Hi guys,

I bought a just jap hard pipe kit for my GTR and am having some problems getting the first pipe on. It doesn't seem to fit. Has anyone else hard this problem???

When i put the silicon part just over the lip of the pipe at both ends it is also considerably shorter than the standard pipe(about 2-3cm. Is it possible that they gave me a another GTR's pipe instead???

Here are some pics of the installation as close to getting it clamped properly as i could. It works as long as you don't make boost and then it pops of.

So i'm just after other peoples experience as this doesn't seem like the right fit.

The logical solution would be to give them a call and if there is a problem they will fix it up for you.

From your pictures it looks like a case of poor installation to me.

They are exactly the same as the HKS hard pipe kits and are a perfect fit, several people on this forum are using them.

Yeah i will call them now but i just wanted to make sure that it should be a perfect fit.

Yeah the installation was bad because the pipe did not reach properly.

yeah i used one on cats car with no issues.

Yeah i rang them up and they told me i had a 33/34 pipe.

Is it only the one pipe that is different or all of them??? Just so i don't have to bring the everything back when i don't have to.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.  
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
