That was a standard intake pipe with sleeve. Totally different to a 3inchmetal intake pipe with silicone joiners

Do you have one laying around? I'm interested of doing a back to back dyno testing using a PU .82 high flow. Would be interested to source some for high flow customers if they work, or at least can find out what they support up to.

Completely off the current topic, but is there known compatibility issues with the r33 gtst just jap racing split front/dump pipe fitting on a hi Kai high flowed r33 gtst turbo?

If so what's the issue and how can I get around it?

If the intake pipe sucked shut at full gas would the car go noticeably berserk because it's the equivalent of breathing through a straw instead of it's mouth?

I don't see how a metal intake pipe would make more power than a working rubber intake if they're the same sizes roughly.

What do you mean beserk? The car will be limited to the amount of air it can get throught the collapsed intake pipe. I used to have it and once it sucked shut the power line was just flat. On the road it just felt like a huge flat spot in power. Car still ran fine etc.

The engine completely dies, then it slowly opens up a bit then sucks shut again, basically feels like the engine has been shut off.

I thought the turbo is comming back for a ss1.5 upsize.

The main issues with intake restriction are that it can not supply enough air to the comp wheel, 2ndly that slows down the shaft speed making turbine wheel harder to turn, there for trapping combusted air inside combustion chamber causing detonations.

I'm still waiting for bit more feedbacks from couple of evaluation SS2 units at this stage. Will produce them when I have more solid results. For time been, 250~270rwkws mark use the SS1PU and 270~300rwkws mark use the G3.

There is also a prototype high flow from R33 21U turbo that Im working on and off for the time been. The goal is to duplicate G3's result while stay in factory turbo shells.

This is the best news ive heard in a while! keep up the good work on this idea :)

yeah it got sent back here for some reason??

i cant afford to get my turbo fixed now but when i have some spare cash il send it down again.

hi stao, what was the price on highflowing a set of r33 gtr turbos. want loads of response with around 400awhp

Yes can be done, cost $1700 for both turbos.

Also congratulation to customer whom won Vic hill clamb championship. That we built a custom turbo for his SR20det blue bird.

The JJR pipe is to close to the firewall and burns the Air-conditioning pipe. You get wet feet. The only way i got around it was to cut the pipe, and drill the hole back into it (was melted shut)

I have one on my car at the moment, and it hasn't done anything to my air con as yet I don't think.

I thought there was meant to be a problem with the wastegate not being able to open/close properly on the high flowed r33 gtst turbo because of the bit of metal which splits the flow?

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • 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!
