Just wondering if Lukey exhaust systems and their panel filters are worth getting for my GTS-T?

Could they make me a full exhaust system? I'm talking about replacing everything!

I prefer to source quality Australian made products than paying the extra premium for Japanese aftermarket parts. I believe we can make good parts too.

Let me know what you think before I lay down my coin.

Cheers.

Lukey make friggin mad exhausts.

I had one on my Datsun 280ZX and if F**King growled hard.

A rumble on idle and a roar on full throttle.

Yes I believe it was custom made 2.25" full straight though with an aftermarket exhaust manifold as well.

Sweet. I knew they were good but I didn't know how they would go on a Skyline. I'll definetly give it a bash.

Same with the panel filter. If no one has heard of or used them then I will try and be different. Could go either way but worth a shot. I should have one in by the end of the day.

Now last but not least... Just who would be good to get the exhaust fitted from? I need someone who knows Lukey and GTS-T's that only does quality work.

I would just stick to the Japanese brands.

They don't cost that much anyway.

Well I have been using the Lukey panel filter for almost a week now. And I can definitely say it was worth the buy. Much better power in the higher revs and a noticeable sucking/popping sound around 5,000rpm. And there is no increase in induction noise in the lower revs so you can still hear the turbo whistle.

Anyway I will still be going for a pod filter set up later on. I will all so be going for a JJR turbo back exhaust too.

Ah ok...

I thought you were still deciding on which brand of panel filter you want to get...

If Lukey does the job then its sweet!

So many jap part shops have stacks and stacks of jap catbacks, I wonder what it stopping you from getting one?

I want a turbo back exhaust from the one company. If I did that from the likes of lets say HKS... Then I would be broke.

And sorry I should have been more specific.

    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House  
    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
