Hey guys need some knowledge here.

I want to run an external wastegate on my rb20det. I was originally and still want to weld it to my stock manifold but the position where I wanted to put it (on top of the manifold) the intake pipe gets in the way.so I thought how much to the right can I move over but it's too much that it's on a bend.

Is there anywhere else that I can weld it to the manifold that it won't b in the way of anything?

And does it matter where it's positioned for flow purposes?

Ur help is much appreciated

Thanks

Jason

i asked around a few places and none of them wanted to do the job due to it being cast iron and they can't guarantee the work or if it will even turn out properly.

who did the weld job for you JKR-32 and how much did it cost ya?

pm sent.

edit: looks good man, is that a steal pipe running of the manifold to suit a 38mm ext gate?

has anyone tried fitting a 40mm ext gate off the manifold or turbo housing?

My mechanic done the work mate. Not sure what diameter pipe actually. But its ha the old style turbo smart 45mm pro gate hanging off it. Brad does all my mechanical, fabrication and tuning. Handy bloke, but as is always the case with good mechanics, it's a jump in line type senario. Not sure on price, because he done the turbo swap, intake pipe, and dump pipe all at the same time as the gate. Along with a few other things.

Yer I dOnt really want to weld it to the exhaust housing just incase I need to changed turbo or something like that, that's y I want it on the manifold.but it's hat to find someone to do it as being said it's cast iron an all and ppl can't guarantee the welds.even though I'm sure if it's done the proper way an no shortcuts that it will hold. Does anyone know anyone in melbounre that will weld it??? Pref in northern suburbs???

    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
    • Probably. I take it that they are also mentioned to be for R34 Skyline? For example.... RDA has that part as RDA7957. I have the dimpled and slotted version of that on my car https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285518478694?srsltid=AfmBOopKxMuAFpsxZJdB1cam4D5RAj1f9yJyOttPZLAwXVNCOiwlhrIy This is DBA's top one piece equivalent https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364246686631?srsltid=AfmBOorbb0XHQgqTvZLgQPhg70nqJtGvdojKnugum3O2LFSr2h-obp8D
