How would that sound? Would it be bad in any way because where i live it's pretty redneck and theirs no air laws and cats. Plus i get bugged about how quiet my car is so i think it would be awsome to finish my exaust to the Catback with all my own fabbed piping and do the external wastgate setup i want like that with just enough piping to get under the car. I'm a full time welder/fabricator and i have allot of time to think about how cheap i could make my own turbo setup (minus exaust and intake manifold) and if this is an acceptable setup in some way thats not damaging i'd do it, plus it would mean i dont need to cope the wategate pipe into the dump pipe i'd make.

Any gained performance or is it just to give your car a sleeper sound till it's pinned

Yay Another Screamer Pipe Thread :)
Yep, then it will turn into a "help i was defected and sent to the EPA" thread
nah it'll turn into a "f*cking police are SHIT" thread, even though it's all his own fault :P

pfft... cops dont scare me, i can write out my own roadies at work anyway. besides my car doesnt exactly stand out. ive owned it for 2 and a half years and ive only been pulled over once. and im not on "p's" either.

and you are all forgetting... it will only be loud when the wastegate opens, and that only hapens when you hit full boost. and i dont plan on flogging it sideways past a cop car anytime soon.

These threads are getting as popular as "missfire at 4500rpm"

My gate starts to open at about 2-3 psi.

Oh btw - WTF is with peoples obsesion with screamers any way?

2rismo u had one with your GT35r do you rekon it woulda made any difference horsepower wise if it was plumbed in?

It may have as I only ran a 3" exhaust but if the exhaust system was adequate to flow the total amount of gas including that being bypassed by the gate and if the wastegate pipe is merged appropriately, there's no reason why you can't have it plumbed back.

I wanted it venting externally because of the wank value - nothing more. I think it makes RB's sound tough as shit but on a standard turbo? No thanks. I've heard a few of them and they sound rubbish. Maybe just bad examples, who knows...

maybe you guys could make your own "on your high horse thread"..lol

...everyone knows there illegal and loud as are external gates..who cares, they sound tough...when it comes to imports, theres always going to be issues with defect notice's, it just depends what you get done for first, but agreed they only really work well with external gates as to standard turbo with a screamer pipe...just my 2c worth..

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
