Front/dump Pipe Same As R33?

[kidafa]

Just wondering if the front/dump pipe of a r33 gtst is the same as the ones for a s1 stag... dont see why it wouldnbt be as their both running rb25det's.

Justjap also have the same pipe listed for r33/r32 and wgnc34's....

Thinking about buying a 3" bellmouth zx force dump pipe tomorrow for the stag. Then time for a retune of SAFCII, SITC and EBC and i think im done on engine mods till its time for a bigger whistling friend. Maybe time for some slotted rotors.

I've been asking the same question. Wanted to know if my 32 dump/front pipe would fit a S2.

[kidafa]

Well chad how about I be the test dummy and ill post up how it goes

Also when are we taking both our racing heart equiped stags out with jetskis in tow?

R33 fits S1 Stagea. Goes pretty close to floor but I have had no problems. No idea about R32.

I think if you buy one of the cheap brand dump pipes the R33 & R32 are the same pipe, the one I got for my 32 didn't sit quite right, so I suspect it was an R33 one. I used the one off my 32 on my S2 stagea and I had to cut it and realign the angle at the bottom straight section. Also had to add about 25mm length to the pipe to get it to meet up properly, this is for the S2 though.

When you tell me where i can get a decent tow bar from.

JJR dump pipe i got of justjap was listed for s2 .

think JJR forgot about the crossmember. had cut and straighten out the front/dump to fit it.

not alot of work. but for one that is listed to fit, it should fit

had the same thing with my s2 and the just jap bellmouth.. the quality at the turbo end flange was very average to.

i would not recomend the jjr bellmouth as you will need to spend the extra money going to the exhaust shop for them to fix it

[kidafa]

Ok so it did fit.

When i first started the car their was a VERY ANOYING WEIIR vibration coming through the floor of the car around the G box area. Last for about 20 secs.. then dissapeared? Thinking it might have been hitting the floor of the stag, then settled itself down?

Drove around for a bit to let the beast warm up then gave it some. Car hit highest boost it ever has (13.something psi) so I turned down the ebc till it was hitting 12. So it must have made a difference

Well the place I got mine from was well priced but they Fu(ked my rear bar (ended up getting it resprayed for me) and the interior needed some adjusting by myself before it all layed flat in the boot. Want to meet up so you can check it out?

[kidafa]

So this vibrating was their thismornign again....

Took of the G box support cos it was might close to that and buzzed 2 mm off it on the very outer edge near the dump(its not sturctual dw!) Start up and its gone... Then it rattle a tiny bit again grrrr!

Realised its prob a mm or 2 from the floor of the stag and sometimes will vibrate on it but only for first couple of seconds or randomly for a couple of seconds when going slow.. Ill see how it goes and if it does it at all while cruising or at traffic lights.

Sure man, sounds good. I should be picking up the Stag on Wednesday, I'll prob be cruising around all weekend in it

If it keeps doing it just take it down to an exhaust shop and they should be able to heat the pipe and bend it slightly, if its stainless it might be to hard to bend.

[kidafa]

yeah it only just taps it a tiny bit when it first starts then its gone....? Might loosen off the cat bolts a tiny tiny bit and see if that drops it down abit...

If that doesnt work ill take it off spray the seciton of pipe and under car where i think its rubbing drive around for a week or soo. rip it off and c where the paints gone to work out what i need to either smack flat or remove or if i need to get it bent slightly.

Yep that'll work if you haven't got a gas set and its just touching in one small area.

[kidafa]

well this morning their was no vibration or tapping on the floor of the car when it started??

[webng]

Hey Chris, good to hear you got it on.

When i fitted mine myself, if you remember i wasn't too sure if it was on/sealed 100%. So when i got my 100k service, i got the guys at Boostworx to have a look at it. They told me a couple of bolts had dropped off (probably because i didn't/couldn't get them tight enough to start with) and they redid the entire thing properly. Maybe it's a bolt rattling around somewhere?

[kidafa]

Hi nick! Long time no see Yeah their a prick to get at those bolts but it wont be one loose.... Got to them all in the end did change one of them to a 6mm allen key so it had a smaller head cos the bolt was fouling on the dump.

Dont really want boostworx doing much to the stag apart from tuning safcII and SITC truth be known, but we'll keep why off the forums cos their good blokes.

[kidafa]

Well I went to D N T performance (exhaust shop here in adelaide) on sat to get a 3" off cut to do the intake pipe mod, while i was their I told them about the dump pip tapping the floor. They said to unbolt the cat back and just pull the dump pipe downwards to bend it a tiny bit. Yesterday arvo gave it a good yank and its all sweeettttt

[kidafa]

Well thismorning it was all good no tapping... BUT

Thisarvo after work the f**ker tapped on the floor again! So its obversly bending itself over time

Ideas?

[QWK32]

your alot more game than i would be, pulling down on the pipe, i'd be worried about damaging the turbo casting. lol

just take it to the exhaust shop you went to and see if they'll fix it up for you, if you go in they aren't too busy, and you have cash with you, they'll probably fix it up cheap for you. it will only need to be cut and re-angled, maybe a small length added into it. shouldn't need to take the pipe out to fix up, we didn't when i fitted mine.
