That sure as hell ain't no HKS dump pipe. That looks like something that came out of my ass last night.

Once you see a GENUINE HKS dump pipe, you'll know what I mean.

Boxhead: That's pretty much right... Basically for the lower volume models, APEXi outsourced the PowerFC tuning/testing/R&D to a company called AP.Engineering. They were under contract to APEXi to produce the PowerFCs for models like the RB20DET, SR20DE (non turbo Silvias), 3S-GTE (MR2s), AE86, FC3S (Older RX7s) etc etc...

The more mainstream/popular models, APEXi did the R&D/testing themselves.

The R32 GTS-t model PowerFC is called "AP. Engineering Power FC SPL" and the APEXi Part Number is 4E14N07Z. It's priced at 118,000 Yen.

It's in the APEXi Master Catalog, so I assume you can purchase them through APEXi.

Well Merli or is it Mr HKS.

It is a Genuine HKS Cast item! I have a 3'' stainless mandrel split pulse item. If I wanted a 'ken mandrel one I would have asked for one.

And anyone who has tried to source a PFC for HCR32 knows all the BS about them subbing to another mob bla bla bla.

With all due respect... stop turning this post into a general discussion

I know I will pay a "fair bit" but let me be the judge of value...

You dont know why I want these items, so stick the facts.. Like the part number, now that was helpful!

Ciao

There is no such thing as a "Genuine HKS Cast Item" Dump Pipe.

And with that crappy attitude, you'd better not hold your breath for people to come to help you out in the future, because you obviously know it all, and don't need our help.

Life is a Mirror Merli... "That sure as hell ain't no HKS dump pipe. That looks like something that came out of my ass last night.... sure reaks of a crappy attitude to me.

I just wanted to procure the items, didnt want a bagging on my taste or lack of it! It may not be HKS, but it comes in an HKS turbo-kit box... and no I dont have the part number.

I may well be wrong, cos I don't have the full HKS range commited to memory. Pick someone else to sling off at, I'm busy trying to find some hard to get parts.

Your taste? I was bagging your taste or anything else. I was (admittedly drunkenly at 2:48am) telling you that the pictured item was not an HKS dump pipe. If you would have rathered to go on and be deluded in thinking that HKS makes such horrible pieces of workmanship, then that's your perogative. If it came in an "HKS turbo kit box", then someone my friend, got majorly ripped off.

FYI, HKS dump pipe for HCR32 is a very VERY common item, not a "hard to get part" at all... It is listed in their catalog (I don't memorise it either :) ) as Part Number: 1418-RN008 at a price of 26,000 Yen.

I have seen a hks turbo, 2510 from memory, a older version that had that HKS cast dump pipe. Just because they dont seel them now dosent mean they were never made.

Just like you can buy old HKS cast manifolds, looked a bit crude but were ok for their time.

I will keep a look out and may no of a 34 cooler for sale soon.

Thanks Clint32!!!! Appreciated...

Look out Merli, more deluded people... Sydneykid who pens many cm in these forums also believes it is an HKS dump pipe.

I WILL SWAP A STAINLESS MANDREL TYPE SCREAMER FOR ONE OF THESE "HKS" CAST DUMP PIPES

At least Merli is keeping my thread bumped... any publicity is good publicity.

Ciao Clint32

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
