Hi,

R33 GTR with stock turbos, is it possible to upgrade the stock Dump Pipes without taking out the turbos?

i.e install them from underneath the car? how much should i be looking at for install? Found these and want to stick them on when i tune my car this weekend linky

I heard they offer a big power increase?

Thanks.

Yeah you can!

I did that. Rebuilt my stock turbos and put in new larger diametre dump pipes.

BTW your link is not working.

sorry someone just bought it.. lol

These ones are cheap too though, ebay link doesnt work for some reason? anyway they are "JDM Performance Stainless Dump Pipe-RB26DETT R32 GTR" @ AU $189.00.

did you do it yourself mate? i did my exhuast and front pipes myself at home in my garage, but dont think i could get away with installing dump pipes myself? how much would a mechanic charge for something like this? cheers.

BTW, did you notice a big power difference?

Well I did it at the same time when my mechanic rebuilt turbos, he found a split / crack in the stock dump pipes. So he put new 3 or 3.5" ones in. So it cost me about $5000 = :unsure:

But I don't think it will cost that much to get him to install. Estimate $100 give or take...

It allows the turbos to spool / flow the exhaust fumes a lot better / smoother.

Not sure about the power output as I don't think he dynoed it but the car is running much better cause the stock dumps are very narrow = restrictive.

Guess you can do it yourself, its just a matter of jacking the car up and be able to reach up to the nuts and bolts where the dumps connect to the exhaust manifold.

Cool!

Its a turbo off job for dump fitting, rear one only. Makes it hell easier.

Your looking around 700-1000 for the work

First reply doesn't answer the question really...

And if upgrading dumps, might as well do the turbo's IMO.

it's a turbo's out job. some might even say engine out really. I don't know of anyone that could replace GTR dumps with the turbos and everything else still bolted in place.

      R32 Nismo steering wheel install help needed

      By 32pwwr · Posted

      Hey legends, first time ever installing a steering wheel LOL and I’m a little confused…. And the discussions I’ve found don’t really answer my question. im finally trying to install this nismo steering wheel that came with my car. removed OE steering wheel off my car no issues, first issue I ran into though is the Saas boss kit I got was non hi as so first Whomp whomp…. Was there any recommendations for a good boss kit? second issue I ran into was the nismo horn only has one connection on the back? this confuses me as I would think there should be two? one for positive one for earth?   Any would  be much appreciated 🙏🏽🙏🏽

      Nismo 1.5 way Stub axle issue

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      The struggle is real with lower ratios, has cost me a fortune making my 3.5 work. Pull it apart, stuck one stub axle in a vice spline facing up, then stick the centre on. Insert the other stub axle then apply torque wrench. Report back. I suspect it's borked. The good news is they're pretty simple inside, bad news is parts for the Nismo stuff are hard to come by.

      CSV? Come on lad, I'm all about PowerBI these days. I would consider working as a PowerBI or ZOHO DataPrep consultant, but nah, I've had enough of IT. Two decades of being in somewhat in an industry I kind of just chose because I had zero guidance when I was younger.
