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

im with u 2bnvs.

but i must admit that if i get bored, i can just bolt on my jjr bellmouth.

but i do love the screamer pipe. especially with 5k+revs.

sounds just like a jet engine

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:

The only pro is noise.

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:

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
