy  ) Goes good for a stocker. Brakes and tyres need doing all round and it is way overdue for an oil change, but it seems good otherwise. It was weird to be able to see (and even drive!) a car before I bought it, most stuff I get 2 or 3 grainy pics and an auction sheet I can't read, followed by a 4 month wait to see what I ended up with
    • I was able to improve to a 3:46.7 which was .5 slower than silver. I just couldn't do any better but then I was able to just link the sections so nicely and got a 3:44.6. stoked with that.  AMG around Barcelona looks good. I'll save that for the weekend.
    • hey GTSboy thanks for the quick reply. im on stock ECU  Surprisngly enough i unplug everything and replug everything, readings are still off but the car drove...ok haha So far this is what i have done. - Replaced ECU (still 1.5v) - Replaced Boost sensor (still 1.5v) Now the next thing i tried is to unplug the TPS and only plug in the Boost sensor to see if it reads 5v. No it still only read 1.5v.  Its a new boost sensor and i know i have 5v if i dont plug the sensor back in, so that means the power wire is good. So now im thinking that it might be a bad ground on the boost sensor plug.  on the FSM says the ground to the boost sensor is  a sensor ground, can i add a ground wire from the boost sensor ground wire to the the engine itself to ground it? or chassis?
