I got a .60/.63 off a mid-80's 300zx today at the yard. They pulled for $100 Can so about 75-80 USD. Not bad, fairly goo condition but a little dirty.



But when it come to the wastegate housing I've got this 7 bolt

There is NO way I can run this!


Anybody know of a 7bolt wastegate housing that I can use. Otherwise I'll have to go to an external wastegate

 

I was looking at that. That downpipe is cast too isn't it? I don't think you can cut that flange and weld onto it. I don't know what to tell you about the flange man.

is that a wideband !!

 

Maybe the guy at weirracing could help you out? I'd try to contact him if I were you.

 

Ya, I dont think aaron(weirracing) has any thing for that. I'm gonna need that whole wastegate flange and all that using a 7 bolt design. I just might get aaron to make a block off style flange and go external.

Oh well, and No for all I know it's not a wideband.

 

just cut it closer to the flange and weld your exhaust right to it

 

^^^^^ Has cross my mind but I don't want to be too hackish!

 

hack that flange off so its lighter to ship, send it to weir, and have him make a flange. better yet, got a gasket from it?

 

Problem is I don't need a flange, I need a Swinggate housing like on a internally gated t3, but with 7 bolts instead of 5.

Anyway, Weir is a 20min drive from me, I would just drop it off at his house.

Can anybody tell if I could modify a 5bolt and make it work, is the wastegate hole in the same position?
