  1. Most c34s are awd, most r34s are rwd. That makes them substantially different
  2. But there has to be venting for it to actually work as intended, which is why typically a 4 port will be used in that method of plumbing a 3 port above, you would initially hold gate closed with pressure to build boost, then apply pressure under dome to control / lower boost, but there is still pressure trapped on the top so you are screwed .it won't exhaust anywhere because there is no exhaust port! even if you didn't hold gate closed initially, once you put pressure under the diapraghm it will stay there when you swap to the top port, fighting you. unless I am missing something here, which has been known to happen, it really needs to be a 4 (or 5) port valve to work But really turbo smart do list other connection methods which are more typical. Would love to know if people have done it like above and what happened.
  3. That pic is the least common option of all, how did you choose that one?
  4. Crying over a radiator leak at a can recycling place is pretty funny. A leaking radiator tank is pretty standard, nothing special to the jdm world. Hope the can money gets you a new radiator!
  5. Car seems pretty cool, post up some more pics when you get a chance
  6. Doesn't really matter what's not working, because there's no way you would be able to fix it based on that assessment. An auto gearbox won't make a clutch smell. Does it move under its own power?
  7. You are basically rich so might as well get a gtr
  8. Insurance only matters if you crash so just don't crash.
  9. It's a 4cylinder, the inlet ports are Siamese so there is 2. I bet that thing would pretty much stop idling after a few minutes based on where the carby is
  10. But keep in mind it needs to be able to be used in a suck through carby application, which rules out pretty much every turbo on a factory car in the last 25 years at least
  11. But look at the peak gain! And how much cleaner the engine bay looks.
  12. It's really not hard at all to remove the crossover pipe as required, which is not often. Get split fires if you want it to all fit factory. You will have trouble with yellow jackets
  13. No way will you tell the difference between a brass or nylon bushing. The springs are cheap as. Just buy them all and find what you like.. Or do you prefer some random guy to tell you their prefefence?
  14. Looks nice. Curious if those ks are verified?
  15. Dude, you can't have stuff touching the exhaust manifold. You realise inside that stainless braid is plastic? That is just crazy
  16. You are not going to get smoother more precise shifting from a shifter in a skyline.
  17. Except a bleed valve or boost controller can’t ever lower boost below gate pressure.
  18. Because there is no standard. Much like engine building each builder will have their own preference, with most agreeing within a certain range. it’s not clear cut. , and all the tests in the world on an assembled engine won’t tell you if it is about to Grenade itself due to a small mistake/issue.
  19. Catalytic convertors or felines?
  20. The problem is the remote just jogs the flap in the open or closed direction not to a set position. if you hold the open button down, or wire a switch to do it, it will die as the motor will burn out.. Unles something has changed in the last few years.
  21. As above the auto boxes that currently last with decent power all use torque management on up shifts. I would imagine without that the lifespan will go down the drain, and make you sad.
  22. Wiggle back and forth, spray heaps of lube, swear heaps, hit square on with hammer to help shock free, apply heat , regret life choices.just the usual
  23. So it runs shit There's many reasons that is possible. based on that post I guess atmo bov and boost leak f**k knows regarding battery cables, people do weird shit
