[jet_r31]

I bought another hypergear last week, going to start fitting maybe next week, i bought all the gaskets today except

for upper intake manifold gasket for when i change injectors, are R33 gaskets the same as R34?, i wanted to get a Cometic

cheers

What model did you get Darren?

[jet_r31]

g3 type a..but i will put a 3000rpm stall in it, so it won't

Be laggy at all, the only thing i cant decide is if i will put a 38mm gate on

housing, i have one here but i dont know if i cbf, the idea behind getting the hypergear

in first place was so i could do a quick turbo change and get on with my

projects instead of f**king around with family car, i just wan

t enough power to pass safely on holidays 300awkw would be enough

Careful with that gasket

All the cometic ones on ebay say they fit r34

But they dont. Got one sitting at home cuz it doesnt fit

[jet_r31]

Hence me asking you guys....ebay says it does, my mate say it doesn't either(and he should know, but

i wanted to double check) , looks like acl race series i think does them

cheers

FYI

Cometic on the bottom

stock on the top

[LANDSCRIBBLE]

that looks like an r33/r32 gasket

[blah_blah]

It probably is, cept every reputable ebay store in Aus is selling it as an R34 gasket

[jet_r31]

My mate said on his computer at parts store , cometic don't have a part number on his trade list for R34 Rb25's..only 33's.

R33 gaskets fit R34's fine, I used them on mine.

Oh so that's what's wrong with your car

[GTSBoy]

Zing!

[blah_blah]

R33 gaskets fit R34's fine, I used them on mine.

That's strange, I tried to line it up and it didn't fit. The end holes didn't even line up

[GTScotT]

I hope the cometic S14 gaskets are poo!

Ill be fitting up my intake this week.

[GTScotT]

Lol meant to say AREN'T.

Stao I had to rotate my CHRA for better fitment which wasn't an issue but have noticed the actuator arm is actually too short.

I have it set to maximum adjustment and I am only getting about 1/4 circle of preload when I would like to have 1/2 at minimum.

is there a slightly shorter actuator I can use or is this it?

I have moved the mounting bracket and bent it a little to help but I do not want to go too far with it.

It was fine prior due to the angle the chra was on as it gave more distance, but then my oil drain was fouling the drain entry on the block.

lol, i wondering what you where saying, thought it was strange haha, anyways i got a Durapro gasket ordered today

for upper manifold gasket hope they are decent

cheers

I ended up scoring an R32 collector gasket. The R33 one is all rubber where the R32 one has a metal piece sandwiched inbetween the rubber. May hold up better with higher boost like Stao was saying.
