Hey sau,

purchased a HKS intercooler not long ago and I'm looking at completing my catback exhaust system. I have a query and was wondering if this is a direct bolt on product and can it be used on the stock turbo application. I know it states it can be but just need to be 100% sure before i purchase this. Will there be much performance increase and will it be noticeable. Here is the link... http://www.nengun.com/hks/stainless-front-pipe

My second question is if this dump pipe can be put on my stockish application im running so far. Will there be any performance increase if this item can be used. No turbo modifications of any sort so far here is the link for it... http://www.nengun.com/hks/extension-kit

Best regards chris

Both will fit your stock turbo and current cat back exhaust system.

Dump Should give you a more free flowing exhaust

thankyou for your help will be purchasing both these products to put on in the near future

best regards chris

Consider this also:

Much cheaper and will work just as good for a stock turbo. There will come a time that the stock turbo will bore you and the chances are you will want something like a garrett, which your expensive HKS dumps wouldnt work with.

With the cheaper pipe your losses are much less in that case.

must bolton replacement turbos for rb25 use the std rear turbo housing design, so the hks dump will work just fine

Think i might go with HKS but thankyou for the information iam registered with just jap allready. Will both these products be able to be bolted on? Or will i be able to put one on and not the other

best regards chris

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
