Just thought it would be good to share with my fellow fabricators my custom long split dumps for my GTR.

Basically i though f**k paying almost a grand for trust extended dump and front kit, ill make my own!

In a nutshell, I started off with some Just Jap stainless dumps, chopped the gates off and extended them, welded up the holes in the main pipes where the gates used to plumb back in.

I bought some stainless 1.5 inch mandrel bends and chopped and used those to make the gates.

Im no expert welder with the mig, but by the end of doing these i wasnt too shabby...(being modest)...thats why i grinded back most of

the welds cos they looked shit haha. My flange weld isnt too bad cos that was the final bit...:cheers:

Did a bit of test fitting with a spare block and head...bloody tight fit it was...

brilliant. I was just about to start on exactly this job since they've just change our race regulations to free exhaust systems. We'll run similar setup except keep front and rear turbo exhaust seperate as well - so 4 pipes straight out the side.

the thing that worries me most is clearance putting the motor in since ours comes in and out all the time :cheers: and physical space for the pipes, especially the front one.

what diameter is the wastegate pipe? 1inch?

I bought some stainless 1.5 inch mandrel bends and chopped and used those to make the gates.

Duncannnn! :blush:

nice pipes. never been a big fan of the HKS style dumps as they have 2 pretty small pipes. I'm converted to the big bell mouth dump which lets the gas expand as much as possible as quickly as possible, but yours look like they will work well. :D

    • Thanks heaps Duncan and GTSBoy. I'll get my old man to sit in the driver's seat and turn it on and off while I test with the meter. Or maybe other way round, depending on whether he remembers where his glasses got to
    • This is the GTR fuel pump. Yellow shows 12V, orange shows earth. The ECU provides the earth to activate the fuel pump relay. The ECU side of teh relay will pull low when the ECU activates. This is the RB20 fuel pump. Almost the same, but a little simpler. You can see I indicated (above) where the 12V line goes down to the RB20 diagram on the overall diagram, whch shows both RB26 and RB20. This is where I show it coming in on the RB20 diagram below. You can see that the dropping resistor is handled differently. When the fuel pump control is not providing earth to the pump, the pump earths through the dropping resistor and thus runs at lower voltage (some is wasted over the resistor) and runs slower. I showed that "not 12V and not quite earth" portion of the wiring in a paler orange. The rest of the wiring that I did not colour on that little section below the pump would be orange when the fuel pump coontroller is providing earth. This drop is handled inside the fuel pump controller in the GTR. Regardless, you can see where 12V is supposed to be, where earth is supposed to be. The key on prime is via the ECU providing the pump for only a few seconds the switching off. You should be able to see that happen.
