Seeing that all te intake piping needs to be changed, have you had a quote for that Gav?

No not yet - there are a few ways to skin the cat on this one. Given that the new GTX terbs have a 3" inlet (much larger than the 2" GT versions), I am thinking of new 3" piping from the pods to the compressor inlet.

where are you guys getting rear housings for dash 5s? I've been looking for some forever. new, used, whatever...

Perth Garrett dealer tells me Garrett have 13 in stock (I assume he means Garrett Australia?). Anyway, part number is 430609-230 and retail inc GST is just shy of $400 per unit.

such as? hoses collapsing? just curious, as I'm also running 90 deg silicon bends off my compressor inlets.

They have too much flex so it's so much easier for them to pop off. I've also had then weaken due to heat and split :(

They can also catch fire... Or at least heat to the point they harden and crack.

I had 3 90 degree bends do that, usually around 2,000kms they would last (this was on the 31 years ago).

Gotta have a steel 90degree bends if you can when close to manifolds/heat.

Surely Hypergear could profile the new front wheels and then machine the standard -5/2530 front cover for a direct gtr bolt on..

...and sell it for the same price without turbine housings

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
