MAte, if you got a choice go the split dump pipe. There will be less back pressure due to turbulence.

I got a 3" straight. A few people have done back to back performance and noticed some improvement.

i'm tossing up between ditching my front/dump pipe and going the split.. just don't know if the gain is worth the money.

I guess it depends on your level of mods as well.

pav,

spoken to lotsa ppl on this issue, unless your shooting for more than 250rwkw, its ok to run either pipe. You will only see a real noticeable difference at high hp.

so as on that note, why screw around with a great exhaust set up that nissan give you, dont worry bout the split dump, just get a 3" straight pipe put it. under 250rwkw the increase is the same.

cheers

When I was shopping/asking around for a dump pipe, I heard literally EVERY single theory about split Vs. all-in-1 dumps, and this wasn't just from 1 or 2 dudes, we're talking 10+ professional opinions, nearly ALL different ! !

It pretty much came down to these 2 theories:

Pro-Split: The nice smooth run of pipe out of the exducer flows better, and helps spool-up, because the gas's inertia isn't upset by the turbulence You get with the wastegate in the same pipe.

Anti-split: The gas coming out of the exducer is rotating and as turbulent as it's possible to be, it can't get any MORE turbulent, so as long as the pipe diameter is there, and there's no big blockages, it's all gunna flow as long as the backpressure is kept low. The gas has done all the hard work, now it just needs low backpressure & a place to go !

Make up your own mind, I got My X-Force 3" (non-split) dump for $150 in mild steel, not bad eh?

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
