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

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.

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
