Well here it is :ermm:

Spent most of yesterday staring at my boot endlessly, then hours of cutting templates and planning.

Then today I went and bought some wood and put it together!

I'm waiting on a Bosch 044 fuel pump to hook up to the surge tank and put that all into place. I made the surge tank at work one quiet afternoon :D Came out very well.

Let me know what you think, it's not quite finished yet. I need to sort out carpetting, and possible get an aluminum edging made up to line the carpet where it meets the amp.

Cheers Martin. How are ya finding the extra 23 odd kw's??

If all goes well the next few months I should have my car back on the road by the start of March ready for when I get my licence :ermm:

Getting Nismo 555's, finishin the fuel setup, Z32 AFM, Some hybrid turbo made by Adelaide Turbo Works or something, Bill Keen?? A PowerFC if I can find one, and some splitfires.

The garage tuning it for me said they've just done one nearly identical setup and pulled a 284rwkw on a internally standard rb25 at 16psi. I'm excited. ahaha.

Thanks, jack

only concern id have is if one of those lines were to break or come loose

I was thinking that, but the chances aren't that high. When I do get it hooked up ill use braided lines and good clamps. It's not like there's extreme pressure in those lines anyway, probably 40-50psi maybe?

Well here it is ;)

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
