If you're looking for a front pipe only in melb then it won't be that easy...i was looking for one a few weeks back to bolt up to my hks dump but all the sponsors don't seem to sell 32 front pipes alone...i'm still looking...will lt you know if i find one...cheers...

Hiya mjai,

i've seen your car around, nice series 2 you have there. Hows ure boost controller going, only to be restricted with that stock dump/front pipe of yours? lols

i'm also looking into a front/dump. are you planning to get stainless steel or mild steel?

and do u think that the bell/open shape dump is better than the joint split dump/front thats going around.

i recommend the 1st option. if you find any, tell me where i could get one as well.

R32GTS-T

Hi edstar,

Thanks dude, i think i ran a car like yours a couple of days ago on private track and busted ya, or maybe it was someone else, who knows.

Back to the question at hand, i am looking to find a front pipe most likely to be stainless steel, i wouldthink that the bell shape dump would be slighter better then the dump fronts going around but the question is where do you find a decent front to match the dump?

Well yeh, i've been searching around for a while, looking at front pipes. Gktech.com.au sells dumps for RBs but not front pipes yet. i've read in another post that gktech.com.au is looking into front pipes with the flex system for RB, have u seen this post mjai?

Edstar,

Yer can't take on cars with AFC's mate. Gotta admit they were pretty pumped however, i fail to see how a type R' vtec y0' can take on the RB-line.

Better luck next time.

Yer i saw the GKtech.com.au ones they are alright man but i need the front pipes too...yes i have read the post. Still no front regardless.

Do you think i should just customize it Edstar?

Thanks,

m.

P.S - vtec y0. :laugh:

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
