Does anyone know if they produced fake Synapese Synchronix gates? Anyway to decipher if one of them is a fake or not?

The price. I think mine was about $550 for 50mm

If you want to be sure you can buy direct from Synapse Engineering:

Hey all just resurrecting a zombie thread from last year to look for a bit of advice.

I have a split flange t4 manifold for an rb26 and it has provision for two 38mm v-band external wastegates.

I don't want to cheap out on the wastegate (or boost control in general) as I spent a fair bit of money building the motor itself.

So far the only reputable brand that seems to have a suitable wastegate is the TiAL.  I have seen them priced in the AUD$300's.

My questions are:

1) Are there any other reputable brands as an alternative to TiAL that do a 38mm v-band (turbosmart only seem to have flanged items)

2) who is the best priced supplier from whom to get a genuine item in Australia?  I'm a bit wary of ebay as some of the replicas look very convincing.

I have the 40mm turbo smart Vband gates. They aren't that much bigger than the 38mm tials.
I might have mine for sale soon as I just bought another car with a full setup. Still brand new in a box of your looking for some

Will it be possible to fit 40mm onto the 38mm manifold flanges without any issues? I haven't used v-bands before so not really sure how they work.  Don't want to have any sealing issues.

When you say they aren't that much bigger, do you mean the physical dimensions of the thing? Do they have ports for water cooling as well?

Hey mate, not sure if the 40's will fit onto 38 flanges. I'm sure someone else here will know though.

Yes they aren't much bigger in physical size, that was the main reason I bought them. Tial prices are now through the roof so I got the 40mm turbo smarts for a better price.

      There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:

      And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.

      Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.

      I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.

      Deeve, I don't suppose that you've made any progress on this? My Stagea has the exact same problem, and just like you, I've read through as much as I can online, with no real progress. My car isn't throwing any codes at all, which is a little frustrating. I've changed plugs, checked the wiring and harness. A new MAF gets here next week, but I'm not hopeful it will solve the issue.
