just an update on the performance on these parts,

i got dyno info from a customer with a r33 gtst today, and after replacing the stock dump/front pipe and cat with the split dump/front pipe and catco metal cat, he got a increase of 32kw @ wheels. thats an excellent power gain, and it shows that our figures with the r32 gtst were also tested correctly, as we got an increase of 26kw @ wheels on our r32 gtst test car.

cheers

Is the only difference between the R33 and R34 pipes length? and how much difference in length is there?

I bought an R33 split dump a while back from you for a Stagea, and it does fit, but is a little too short, plus the stagea has the bracket that supports the pipe from the gearbox.

thank you for the payments guys. could all in the list who are still going ahead with the GB organise your payment to be sent by friday this week. this way most pipes will be sent out next week.

beastien,

hi yes the length is different (r34 is longer), about a 20-30cm difference, and also the pipe curves differently toward the cat and the cat side flange comes on at a different angle. the r34 pipe also has a bracket welded to it, whereas the r32/r33 pipe doesnt.

cheers

Cheers mate, sound like the R34 pipe wouldn't fit at all then, might just have to get mine lengthened a bit, it's only short by about 20-30mm.

SKY 34,

If you have purchased a cat, the cats come with 3" gaskets, so you would use them for the front pipe side and for the cat-back side. The turbo gasket is not supplied, but 95% of the time the original nissan gasket is re-used unless its leaking or not in good cond.

cheers

    • New R34 owned here (from the US) and found a gem, '98 GTT with ~6k miles, super clean & completely stock. When shifting there's no grinding, shifts smooth, etc. The concern I have are 2 things: 1) Only in 2nd and 3rd... when maintaining a slower speed (in traffic as an example) as I let off/on the gas, the shifter will slightly move and vibrate. If the clutch is engaged, none of this happens. It's not bad, but enough to feel like something isn't necessarily right. 2) This mainly happen in 4th or 5th... the shifter slightly bounces up and down, almost like it's riding on unbalanced tires (and I do think the tires are unbalanced as I get a little of that bounce feel at higher speeds, which is maybe why it only happens in 4th/5th). Lastly, and sorry for this noob question but I want to work on this car myself, can someone teach me some on these manual transmissions? Like servicing them, best products to use, etc.; would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
    • Coilovers aren't even the first step. Bushes, subframe position and alignment, HICAS elimination, adjustable upper arms and traction arms in order to dial out understeer. All these things need/deserve attention first. ARBs (There's no such thing as a swaybar. Please, everybody, stop calling them that) are useful if you want to limit spring stiffness. Otherwise you can control body roll with springs. Spring and damper rates are a function of road surface, speed and usage. There is no solution that works for all cases.
    • Define "nothing". Is the starter spinning but not the engine? Engine turning but not firing? If the engine is turning but not firing, then you are missing either fuel or spark. You need to find whichever has gone missing.
    • Shitbox Tiguan updates, got the APR OTS tune put back on (no charge for it to be removed/added back), didn't want to just come in just for that (not a fan of wasting people's time for nothing) so I purchased an APR dog bone insert. The boys at German Performance Garage said they would fit it for free too since they had 1x hoist free. Now that's service you don't normally get from most workshops. Anyhow, tune back on, snow grate pulled out, dog bone insert back in and not going to lie, a few smiles when I nailed it around the industrial area heading back onto the M7. Amayama also said 1 to 2.5 month wait for the RB25DE heater hose, yeah why not, car has been off the road for nearly 3, what's a other 2.5?
    • Hmm I'm going to approach this from the other side... What is the car doing that you don't like or what would you like the car to do that is currently isn't doing (handling wise that is)
