Hey guys,

Never made a dose pipe before but i have just turbo'd my mates 31 with a T3/T4 T04E and was playing around with various suggestions i found on the net but with no success, anyhow he isn't really fussed whether his dose's or not but i am about to turbo my 31 to give to my girlfriend and she really wants it to dose, so if anyone could help me out with some measurements or even better, pics..that would be awesome :rolleyes:

Thanks, Daniel.

2.5" Silicone Joiner, 2.5" or 3" wide, 17cm long piece of pipe preferably 45 degree angle, Attach to mouth of turbo, attach some memory hose to the end. It's actually the easiest thing to make, if you need measurements then you probably shouldn't be doing it :P There is no "Right" way.

Ah cheers mate, i tried a piece of short 3" steel pipe, also a reducer and short 2.5" steel pipe, and also a couple of different sized elbows, all i could seem to get was the usual compressor surge noise >_< i wasnt driving it when i tested it though, just revving it

I've fkt around with dose pipes for about a million years now.

I had the same turbo on my VL.

The best dose I could get was a 3" > 2.5" reducer to a straight pipe 11cm long with no pod on the end.

Any bends take the volume right out of it and making it longer makes it deeper.

i wasn't able to drive it as it wasn't finished yet but i was able to get it to surge pretty easily by revving it like in the video above ^ ... but i will drive it next time just to be sure.

Also what is clamped in the end of that pipe peter ?

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
