No, not really. Same could be said for some of your stuff which at times seems misguided. But lets not get picky eh?

It stands to reason that if not one person i know and many other users on this forum (so we arent talking about 5 cars here) dont have any issues what so ever...

And only you do/did/have/whatever a problem, and the manifold is but a band aid.

Be that tuning or other parts on the car that are causing your problem.

I dont believe in band aid fixes. I believe in fixing the problem at its cause.

It's not being picky, but just a response to a broard and sweeping statement from you that is not based on personal experience.

I'm speaking from personal experience with big low mount terbs - in particular the GT-RS units. MarkR34 fitted such a manifold to his R34 with GT-RS terbs fitted and the problem was almost eliminated. I did the same and achieved the same results.

Turbo shuffling isn't really a huge problem and does no real harm, it's just an annoying side affect of twin low mount terbs with large compressor wheels. The real "cure" (if you want to call it that) is to fit small compressor wheel units (or a single). Indeed I believe you are fitting GT-SS units?

I have 2 x 2860 or 2560 or whatever Garretts...(new name Vs old name), Power FC, cam gears (no cams), apexi intakes blah blah blah on an original build, standard slugs and rods. I get a very minor amount of surge but nothing like GTR.2NV is experiencing. I would be getting a power fc anyway, just to get the most out of the combo.

You mention the GT-RS, thats not what we are talking about, so you and markR34 are irrelevant to this thread in that he isnt using the big GT-RS's now is he?

If you re-read my statement which was quite particular and hardly broad at all considering i named the turbos, and the turbos are named in the first post, which arent large comp wheeled.

    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
