R34 Gtr Parts

[Johnny]

Hey guys,

I just bought some turbos and dumps for my GTR. After reading some threads on street turbos, I realise that they are too big for street use and for the power I am aiming for (only 260-280awkw) + I managed to drive a mates r33 with the -5's and they have a little flat torque spot which im not too keen on.

They are the 2530 Garrett equivalents (2860-5) so I wish to sell them to somebody who wants a little extra power.

They are new, and havent been mounted or anything; selling for $2400 and ill post them too. They are only the turbines with the actuator but no gaskets as I was gonna have the tuner source those parts for me.

the other item is some tomei dumps, new again but after reading about the r34 gtr stockers which can handle the 'low' power im after, dont really see the point; will have my stockers blasted and honed to remove the jagged edges (same as my manifolds)

anyways after $800 for them

I know this is a for sale thread but anyone want to chime in about a good front pipe, or is the stocker good enough? thinking of the trust greddy pipe which has the dumps and front included - good compromise?

Last item is my Nismo snorkel, kinda kevlar i think - selling cos ive bought a stock plastic snorkel which i prefer - currently i have it cleaned and wrapped in glad wrap as i think its too nice to put on the car.

anyways hit em up with an PM if interested

-Get some pics up ASAP

Price on the snorkel? What cars does it fit?

[Johnny]

Hey, the snokel is for an r34 gtr but im not sure if it fits any other car.

Price wise, i know i didnt post yet cos i dont know what they are worth (came with the car)

Ill check some import sites and see how much they are, if they are rare etc and can finally post a price - again i apologize

will grab some pics of the dumps and turbz asap

Are these the tig welded tomei dumps with the 3" output flanges or those expreme ones with the 2.5" flanges?

First dibs on the dumps if they are the welded 3" large ones.

Im interested in the snorkel as well. Whats the price on that?

Hey mate, sorry but the dumps just sold but the snorkel is still avaliable; hard to put a price on it cos i dont know how much they were new and how rare they are, ill keep checking and post back a price.

Price drop on turbos though - $2200 + extra for delivery

cheers

ps: jst quick, if anyone owns one or knows how much the nismo snorkel is worth care to chime in? thanks

There is a new one for sale on eBay for $460 if I remember correctly.

I don't believe they are made from kevlar but are FRP?

LOL its not the first time ive missed out on those tomei dump pipes! Seems they are the fastest selling item you can list for sale on SAU.

The snorkel was more of a wish list item for me. I realy need dumps and a front pipe before i go buying 1/2 the nismo catalogue...

Regarding your question and reason for sale... Stock 34 GTR dumps are good for up to 300kw easy. Ive heard others report as high as 350kw. Going with stock dumps and a 2nd hand nismo front pipe, or something else (hks, etc) in the 65mm ID range will meet your needs nicely. The trust split pipes are very attractive as well but I have no experience with them. Nismoid does though, so he is the man to ask (as to how they compare to stock 34 dumps and a good front pipe for 300kw).

Keeping the stock manifolds and dumps (match porting them), and getting a good 2nd hand front pipe will work well and save you some money. You can then spend the spare cash on coatings. If you get your exhaust turbines, manifolds, front pipe and dumps internally and externally coated, and your heat shields blasted and ceramic coated as well, it will help reduce under bonnet temps and heat soak, and improve flow and performance... win win win.

Madzzz found it, your right, its made from FRP and costs a tad over 400 brand new so ill post a price of 380 since its pretty much brand new

Looks like the sale fell through, the bloke decided to stick to the stockers so they are back up for sale, ill PM you if your interested. They arent the expreme ones, they are the welded ones; dont know what the deal is with those ones, replacement model? maybe thats why i got a good deal on the pipes.

Im sticking to the stock dumps since im only after the 250-270awkw number so a little blasting and port matching + ceramic coating will give me the results im after (thanks for the advice!)

I gotta do some research on the stock front pipe if it is worth changing? maybe gain some response?

cheers man
