i would also like to see some proven results, we all just asume that the more we spend the better the results are going to be?

ive just fitted HKS 25/30's and fitted R33 GTR dumps as they are a bit larger than the R32 GTR ones (look a bit resrictive).

I would recommend the trust MX dump pipe and front pipe kit. It will cost around $1400, But it is the best design I have seen. The dump pipes are split and about twice the length of HKS ect with a shorter front pipe. These are the ducks nuts.

The Trust MX pipe is a regular aftermarket front pipe (~$500). You talking about the Trust/Greddy Front Extension Pipes.

What about these X-force dump pipes to suit a 32/33 GTR.

They are only $499 for the pair through JustJap.com

They are just HKS knockoffs. The split is too short.

the trust and ces long-wastegate style dumps are the only ones of that type I've seen. ces do little things like put a reverse trumpet shaped taper on the turbo outlet flange that increases in size up to the engine pipe diam.

for the money a set of HPC coated comp style dumps would be my preference. if you're going to spend $1500 ballpark it's worth going a bit further to get the 'finer' details.

if Trevor does the test on the weekend i'm happy to organise a group buy, he's done them before but i'll have to get some idea of who'd be interested. the last group buy through advan for the trust models @ $1100 fell over due to lack of interest.

The only thing I would change if I was doing it again would be to use forged rods and stronger head bolts. These items will limit me to around the 350awkw mark – which was kind of easy to get to by the way.

yopu can push it too 400rwkw safely on stock rods with upgraded bolts.

many doing it

and this is where the $ really tell, because you won't get a set of these suckers for under about $1500. so we're back to square 1 ie yes it's better but how much/is it worth it.

my trust "front extension" split dumps or whatever they are called...

were under $1000 (not inclu postage) which isnt that much ontop... had it not been for a certiain moron not sending my parts as i asked i'd have not even needed to pay Import duties, which makes them very reasonable for the price and what you are getting.

Here is a pic of em... very farken nice

they look good nismoid. couple of questions:

1 where from?

2 how much all up?

3 does the front pipe section have a flex pipe?

4 how big is the merged pipe? 3 inch, 3.5 inch?

Thanks mate.

thats not my pic lol, i stole it :)

mine are still in customs.

From nengun $950 approx, not inclu delivery as i got a lot of other things at the same time.. so probably just break the $1000

no flex

Where the two come together asfter the splits... i think its 3"

but im just gonna not be using that i dont think... going a twin system from the dumps

Yep, good point the Nengun option is always worth considering.

I thought the trust pipes had no flex but i've seen photos of something similar, like those posted by Ronin, that has a flex joint. are they copies or have trust changed the design?

    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
    • Run some injector cleaner through it I had a similar issue that plagued me for months, even tried replacing the cat. If one or more injectors are blocked up the ecu sees ping so pulls timing and makes the tune rich overall, you'll see black smoke coming out of the exhaust and like me assume it's running rich but it could only be one or two cylinders  $10 bottle of injector cleaner and the next time I hit boost it pumped out a huge plume of black smoke, cleared the blockage and then ran great, if that's not the issue it's only a cheap thing to try haha
