I purchased BATMBL split dump front pipe, and had it put on my car matched with ITS turbo and mechanic told me it is designed for turbos that got wastegate and turbo outlet separated like hks turbos and that is not designed for ITS or even standard turbos which got wastegate and turbo outlet together, is this true and if it is that means that i wasted $450...

doesnt sound true at all i had a batmbl split dump fitted to my stocker r33 hitatchi turbocharger and it fits up fine, the split dump has a section of steel cut out to split the wastegate and exhaust wheel sections. its suited for standard internal gate turbochargers. is the its turbo you have an external gate? if so then yeah it wont suit as its internal gate only

nah its internal gate, any other opinions?

thats what the exhaust housing outlet looks like, the left is the internal wastegate flap. the split dump you got from batmbl matches to that directly and bolts on perfectly. the turbo in the pic is a bnr32 turbo so its a lot smaller but same thing pretty much for r33 gtst, just bigger

Cordiapower....Show us a pic of the type of turbo you have from the exhaust side.

Then we can tell you if the dump you have is compatible.

Some of the older housings with internal gates will not allow for simple fitment of a generic split dump pipe. i.e VL turbo exhaust housings.

ill try to find a photo but it's similar to standard i think, the mechanic reckons that wastegate outlet and turbo outlet should be separate for split dump to work and in its turbo its together so it's gonna cause turbulence, the thing i dont get is he said it cant be used for standard turbo either and i know people from here use it on standard turbo...

Every BATMBL split dump I've seen has a dividing 'tongue' to seperate the turbine outlet from the wastegate section of the stock RB20/25 turbo.

The HKS turbos RB20/25 bolt-on turbos already have seperated turbine outlet and wastegate section so the 'tongue' on the BATMBL dump flange has to be ground off so it will fit on an HKS turbo.

It sounds to me like the mechanic is saying your dump doesn't have the dividing 'tongue'.

Does it have one?

Dump pipe does have dividing tongue (if it means than it has seperated path for turbo and wastegate gases, the thing is i think what he's saying is that turbo and wastegate outlet should be seperated so you can use split dump pipe, while on ITS turbo it's not so wastegate and turbo gases will interfere...

Does the back of the turbo look like the pic posted above? If so the BTMBL dump will work, it may just need a little modification if the exhaust housing is not exactly the same as the stock turbo.

it is reputable imports workshop here in perth, so ill just go normal 3 inches dump for now, the car will make too much power for standard internals anyway, they just dynoed the same car with same turbo and standard computer and it made close to 400hp atw and as i am after only 350hp atw and am using wolf 3d i dont really need to extract every single hp, thanks anyway guys

go to an exhaust shop dude. some mechanics are not very import savvy

    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
