I am chasing a split front / dump pipe for a 33 GTS-t :) , which i have found a few but don't know which one to go for or what to look for when it come's to these.

The 3 that i have found are:

BOS Importing - $420 http://bosimporting.com.au/components/com_...d98e35fd871.jpg

AM Performance (ebay) - $360

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...bayphotohosting

Just Jap - $269

http://www.justjap.com/parts/new/exhaust/jjrsplitdumprb.jpg

I'm sorts leaning towars the AM or BOS one's as i have heard some not so nice stories about the Just Jap one.

Opinions and info would be great.

Same situation with hiflow cats as well.

I have the BOS Importing one. I think the design is very good. The construction (ie some of the welding / finishing) of it leaves a bit to be desired though, but nothing that would affect performance adversely.

i was in the same position not too long ago, after reading a few comments i decided to go with the BOS importing one, as i didnt have enough money to get it professionally installed i decided to give it a go my self, everything lined up 100% with no problems at all :(, the overall construction/welds on the split dump pipe was awsum and made a huge difference to my car, best mod iv bought yet ;)

I bought one of the JJR Stainless version for my R32 and the quality of the finish and welding is excellent.

Just Jap also guarantees the fit and warrants the product for 12 months.

Compared to the quality of the BOS versions that people posted in the thread recently, the JJR ones are MUCH better.

Check this thread for a good snapshot into peoples experiences with both the JJR and the BOS version

My 2 cents.

I don't like the wastegate merge point on the JJ or AM ones.

Bos importing looks fine. The CES dump pipe is also good BUT has a poor placement of the o2 sensor as the o2 sensors must be positioned upright.

been running full ces system for 2 years & had no dramas[good performance gains]

The CES is a top quality design according to their pics on the web site.

Does yours have the o2 sensor mounted upside down?

Apparently its a big no no for o2 sensors as water sits in them when upside down. I can't remember the exact specs but its supposed to be something like no more than 25-30degree's angle from upright.

Any fuel consumption problems? Getting more than 12-13L/100km's?

Sorry to high-jack your thread uras 33.

Is anyone using the 3" bellmouth style dump/front pipe from UAS?? if so what are your opinions on it, i am thinking of getting one very soon.

Definantely DONT go the CES. The wastegate pipe isn't even mandrel bent, it's crush bent. Looks all nice & shiny, but an engineering cockup from start to finish with the O2 sensor issue.

From memory, Bosch specifies that the sensor should be mounted above horizontal so that the section of piping it's on does not collect/drain water.

I do actually have a BOS dump, but got screwed over when he changed supplier. I had my cat back system custom made to fit on the dump I got from him only to have that crack. He sent me a replacement, but didn't fit the same & the exhaust sat twisted & at a different angle (not a good look with twin pipe). I've had a dodgy job done to get the new one to fit to my cat back. When I did some checks it turned out that the first dump had been set up wrong when compared to the original & the new one was correct. So I've spent $1400 on a stainless steel cat back exhaust system only to have to spend more money on it to make it fit right. Money I shouldn't have to spend, but since I sent the first one back I've heard shit. Before that he was talking about helping me out. Very pissed off.

I can say that the new type one does make good power (as you have seen before cubes), but I'm a bit wary of the quality of fitment.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.

      Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂

      Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
