sup guys, ive had my 3" monkey warehouse screamer on for about 1mth now. and i have to say i like it alllloot.

basically.....well u guys know the setup.

seperate pipe for wastegate....yea u know it.

just want to know if there are any specific pro's or cons'

atm it is running sweet.

=edit. also, would it be better to have a bellmouth, although a tad restrictive.

or keep the screamer, as the wastegate gas is seperated, =no turbulance in dump pipe.

Con: They are fun for a while,then they are noisy and annoying

Con: If you get taken over the pits prepare to bend over.

ha yea, im starting to miss the spool up noise. the screamer kicks in at about 2500rpm.

when i get sick, ill go a bellmouth dump pipe.

love the spool

pro

free exhaust backpressure release

i guess if you like the sound, then the sound

cons

major defect and epa violation (risk of big fine)

exhaust gas / heat in the engine bay area (could be burning stuff etc)

The only pro is noise.

If the exhaust is designed well from the outset, then plumbing in should not pose a restriction.

I had one when i was external gate, i must admit i dont mind how quiet my car is now

personally I think screamer on an internal gate turbo (what you have) is pretty lame. a proper screamer (on an external gate) like what most people in this thread are talking about is an aquired taste. sounds impressive, but also sounds a bit 'dirty'.

Screamer's are illegal in QLD it's just that most cops here are not car wise and wouldn't have a clue what one was. It's coming though, cops are getting trained to identify things like this. At the moment as long as you don't have a BOV placed visibly under the bonnet your generally right, you can have whatever you want.

You must agree though due to the laws of physics, an identical exhaust without the wastegate plumbed back into the exhaust (screamer pipe) is always going to flow better than an exhaust with the wastegate plumbed back.. :whistling:

Well ye to an extent. If the exhaust flows enough, then there is nothing to offer.

Seen a number of cars go internal or screamer. Didn't make a difference to them.

But then my own car lost a good chunk, that was due to me only having a 3" and over 300rwkw :whistling:

      Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
