A big shout out to Scotty NM35 for all his help and skinned knuckles with the removal and install of my turbo!

New shorter core produced quite a few install issues and problems for Scott along the way. But he endured and I have boost again!

Coupled with a 'Scott Dump Pipe' and actuator mod, there is a definite extra kick.

Thanks so much Scott. Love your work.

No problem Dominic, glad to help. Did you get underneath and check it out?

Not very happy with the way this turbo was installed, too many mods required to make it a feasible option. That said the stock like response felt good for an untuned engine.

You are lucky I waived the bandaid tax, costs could have blown right out. :)

Someone left the door open again, daym wastlanders...

It was the "stock" sized wheels that Stao just designed, only hassle was the chra was 21mm shorter meaning the compressor housing and everything hanging off it was 21mm further back.

I won't be fitting another one of these.

Sounds like the same issue that Craig had when his 3071 highflow went on.

Exactly, even though I was promised it would fit as he had already sold two of them. It's easy to fit when someone else is doing the work though.

Haven't had a chance to climb under and look as yet... Got home from work in the dark yesterday, then back here this morning in the dark! Things one has to do to pay for repairs to a shagged M35 turbo!

Really impressed by the acceleration. As you said, close to stock. Very linear and coming on from approx 2500rpm with the extra kick.

My original post certainly didn't describe just how much stuffing about you had to do. Word of warning for anyone else going down this path... Speak to Scott and he will say, DON'T, I am sure.

Thanks for waiving the bandaid tax - with the number of cuts suffered, the cost would easily been higher than the value of the car!!

That was a mighty big look of relief in the rear view mirror, when I drove off - clearly happy to see my car disappear!

      Engine sputter

      By Celticsfan03 · Posted

      I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
