Give Kermit a call. He'll do it for cheaper than that, but its still expensive. Taking off the dump is tedious work. Thats why its expensive. Its because you have to really take your time taking out the bolts. Lots of WD40 involved. If you snap them, which can easily happen, its a real bitch.

Just do the whole lot. You'll want in done later anyway. Seriously give Kermit a call. It will be a lot cheaper than Tommy says if Kermit does it. He does awesome prices and really good work. Give him a call for sure.

Unless your not planning on changing your current turbos for a long time, wait til you upgrade turbos to do dumps.

Otherwise you'll be spending that $500-$1K in labour twice.

As said previously, front pipes are easily done, any exhaust shop can do it for around $100 (i had front pipes + catback changed for $80)

i do plan on upgrading the turbos sometime in the future so i guess the dumppipes will have to wait, i dont see the point of installing the same parts twice and spending half a "k" doin it...well cheers for the info guys

Are you guys serious? GTR's are a turbo-out job to replace the dumps?

That sux!

33R & 34R dumps are better than the 32R ones(apparently), so you probably wouldn't notice the difference til you upgrade turbos anyway.

I'm hoping the previous owner of my GTR in Japan swapped the 34R dumps over when he put the 34R turbos on :D

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
