dump pipes are off the turbo's yes. I recently bought some HKS split dumps. Most people have that type, but a few also have the trust dumps which are longer, so that wastegate gasses don't mess with turbine gass flow as much...

Are they in a kit that includes gaskets, crush washers etc?

Mick from Signature (0403 215 300) also fabricates a great set of dump pipes, I should have a set on my car in the coming months.

Give him a call and check them out. He always tests all his designs and fabrications for improvement.

i was under the impression that the HKS ones are not long enough in the seperation part....Trust styled ones apparently work a lot better. anyone confirm this?

CES appaerently makes good dump/front pipes. but it is VERY expensive. not mentioning the effort of taking the turbos off.

Yup, fitting the dumps is a pain in the ass. Labour will cost you nearly as much as the dumps themselves unless you are going to do it yourself. I fitted the HKS ones to my old GTR when I had the engine out modifying the sump. I definately noticed the difference in response with them fitted. The TRUST ones are supposed to be better again.

So glad to be away from the cost of the GTR :dry:

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
