Thanks for the replies, ‘Sorry it was a concept I thought of whilst having a drink cheers

Asking everyone, Considering I might be in a well policed area, would a screamer pipe with (for example) a varex type valve arrangement, be a sound exercise to explore so as to be able to vent to atmosphere then when required, then be able to feed back into the main exhaust at your settings of choice up to 100% recirculating? would this be too risky and unmanageable to tune correctly?

Do you trust that your mechanic/his apprentice didn’t do a “Ken Block” road test?

Also, if you have had bad vibrations previously make sure u replace the gearbox/tailshaft seal…sorry, propshaft seal

Sorry mate, Swiper hasn’t been on this site since June 2011

Thank u, enjoyed going down the variable/ fixed rabbit hole. i like the FPG bolt on A/C kit

@GTSBoy Any chance u wouldn’t mind expanding on that, please mate?

Maybe of interest, a little while ago I spoke to one of the guys from Rajab Racing Developments and he hinted to me they could be developing a new cast exhaust manifold. Incidentally, they have already made one for the barra and it looks functional

I dm’d him about 6yrs ago and he still hasn’t opened/replied lol

@Dose Pipe Sutututu thank you so much, understand what u mean and appreciate that info

Would a 74mm be fine for a Neo 25, 98 fueled 300wkw or 68 would be more appropriate?

As Dose said before, if u want to spend cash do it on more value for money stuff. But if u have the cash this is cool, but it’s designed to sit on top of the RB25 lower shell

Yes you do mate

I had teins on my Forester turbo, loved them to a degree because of the EDFC. Well 2yrs ago my son realigned my suspension geometry for me resulting in two non serviceable coil overs. Was not going to replace with more teins as I hated the ‘crunches’ and through your spine stiff as a mofo impacts. So, I spoke to MCA and they set me up with some soft street duty coil overs for about $2,400. Night and day but still on the stiffer side

lol I felt the same, I have been lucky being recommended the GOOD cheaper tyres cause I was doing it tough and rego was up. They did well but I gave them the respect of a stripper lover and just chilled in my everyday car. My Skyline will only ever have capable street tyres

Cheers so much bro, I asked cause I remembered there being one or two wide bands that kept failing

Is there a preference to brands for longevity and accuracy mate?

Oh… I also immediately got rid of it as soon as I got it back, I no longer need heart meds lol

I had a 2010 Golf 1.4l tsi. About 4 yrs ago, I got engine warning light so took to VW dealership, just to have it assessed was $800 upfront and if they termed it was a intrinsic engine fault the $800 would be wavered. They found I had two cracked pistons (I had researched this was a common fault if not using premium but was classed as a defect without the need for recall) ‘I was advised by my mechanic mate to write a sob story to head office but say how good the service etc from VW was awesome and how I want to stay with the brand cause they make great cars. Somehow I won and it was fixed out of warranty, would have cost me $6-8,000 incidentally, the inside A pillar was covered the whole way done with recall correction stickers, over ten im so sorry you got shafted mate

Who are You to deny Yourself?! Lol

Man, you hit both balls out of the park

hey Tao Is there any power/response differences between choosing your; plumb back external waste gate via the std exhaust manifold system and the turbo bleed off waste gated plumb back dump pipe? RB25 neo Sorry if this is a dumb question

He hasn’t been on this site since August 2016 unfortunately mate cheers, 🍻

Nice switch over mate, Do you mind telling us what dbw parts or kit u got please? cheers, Ian

Hey Guys, ‘just wondering if u have thought about adding a thumbs up emoji to the group reply/respond emoji list. There’s times when I want to show I agree/approve a point but I’m restricted to a heart emoji. I do like some stuff and love others, rarely would I use a trophy. A thumbs up fills that hole. cheers, ‘Ian
