dump pipes are off the turbo's yes. I recently bought some HKS split dumps. Most people have that type, but a few also have the trust dumps which are longer, so that wastegate gasses don't mess with turbine gass flow as much...

Are they in a kit that includes gaskets, crush washers etc?

Mick from Signature (0403 215 300) also fabricates a great set of dump pipes, I should have a set on my car in the coming months.

Give him a call and check them out. He always tests all his designs and fabrications for improvement.

i was under the impression that the HKS ones are not long enough in the seperation part....Trust styled ones apparently work a lot better. anyone confirm this?

CES appaerently makes good dump/front pipes. but it is VERY expensive. not mentioning the effort of taking the turbos off.

Yup, fitting the dumps is a pain in the ass. Labour will cost you nearly as much as the dumps themselves unless you are going to do it yourself. I fitted the HKS ones to my old GTR when I had the engine out modifying the sump. I definately noticed the difference in response with them fitted. The TRUST ones are supposed to be better again.

So glad to be away from the cost of the GTR :dry:

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
