Hello,

I know a little bit about skylines, ive owned one for a few years but one thing i dont know and havent been able to check for awhile is about the dump pipe.

I was thinking about buying one of those dump + front pipe in one which is one pipe 3" mandrel bent but i wont to know is that all i need for the standard turbo? or do i need a split dump pipe for the wastegate aswell?

For standard upgrade applications the bell mouth version is fine. You will not notice a difference between split and bell. But the price JJR have on those splits is pretty low, so its not a bad buy at all. The only problem you may have is like a friend of mine who bought one of the ones pictured and he had to grind back the separating flap to make it fit, apart from that it was fine though.

whats that pipe? How do you call that? and how much is that? It looks good!

thats a dump/front pipe, goes from your turbo to your cat. My bro bought one for $280, not bad at all. Looks good and i like it better than the old small split dump (which is like 15cm long) then you have to get a seperate front pipe.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
