My Custom Long Split Dumps For Gtr

[femno]

Just thought it would be good to share with my fellow fabricators my custom long split dumps for my GTR.

Basically i though f**k paying almost a grand for trust extended dump and front kit, ill make my own!

In a nutshell, I started off with some Just Jap stainless dumps, chopped the gates off and extended them, welded up the holes in the main pipes where the gates used to plumb back in.

I bought some stainless 1.5 inch mandrel bends and chopped and used those to make the gates.

Im no expert welder with the mig, but by the end of doing these i wasnt too shabby...(being modest)...thats why i grinded back most of

the welds cos they looked shit haha. My flange weld isnt too bad cos that was the final bit...

Did a bit of test fitting with a spare block and head...bloody tight fit it was...

I plan to plumb the gates back into the main pipes when i do my custom dual 3 inch zorst...!

Comments welcome! Dont be too harsh tho.

i wanted to do something like this while the motor was out, but just didnt have enough time,

Looks like it'll work good Femno

brilliant. I was just about to start on exactly this job since they've just change our race regulations to free exhaust systems. We'll run similar setup except keep front and rear turbo exhaust seperate as well - so 4 pipes straight out the side.

the thing that worries me most is clearance putting the motor in since ours comes in and out all the time and physical space for the pipes, especially the front one.

what diameter is the wastegate pipe? 1inch?

Duncannnn!

nice pipes. never been a big fan of the HKS style dumps as they have 2 pretty small pipes. I'm converted to the big bell mouth dump which lets the gas expand as much as possible as quickly as possible, but yours look like they will work well.
