I've got a silicon elbow for the turbo outlet. Just hooking straight into the stock pipework. Then I just need a 40mm fitting for my bov return and a 20mm for the breather pipe.

One thing I haven't considered, does stao send gaskets with his turbos and will the turbo have exhaust studs?

Ok everyone. For future reference. Atr43 SS-1 is not an easy bolt on option. Needs new water lines and the oil drain needs to be customized, you cant put the rear exhaust nut on because the outlet flange is about 3-4 mm from the stud and the outlet of the compressor jams against the manifold, yer I can just turn the compressor housing to suit but then the wastegate actuator gets more pressure, the t3 flange and the Nissan 6 bolt flange or should I say flat plate with holes tapped in it is just welded onto the turbo, im guessing that it's a t25 exhaust housing with the flanges cut off.. Why the f**k did I think a cheap turbo was a good idea.

man r his turbos really that bad?? i was considering getting one at some stage..now I will THINK BEFORE. Thanks for the warning, maybe a Garret is the way to go after all...But quite a few people are commending the guy..so...pics please?? that will help a lot of people in here

Their turbos are pretty good in general. I'm running a one of their high flows and can't be happier.

Two mate's got their ATR43 turbos on theirs I've seen them, very welly machined inside, abit rough out side. They made a generic housing into a T3x Nissan housing so consider the concept in making them, thats understandable. Both made 300rwkws+, Its a Turbo so its more of the performance then the looks.

Their turbos actually do looks abit rough in appearance, its all comes down to performance.

Is that what you've got?

Yer thats the one, I wasn't really concerned with looks as you can't even see it once fitted, more so unhappy that it's a "direct oem replacement" and it's no where near fitting. He is sending me a spacer and gaskets so will see how it goes next week. Pics to come.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
