I have a GTR r33.

Im looking for some new dumps.

They all look very much the same to me...

Is there any major differances between the major brands eg trust, Hks, Tomei etc?

Is it worth getting one over another?

Im going to get a set of 2860s turbos of some description to go wid the dumps

I have the tomei ones they look awesome, if they work half as good as they look it will be good, fit perfect also. I picked them up for 600 for the pair new. I dont like the HKS split ones (or their copies) as the main feed it too small in my opinion and the single large dump works better.

I too like the Tomei ones

Stock ones are pretty good (in fact - really good) - not too keen on the HKS ones.

Apparently Nismo make a cast 1 piece one as well - $$$$ I am guessing.

Also there is HPI - though they look pretty similar to tomei...

Yer i like the Tomei ones, they look hot shame u cant see them lol

600 good price to!

there are plenty of choices. The stock dump pipes are restrictive and the exhaust housing of the turbo often has overlap on the dump flange making it really need a good port matching.

Hard to go wrong except for the el'cheapo china units. They often need work to align the flanges and as a result may bolt on and actually perform worse than stock.

Hpi, mines, tomei, oodles of choices. Look around for second handies for the bargain buys, as long as it is made of decent stainless and the flanges are true you can't go wrong.

I picked up a set of mines dumps and apexi front, all second hand stanless for 400 delivered. Might not be as nice as a new shiny pipe, but how long is your new shiny pipe going to look that way? I can't even see any of it so looks don't matter much.

I dont see the point in the tomei units...fair enough they look mint. Who here is using them with a twin 3inch into one front pipe? Cos if youre not theres no point in having a dump with a 3inch outlet....

Just buy the Just Jap split stainless dumps. A bit less turbulence that stockers in the gate pipe and same 2.5 inch outlet, same size as most aftermarket front pipes. Makes perfect sense. The JJ ones fit perfectly too.

Dont buy ebay ones. They dont fit. Theyre a throwaway. Tried myself LOL.

Oh, and the tomei manifolds look mint too. But the cast stockers match ported do the same job and are half the price at the end of the day. And stronger. And wont ever crack.

The JJ ones are shite. And will be worse than stock if you aren't bothered to check the matching of the flange to the turbos and get rid of the overlaps.

When they do bolt on they have rather crappy flange alignment so unless you like poor flow you get the die grinder out for a few hours. I've now seen enough of these to know quality control is an afterthought.

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
