Ive seen many movies on youtube and seen a couple vl's and skylines with screamer pipes but they all are external wastegates.

Iv came across this one someones sellin on ebay and was wondering if this can actually b done on an internal set-up?

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...=tab%3DWatching

I had a look on youtube and theres a few movies with internal screamer pipes but they may just say that??

So if this IS possible would there be any power loss/gains??

Or would it just sound like it has somethin majorly wrong and "choof"?

Any help would be great guys

cheers chalky

i disagree with the two above statements.

yes it you just bolt one on it will sound like crap.

this i due to the constant exhaust leak from the main pipe to the screamer pipe.

this problem can be fixed with a divider between the two pipes in the back of the turbo.

most screamed pipes you buy have a divider but it is no were near big-enough

to fix this problem i made up dome shims out of some steel sheets i had laying around.

i also used some exhaust gasket for the final shim to create a near perfect seal.

this took me about 3.5 hours including the time to take the turbo off and put it back on on my mates RB20.

the most time was taken in shimming the spacer to suit the rear housing of the turbo.

i suggest you get your hands on a set of digital vernier calipers. so you can get the clearancers as tight as possible.

so in short yes they sound like crap strait out of the box but can be modified to sound good but is time consuming.

you may experience slight power gain's depending on if you exhaust is restrictive.

also we put the rb25neo turbo on at the same time witch made a big difference.

BTW when done right sounds like real gate!!!!! :domokun:

good luck

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
