Yes you do but time is money. A friend is importing a high mount with manifold, external wastegate, dump etc for less than that but won't get it for a month or two plus the month or two that has already passed since the purchase in japan! All good things come to those with patience! ...... and money....and contacts! however ..that said we wait to see the actual condition of the turbo. importing anything has its risks. the benefits of having your existing turbo high flowed are obvious. Also cheaper option may be to have the bare minimum upgrade done. But I am unclear on pricing. Mabe some of the more experienced forum members will see this thread and give their input on this topic. :fart:

that's good to hear! Did you know that you can pick up a second hand unit from as little as $400, not every one has $2000 to spend on a turbo..... nice excuse though!! :aroused:

The exhaust side is the usual culprit on a skyline, the engine will still start and run if this is the case, but with no power to speak of. if the probem has occured on the inlet side then the engine will have processed the turbine and that is very bad, and rare. :zap:

Thanks for the heads up Inark, nice work, HOLY SHIT D1, this is all happening too soon! There is no hope of me competing in this as i'm a dreamer, But I'll be there with RICE ON!!!! :wassup:

I'm spewing I missed a round! :spew: Ingall has always been over argessive on the track, i say sipping a beer from my HRT stubbie holder signed by the affore mentioned and Larry Perkins, Skaife, on the other hand is always well composed on and off the track. And he used to drive a GTR, can't wait for sports tonight :fight!:

If the exhaust turbine is gone then the dump and cat have to come off, and the small pieces of plastic/ceramic have to be tapped out of the front of the cat. Any workshop will have to store your car while work is outsourced, if you have a good work environment at home I may be able to refer a technician with the relevant experiance to remove and refit for you depending on your location. :wizard: ....sorry love the new smilies!!!

Last time i spoke to Kyp he was not interested in removing and refitting turbos, this was about 3 months ago, he may have changed his mind on this / employed someone else. His main focus is the rebuild itself usually done for workshops around australia. don't sweat it just give him a buzz.He will be able to recommend a workshop to do the remove and re-fit if you are hesitant to take it on yourself. :Bang:

Tint-a-car camberwell is still being operated by Brett and Karen, just call them and tell them you are from SAU and were reffered by Danny or Nathan (DJLETHAL) and they will look after you. I introduced Nathan to Brett and Nathan has organized a few bulk tint days since. Bretts work is Brilliant, ask anyone! :jump:

[i'm happy to do it and "learn about my car" as long as I don't screw it up in the process!!] That's what were all here for, any problems, post them here.

Taking the turbo off is easier than putting it back on, due to the cooling lines, some of the bolts are hard to get at and are very tight, be prepared to bleed from the knuckles a little and swearing is good too! altogether fairly straight forward for some one who is mechanically inclined, BTW, ATP won't remove and refit. and you would be surprised how many workshops Kyp does work for. very good idea for you to do it yourself to learn about your car:uh-huh:

You dags, lol, i fit ok with the roof closed just not the sliding roof lining! drove a volvo s40 with my head out the roof once, the guys following me nearly hit me they were laughing so hard! :freak:

I think i am in love, that is what it's all about, last time i was in something like that was flying qantas to sydney :crazy:

32 for track work 33 for the road :crazy:

R33 series 1 & 1.5 have ceramic exhaust impellers series 2 have plastic r34 plastic again. The engines themselves will handle more boost, but the electronics and fuel systems will run out of legs before the engine does.

I didn't want one with a sunroof, but ended up with one! My head touches the roof and i cant drive it with the lining closed, but at the end of the day it's a skyline I'm still in love :whackit:

That is one sweeeeeet 33

Kyp at A.T.P. 1198 Dandenong Rd Murrumbeena VIC 3163 ph: (03) 9569 4764 (Advanced Turbo Performance) I am not sure on prices, give him a call

Very shagadellic baby. that's awesome redback, I wish i had the room for that, my boot is full of tools! the head unit fits perfectly, what is it? Carefull of those ear drums.

Gotta see this photo man, just say you were trying to wave and jour hand got confused! I love your work nexus9

Niiiiice, nothing like the smell of a new engine running in, the hot paint, the smoke coming out the edge of the bonnet at the first few intersections, enjoy!

That's gotta suck! can you tell us all how the lean situation came about? my 'line is too rich due to increased boost with no real mods. thats gonna hurt your hip pocket

You wan porn cwaka wid dat sir? Looking very shagadellic baby YEAH!! Rims came up a treat, Bar gives me a bar! Its all good, now all you need for xmas is under car neon like me! Congrats man you've worked hard. see you soon

I choose 'It's all good' Will Smith, Big Willie Style track 12. Or how about 'don't worry be Happy' by that guy who killed himself!

In my experience silicon seems to promote rust, i would use windscreen skin forming caulking compound, its black and gooey! Make sure to clean off hands before touching genitals!

Funky one, you just add more capacitors until the duration suits, if it becomes too messy just add the values together and get a cap of similar value to replace them.
