Hi everyone,

I'm currently in the process of collecting parts for a AWD RB26/30, and just wondering if anyone has used the trust extension frontpipe with the conversion? I've got a BNR32 and a set of Trust extension frontpipes from a R33 or R34( not sure exactly, but I am 100% sure that the R32 O2 sensors don't fit and I will be getting some bushings to thread them in correctly).

I do not currently have these pipes fitted, I'm mainly trying to save myself from buying 400-600 dollars for a set of new turbo elbows or paying someone to fab a new set of downpipes. I have seen posted before that the R33/R34 frontpipes sit a little lower and that you can't run a R32 frontpipe on a R33/34 as it hits the floorboards. Is there any truth to this?

Just figured I would ask and see if anyone had tried it before. Thanks for any input or suggestions!

I have trust extension dumps on my raised deck rb26. If you install your RB30 10mm lower on the k-frame then they will fit, but you will need to chop and re-weld the y pipe a little.

The other side of it is though, I believe they are holding my engine back. A set of 3" midori dumps and a 3" to 3.5" front pipe would be a better option for any RB30 engine.

Thanks for the quick reply. :cheers:

I understand what you are saying about the split dump versus the large single dump. I can probably get a set of 76mm HPI dumps for a decent price, but I'm still stuck modifying the exhaust. Do any companies make or have available dumps for the 26/30? I tried multiple searches on google buy couldn't find much.

Many thanks for the info.

If you go custom, use pre-made 3" dumps and just get the Ypipe made custom.

Chopping up someone elses 3" to 3.5" system and adding a little material/altering the bend angles is easier and will cut down on fabrication time.

Many thanks for the replies.

I will probably do as you suggest and just have them alter the downpipe I currently have fitted and just buy a set of HPI 76mm dumps. A 70mm X 2 --->80mm equal length shouldn't have problems with flow should it?

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
