Morng mangs!

Anyone know the size of the stock RB25 turbo inlet? Is it 2 3/4"?

How hard is it to get some piping that will go from the stock intake up to 4"? Don't know the first thing about where to look. Or could I just use a silicone joiner that goes from my intake pipe -> 4" inlet on a new turbo?

Just about any performance shop should be able to make up something for you.

I don't think you'll be able to use a silicone joiner as the stock intake pipe is plastic. If you use a pod you MAY be able to clamp the stock intake onto a short bit of ally the right size then use a silicone joiner to bring it up to 4". But that will be a big restriction in the inlet...

over 9000

This.

you can slide a 2.5" pipe over the inlet nicely. I did this with my old setup on the Telstar. Cut 2 slits in the pipe and clamped it to the inlet.

I cant find a pic of it, but if I do I'll post it up.

I also hate rain and being in places that require some travel. I'm lucky I wasn't in Rocky a day later than I was, otherwise I'd still be there.....

im lucky i left my girlfriends place when i did. 2 days later the weir river cut the road so now the skyline would have no chance of getting out, i need a 4wd

@Colin: Contact this guy: http://motamota.r31skylineclub.com/index.php?topic=132962.msg1525770#msg1525770

Also @ Colin: I put fuel in the Pergeot, it took almost 55L and wasn't even empty yet. So yeah, it just has an epic big tank for a small car.

Also @ Colin: Are your rims 4/5 stud or just 4 stud? I may actually be interested if they are 4/5...

So we could get 5% off if we get 4 turbos high flowed at te same time by hypergear. He starts back at work around 8th feb...

I don't know about Colin but I'm 100% stud ! LOL

Well that's like $50 off, which is not bad, but not good enough for me to wait around till the end of January. I'd rather pay the extra $50 and get my car back on the road sooner...

So if you can sort out your four so we can send them off next week them I'm in, otherwise I'm out.

Thanks Dude :)

@Colin: What was the name of that tuning place you were telling me about?

It doesn't matter if you wanna pay more or not, he's not back at work til the 8th

Unless you were talking about someone other than hypergear?

    • Yeah, that's when. I guess you could say I'm as patient as I am foolish(or just a masochist?🤔). I've strongly considered throwing in the towel and calling it all quits many times, and have almost done so. It's a first-world problem for sure, but I've had a pretty rough go of it, as well as other factors; hoping something good comes of all this; it has to. It definitely is half the price of the ATS and performs great, but I'd like to try something different for once. I've sampled the ATS in a friend's 32 and it's solid👍
    • I know mentally you're set on the ATS clutch but honestly I'm a big fan of the Nismo Super Coppermix Twin. It's much cheaper and in some ways I think it's a better design for a street/circuit car.
    • Just checked in first post and you should be able to bring it home November this year, right? I'm amazed you made it through four years of this. As hard as it feels now the rest will go by in a breeze in hindsight, I'm sure.
    • Realized I haven't been back here in a while. Still here, still alive, still waiting for the car.  I went back again the only time last year from Oct-Nov for R's Meeting and drove it around some more, including a few laps on Fuji Speedway(in the wet, sadly). The car still feels good, but have a couple small things to address. I've been getting more parts but have slowed down still, and most of the bigger purchases are now out of the way. I find myself getting impatient more and more when it comes to getting started on this project; it's quite hard for me not being able to really dive in and start making this car my own because it's halfway across the world. At times it doesn't even really feel like I own one of these. Haven't really been motivated or had the desire to document the last trip on here or social media for, well, reasons... but here's some pics...it's also still alive and well as you can see: I've narrowed down to the last large part purchases(anything over $2k) before the engine build to be: 1) Ohlins Road & Tracks 2) ATS Twin Carbon clutch 3) Endless BBK with some custom options and 4) Kansai Service carbon driveshaft I don't think the budget exists for all of these this year, but I'll try for one or two items I think. Though, every time I look at my spreadsheet I sigh, shake my head, and get depressed just that little bit more.  'til later.
    • It's a stunning location!  I've been to NZ twice but haven't made it to the North Island yet.  Definitely on the cards but the South Island is hard to tear yourself away from too... Looking forward to see what you can wring out of it once you can get it to hold together!  Be awesome to get a low 11 or even sneaking into the high 10's pass out of it.  That's a bloody quick car that most people will never experience in their life.  Enjoy!
