I fitted one to my beast the other week and had my brother help me out, we had no hoist, just car stands and it took around 2 hours to pull off the old system and slap in the new one few beers to kill some time aswell.

Only problem we had was that 1 of the nuts that fit to the turbo cannot be put on due to the size and curve of the pipe bottom nut hits the pipe no chance of it going on, we used all 3 gaskets and did them tight drive it for awhile and retightend them and no leeks yet.

As for the sound it was a big notice from standard did seem loud in the cab but outside it was a reasonable level dosn't seem to be cop bait to me. Performance was huge mid range torque massive now have no traction in first gear and second and is only running on around 5 cylinders as faulty coil packs, so dont notice high boost that much as it farts and pops wont rev. Got my car not long ago from Japan and seems to be stock all bolt-ons are except for my Apexi pod.

I will try to change my phone format as I have a video of the sound on that.

Definately recommend getting one.

i just installed the front dump and am very happy with it.

not too loud at all, infact much quiter than the old catback system at idle (not at high revs tho)

car runs much harder

you have no traction in 1st and second gears? only due to an exhaust upgrade and only running on 5 cylinders too. . .? i call bullsh.t! :nyaanyaa::domokun:

if ya want akeenan i will take ya for a strap, oohhh by the way it does have an Nismo ECU :blink: , doin some 80 corners the other day at 140 (I know shouldn't) top end of 3rd and started to loose the traction crappy tyres i guess.

    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
    • Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.  
    • Nice, let me know how you find the 98 tune
    • Put a hand on an injector and see if that's what the buzzing is. You might be triggering the injectors by moving off idle command.
    • Ah, should have been clearer. Currently has a flex sensor installed all good to go.    like u mentioned, I’ve only ever known the car on e85, I might hate 98, but I have to try it out first. Everyone says the -5 turbos get pretty laggy on 98 octane tho…
