Hi all,

Can anyone recomend a good set of dumps to go with a pair of HKS GT-SS, I've got a r32 gtr.

I'm currently running a X-force 3.5 inch exchaust kit all I'm missing are the dumps.

I was thinking of the HKS dumps to match the turbos but will they go ok with exchaust?

Any advice is appreciated.

thanks

i personally would not go for either the HKS ones or the x-force copies. the both have very small turbine outlets (yes partly made up for with the split wastegate pipe) but I have looked at both and was not impressed with the finish of either. though if I had to chose between them I'd go the HKS ones purely as they are made with a better grade and thickness of material. but i would suggest either the trust dump/fronts or the tomei dumps.

Second Baron's comments tomei look nice and trust dump/fronts look even nicer and from searching on here seem to be the pick of all possibilitys though harder to fit than the other options

I am going to try to fit trusts myself so may be able to give better advice soon

true! i didnt choose the Trust dumps b/c of the same reason, harder to fit and i think some1 mentioned that u'd need to modify to fit

Tomei dumps are nice, but they arent splits?

if u want Tomei dumps, which looks identical to my R34 dumps, u can get mine for real cheap :rolleyes:

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
