Give Kermit a call. He'll do it for cheaper than that, but its still expensive. Taking off the dump is tedious work. Thats why its expensive. Its because you have to really take your time taking out the bolts. Lots of WD40 involved. If you snap them, which can easily happen, its a real bitch.

Just do the whole lot. You'll want in done later anyway. Seriously give Kermit a call. It will be a lot cheaper than Tommy says if Kermit does it. He does awesome prices and really good work. Give him a call for sure.

Unless your not planning on changing your current turbos for a long time, wait til you upgrade turbos to do dumps.

Otherwise you'll be spending that $500-$1K in labour twice.

As said previously, front pipes are easily done, any exhaust shop can do it for around $100 (i had front pipes + catback changed for $80)

i do plan on upgrading the turbos sometime in the future so i guess the dumppipes will have to wait, i dont see the point of installing the same parts twice and spending half a "k" doin it...well cheers for the info guys

Are you guys serious? GTR's are a turbo-out job to replace the dumps?

That sux!

33R & 34R dumps are better than the 32R ones(apparently), so you probably wouldn't notice the difference til you upgrade turbos anyway.

I'm hoping the previous owner of my GTR in Japan swapped the 34R dumps over when he put the 34R turbos on :D

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
