Due to the amount of interest in these front pipes on the forum i thought i would organise a group buy.

For this to go ahead we need the following:

Minimum 5 sets

50% deposit prior to order (other 50% paid when goods are picked up)

The price for these will be $1,100 delivered to Sydney all taxes/shipping etc included. For people outside the Sydney area that cannot pickup the only additional charge will be shipping from Sydney to you.

Please bear in mind that while internet companies may quote a cheaper price for these once you include shipping costs and taxes they are condsiderably more expensive to the tune of $1,400 to $1,500 by the time they are here.

I will leave this open for people until the end of this month (June) for people to express interest, if there is not 5 people willing to pay a deposit on 30 June the buy will not go ahead.

This group buy has been made possible buy Advan Performance so you are buying from a reputable company in Australia that will provide receipts.

Here is a pic of the front pipes but please note this is only half the front the pipes.... the rear piece is not pictured in this pic. If someone wants pics of the complete pipes post here and i will get some.

Andrea, Richard here. we have met a couple of times at WSID and weekend before last at Advan (I drive a gunmetal 32GTR).

hmm, that really is a good price for those delivered, considering how much they are even when buying from a backyard net business

ATM I am just tossing up between going Big Single, or sticking with low mount twins. If I decide to stick with twins I think I may get these to keep me happy in the mean time. Would it be too much trouble to get a fitting price from Advan for us?

Thanks,

Richard

Hi Richard :D

I have tried to get the best possible price for them and i think i have. Better than any internet backyard company i have found.

I am in the same situation as you deciding if i should stick with twins or go for the single, it's a tough choice :confused: I really love these pipes and if i get a set i think i will cry if i ever scrape them on a speed hump.

I will get an price estimate on fitment for everyone as a guide. Because the turbos have to come off there will be a few hours involved.

yeah, it is a very nice price.

That would be great on fitting estimate :D

They certainly are the nicest looking GTR dumps/fronts I've ever seen.

Cheers,

Richard

I have had requests for details of what you get so here is a pic of the complete system, nothing else is required.

Remember only 50% ($550) is required in a months time and the rest after the goods arrive which would be approx 3-4 weeks after order is placed so it's the perfect way to spend your tax refund cheque :O

:wavey:

:)

I was just wondering if you had any word yet on a fitting estimate? Doesn't have to be a firm price for us to beat them about the head with, just an estimate would be fine :D

Thanks.

Ok, Due to the fact that the turbos have to come off to fit dump pipes on a GTR there is quite a bit of labour involved unfortunatly as well as costs of coolant etc due to the turbos coming off. So, you would be looking at a cost of approx $700 fitment including coolant etc. I have no idea how that compares to other shops though.

that seem reasonably fair if the turbos have to be removed. If that's the case it would definately be at least a whole days labour.

I will consider what to do... perhaps it may be worthwhile to spend another few K and get turbos at the same time...

Thanks for chasing that up. I'll have a think and let you know before the deadline.

While your doing to turbos, its probably worth doing the manifolds ... :)

Its a shit of a job to change the dump pipes, but its quite possible for the home mechanic over a few days if you feel like saving the cash.

LW.

Will these bolt onto the standard R32 GTR turbos ? How about the cat at the other end? If so put me down for a set - should be in perfect time for my next trip out to Racepace.

Andrea, you certainly are tempting me. I have been thinking about going to big single route, purely because I love the sound of an external wastegate. but my head tells me i'll be better off with a set of 2530s or similar.

I will get back to you before your deadline.

thanks.

No problem Richard, If yourself an lwells decide to purchase then we only need one more for it to go ahead, no pressure or anything lol :jk:

I too love the sound of an external gate but the power that can be made from smallish twins with the right setup is hard to look past, the legalities of the screamer is what worries me.

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
