Good morning everyone,

i did a quck search and couldnt find what i was after.

I was just wondering if parts that are reccommended for turbo cars could be used for N/A?? Example, exhaust system on JustJap suited for 'R34 GTT coupe' ... would that work/fit a 'R34 GT25 N/A coupe/sedan'

Sorry if question sounds a little silly, just something i don't quite understand.

Thankyou in advance!

Owen.

Do a search on this forum for exhaust and there's plenty of info. Bascially it comes down to volumetric efficiency. Yes 3" will work but response down low is sacrificed. I could go into it in further detail but my flight is boarding now lol

thanks for reply's guys.

i should of made myseld more clear, the exhaust was an example, i have seen parts like, aftermarket pods, silicone hoses, radiator pipes, fuel flters, fuel pumps etc. that say it is for GTT or GTS-T, i would like to know in general if all these types of parts fit/will work with N/A skylines (r33, r34) as well.

Sorry for not making myself clear everyone! hope question makes more sense now.

Cheers.

if you could get a stock turbo catback exhaust then use that. unless you have serious mods then 3" is actually going to reduce your power and be as loud as shit. i have seen results from people putting 3" systems on 3.5L magnas and there was no max power gain from doing it, but there was a drop in low end power, and that is on a car with 1000cc more. even on a 4.0L falcon 2.5" is a big enough exhaust. and before you start bagging out falcons, etc as being shit, it still doesn't alter the fact that a 4.0L engine is going to be pumping out more exhaust gases than a 2.5L

thanks for reply's guys.

ok, in that case, it really depends on what it is. a lot of stuff is interchangable, sometimes even if the stock items aren't exactly the same. things like pods will usually be 100% universal, not just between skylines, but all cars. it is usually just the adapter that makes it specific to a skyline, etc. radiator hoses and fan belts, etc i would assume would be interchangable. sometimes things can be determined by whether the car has ABS or not. this will often apply to brake parts (i know, captain obvious) but can also apply to other things such as fuel filters (probably not on the skyline though, but i have seen other cars where they are different).

Thanks mad082. your advice did help, but i guess ill just find out about a certain part before i buy it, because as you said, it can vary from part to part which are interchangeable and which are not.

Thanks again.

just ring just jap and ask they know alot. order it over the phone, pretty easy

and then just hope they send you the right thing, LOL. while i haven't had any troubles a guy i know has been given the wrong thing a few times. luckily he just goes there in person so it's easier for him to sort it out.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
