So I am havingbserious trouble fitting aftermarket split dump pipes to my rb26.

long story short, the front dump elbow doesnt clear the rear turbo inlet pipe.

so, I have noticed people saying that the stock,dumps flow well and alot of people saying they are shite. Now my theory is that they will flow alot more than people think.

Yes they dont look pretty inside but they made a healthy 312awkw for me with a 3inch exhaust.

I am currently puttingnmy new setup together.

hks 2540s

ARC intercooler 70mm

hks super dragger 3.5inch exhaust.

e85

now rather than spending $500-800 on dump pipes I may not need. Can anybody vouch them? I am looking to make 370awkw maybe more but im not fussed on a number. Just want to enjoy the car.

so has anyone made 370awkw or close on stock dumps.?

Cheers

Blake

Ps. I trawled threads but didnt find anything conclusive enough to make the D

yeah Im aware of the hks 2540s being mismatched etc. But honestly I dont mind the lag at all.

so Piggaz, you say u made 412awkw on stock dumps?

76mm seems prettt excessive for 1.3L of airflow. I would almost say you would lose velocity with pipes that large at my power level.

my 400+rwkw xr6turbo is only running a single 75mmmm dump with internal gate.

basically after lunching my xr6ts gearbox im low on cash and am hoping to get away without spending too much on extra stuff like dumps.

at the moment I cant see enough evidence to suggest that I need afternarket dumps. but thanks for the input. keep it coming

412 on split dumps.

Dumps are not expensive, a set of HPI units and job done.

Depends on what factory dump pipes you have, they are all different and the 32 ones will struggle to flow 370kw, the 33 and 34 ones will be a restriction at that power aswell just not as much as the 32 ones, that said you can blow a golf ball through a length of garden hose if you blow hard enough :P

Well the reason I questioned it is that my xr6turbo flows over 400rwkw with a single internally gated gt3540 and a 3.5inch dump. That's 4L single with a single 3.5inch dump vs 2.6L at similar power with twin 3inch dumps? That just seems a little excessive to me.

I have hks mid pipes and hks 3.5catback so I am going to spend the money elsewhere and post my results. After all, I'm not chasing every last Kw and it's more money for things like oil separators and things I'll need later.

Thanks for the inputs

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
