I have fitted a few highmount ones, haven't seen the low mount yet. What kind of information were you after?

The old saying 'you get what you pay for' comes to mind... But they work ok and flow the numbers.

picked up good spool

picked up good power

price was good

had to get the internals cleaned up and the flanges faced as they were warped.

when i contacted Hybrid about the issues, no f**ks given essentially

he may have offered me to send it back at my cost and he would have faced it for me, but when i am in Perth and he is in NZ and my car is at a workshop - no dice

thats why i spent some time on the die grinder etc as it looked dodgy without a tidy up

Yeah i did do that and flushed the hell out of it as best i could afterwards. Still lots of welds inside that were unreachable.

Im no welder or anything but it didnt look like the job had been filled with argon/c02 before welding.. A 6 boost highmount is going to be a no-brainer in the future.

I dont know, i think mine was from the first batch he made so maybe they are better now.

I've seen a few people who have had internal weld slag let go and destroy a turbine.

That's enough to send me packing.. Even though they are cheap and work reasonably well. The risk is high as the turbo generally costs a lot more than a HybridNZ manifold.

If they can get that issue resolved they will have a great product... But when the things are flying out the door regardless I don't think it is even on their agenda.

    • 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
