Hey everyone,

Recently purchased an R33 GTS-T, stock clean and generally beautiful, except one thing. The previous owner installed a screamer on the turbo, bottom line is I hate it, im not about the attention and its just a bit shit really. What am I looking at to get it removed, whats the proceedure and who would I see?? Sorry to be all newbie and shit but im new to turbos and thought you might give me some insight.

Anyway cheers

A import exhaust center can remove it (or any exhaust center that know a thing about turbo's lol) would have to fit a factory dump pipe or aftermarket which is better and less restrictive then stock obviously to replace the screamer though

any exhaust shop would be able to fix it

unless

he has hacked apart the exhaust housing on the std turbo to fit a dump external pipe

if he/she has done that just buy another std turbo for $100 from someone selling one

+1

Get a photo for accurate advice, then we can recommend the parts needed to change it and where best to buy them.

Hopefully its just a silly split dump pipe and a simple justjap belmouth dump for 200 bucks will fix it for you, and all round better performance too.

hard to get into take a decent photo for you, but it appears to be a JJR Stainless screamer dump pipe.

Is it as simple as it seems to purchase a JJR Split dump pipe and bolt on?

Looks like it could be the shot.

Very simple, a few bolts, a case of beer, a bleeding hand and swearing.

Don't get the split, just a bellmouth will do.

Yeah for 10x the price and probably made with Chinese tube anyway

Lol. Hardly.

Andrews work does cost a bit more, but quality costs money. ;)

As for Chinese tube... +1 to Simon. Clueless.

    • Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask
    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
