If you don't mind high mount for the EFRs then just buy their twin kit :thumbsup:

Me, I'd prefer the stock manifolds and to have the turbs in the factory location :)

Can even use your factory style front pipes with the EFR kit. The full race dumps bolt upto it.

But looks like a disaster under the bonnet

Hi guys, so picked up the HPI dump pipes today. Spoke to the seller and he said the dump pipes should connect to my existing nismo weldina dual 2.5 inch exhaust as the flanges are the same size. I thought the HPI dumps are 3 inch and won't work with my existing exhaust. To cut the story short, I won't have the budget to get the new dual 3 inch exhaust until later this year, my questions is will the dump fit onto the nismo exhaust and is it worth doing it now or wait for the new exhaust and install it all together?

Personally I don't find the standard system that hard to work on, there are a number of people here who have seen me get the turbos off in 2 hours

:O

If your stock dump pipes fit then something tells me that the hpi ones will aswell

I think he means there is going to be a lip going from the 3 inch internal diameter dumps to the 2.5 inch front pipes.

Just do it all at once. Bugger doing stuff multiple times.

can i pay you 2 hours labor next time i need mine swapped?

lol, well it still a bargain even if its a half job??

id then have the option to purchase the re install or

i could now afford to tow it and finish it off myself having saved a fortune and not slicing the f@#k out of my baseball mit hands that fit nowhere.

so for the record im still keen

can i pay you 2 hours labor next time i need mine swapped?

yep sure thing! one question tho, how do you intend to get it out of my driveway with making a mess? Cause I won't be shy to charge cleaning fees

Hi guys, quick update. Took the pods off and changed back to airbox and took it for a few runs (taking piggaz's advice). Couldn't really tell if there are any improvements with lag, feels about the same. It's alot quieter though so I'll leave them on for a bit and see. What I did notice is that after the first run I left the car idling for a few mins, then going for another run it felt slight loss in power. It seems that the R34 Gtr power is affected by under bonnet temperature. So perhaps the airbox is better when in stop/start traffic.

Will report back with next mods hopefully in a few weeks, just saving up a bit.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
