'turbo' Parts On A 'n/a'?

[WESTWD]

Good morning everyone,

i did a quck search and couldnt find what i was after.

I was just wondering if parts that are reccommended for turbo cars could be used for N/A?? Example, exhaust system on JustJap suited for 'R34 GTT coupe' ... would that work/fit a 'R34 GT25 N/A coupe/sedan'

Sorry if question sounds a little silly, just something i don't quite understand.

Thankyou in advance!

Owen.

an exhaust system thats good for a turbo car is usally to big for a N/A, the biggest for a N/A is 2.5 inch

as for other parts im not sure.

3" isnt too big lol i got one on my NA

Do a search on this forum for exhaust and there's plenty of info. Bascially it comes down to volumetric efficiency. Yes 3" will work but response down low is sacrificed. I could go into it in further detail but my flight is boarding now lol

thanks for reply's guys.

i should of made myseld more clear, the exhaust was an example, i have seen parts like, aftermarket pods, silicone hoses, radiator pipes, fuel flters, fuel pumps etc. that say it is for GTT or GTS-T, i would like to know in general if all these types of parts fit/will work with N/A skylines (r33, r34) as well.

Sorry for not making myself clear everyone! hope question makes more sense now.

Cheers.

if you could get a stock turbo catback exhaust then use that. unless you have serious mods then 3" is actually going to reduce your power and be as loud as shit. i have seen results from people putting 3" systems on 3.5L magnas and there was no max power gain from doing it, but there was a drop in low end power, and that is on a car with 1000cc more. even on a 4.0L falcon 2.5" is a big enough exhaust. and before you start bagging out falcons, etc as being shit, it still doesn't alter the fact that a 4.0L engine is going to be pumping out more exhaust gases than a 2.5L

ok, in that case, it really depends on what it is. a lot of stuff is interchangable, sometimes even if the stock items aren't exactly the same. things like pods will usually be 100% universal, not just between skylines, but all cars. it is usually just the adapter that makes it specific to a skyline, etc. radiator hoses and fan belts, etc i would assume would be interchangable. sometimes things can be determined by whether the car has ABS or not. this will often apply to brake parts (i know, captain obvious) but can also apply to other things such as fuel filters (probably not on the skyline though, but i have seen other cars where they are different).

Thanks mad082. your advice did help, but i guess ill just find out about a certain part before i buy it, because as you said, it can vary from part to part which are interchangeable and which are not.

Thanks again.

and then just hope they send you the right thing, LOL. while i haven't had any troubles a guy i know has been given the wrong thing a few times. luckily he just goes there in person so it's easier for him to sort it out.

haha yeah this is true. I havnt had any trouble from justjap, im sure they would help you out on swaping the item over if they did make a mistake anyway.
