Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Hey Pete its ceramic and after 5,000 rpm it sounds like a supercharger whistle so now I'm not boosting @ all and I've taken as much boost out of the manual controller as i can so its basically running factory boost to which i'm not using trying to drive on 0 or neg vacuum

Sounds like you've lost a little bit of the impellar which probably just shot out of the exhaust.

I wouldn't be doing too much driving if I were you because the blades can get fairly unbalanced and shatter now.

OK if the pieces shoot straight out your exhaust.......not OK if a piece gets caught between an exhaust valve and seat.

oh what happens then and when I'm on negative vacuum my understanding is the turbine isn't spinning?? :(

Wouldn't have thought it would stop spinning altogether but as long as your under boost I can't imagine the thing would fly apart.

You would think that the ceramic has gone but you never know, it could also be something else?!

My old 32 was doing this about a day before the rear tubine let go and lodged itself in my cat, as SLED said i really wouldn't wanna drive the car that much cause it sounds like the turbo's close to death

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By RB25inside · Posted

      UPDATE: Yes the GSP Axles are compatible. I installed it on my R34 today and they are working a treat! Turns out that the S13, S14, S15, and 200 SX all used the same axles as the HR34, and ER34 NA models. Which is 2 bolt x 3 pairs.

      Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing
