Hey

Just after a Front pipe for my R32 GTR.

Was wondering this.

The stock R32 GTR Front pipe has the felx joint in it, will I need to get one with the flex joint? Will a aftermarket one made for a R33 GTR fit my R32 GTR??

If I dont get one with a flex joint will it still bolt up ????

Any info be good

Chasp - I picked a used HKS set of front pipes - made a significant difference to the spool up of the terbs.  Mine are just mild steel, but I got them recently ceramic coated to keep the passenger floor cooler! HKS have the single flex also BTW.

Ok thanks

Does anyone know tho if custom front pipes made for r33 gtr with fit a r32 gtr??, and should i get one with flex or not?? or doesnt matter?

ok thanks mate.

Now I know R33 Pipes will fit R32 GTR, But do I need to buy one with the flex?

And also does it matter what brand I get?? all the front pipes ive seen are 2.5" into 3" so I can see how HKS ones can be better then no brand.

Thanks

dont (read) dont need the flex joint.just make sure the pipes are tuned length and the welds are good quality.the pipes we have are 2.5 into 3inch,any pipes that fit this description will be sufficient for your application.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
