A drag engine is not even close to ideal for a street car. as are many of the things people run on drag engines. High rpm horsepower on a drag engine is not acheived the same way you acheive drivability on a street car.

Drag cars and formula one cars are a little bit different to a car car thats going to be driven at half the rpm. At 10 000 rpm yes it is going to hinder flow. Yes it does affect response. Thats why I said it makes the car gain rpm slower. Its not a wives tail. And two of my cars drove like shit with large exhausts.made them feel f**king dead at around 4000 rpm. And do u honestly think that natrually asperated engines can never have an exhaust to big. U can litrally hear when an exhaust is too big. It sounds shit. Very shit

Your car is loud becuase the oversized exhaust it preventing it from running as nissan engineers designed it to. How can an engine that isnt running as it should sound any good? Or has the years of development in internal combustion engines been wrong?

No it doesnt sound good. Have you ever heard of back pressure. Naturally asperated engines rely on it. The same as two stroke engines rely on an expansion pipe. engines without sufficent back pressure sound like absolute ass. They run poorly and are slower to gain rpm. The person who sold you a 3.5 inch exhaust for a 2.5 litre engine with no form of forced induction is a moron. What is wrong with people. there is a calculation to obtain maximum exhaust size for a given car. Just because something is loud doesnt mean it sounds nice. does a lawn mower sound nice? Does an ecotec with no mufflers sound nice? My track car with a side pipe sounds like ass on the street because of how loud it is. And thats with forced induction. It would sound even worse without it. Read up on back pressure.

Pm sent to toff about ecu. Text sent to unknown about fmic lol

Rb25 det bottom end, good condition. $350 front mount kit to suit 33 gtst. $100 Exedy clutch disk on standard pressure plate. $100 33gtst Ecu manual. Remap to suit zorzt fmic pod 12psi. $100 33 rear upper arms. $30 pair hks super pod (mushroom) $20 bmc super touring pod (huge surface area) $20 All parts good condition Text me if you like. 0421 878 907. Need this shit gone. James

whats your reasoning for this? i beg to differ. in fact if u ignore the pistons for the most part, 25 and 30 internals also a farely strong. u may drop a bearing at 300kw but thats due to the fact they are old and f**ked anyway. and to be honest i havnt seen too many problems with the 25 pistons its usually the australian 30et pistons. (stock vl turb pistons had a tendancy to 'melt' lol) not having a dig just curious. you may have seen some fail and i just havnt come across it yet.

Dont stress. One of my skylines came from a dealer. Was immaculate. But was the only car in the yard without warranty. Reason being... nearly exactly what you were told. But I never had a problem with that car. Still own it.... but now its rb30det with new box and diff and no luxuries lol so who needs waranty

Yes it reads... 'please refrain from inserting carrots into closing sunroof cavity. Failure to follow this warning may result in serious injury or mashed potato for dinner instead'.

I took two pistons out of my xr8 to get v6 power and shed weight. Lets help this bloke put a ca18de into his gtr. I think hes on to something.

That baked carrot dish looks like alcohol induced regurgitation

Carrot is just a metaphore. Really he put something else in the electric window.

Except crank would have to be sent to mainland again to be balanced again lol.

Yer I think ill be right. I asked a few places about lightening my standard flywheel and I got told not to bother. Use it as it was

Until my sister crashed it lol

Put a pair of space savers on ur car and try to negotiate round a bouts in the rain. I can say this because I'm not on the same roads as u. Maybe u should warn the locals though. My first car was an 89 ke laser. I loved it. Couldnt kill it. I dont know how it survived untouched

Hang on Im about to pay for and pick up my twincam rb30. Full forged engine. Modified head. Hope to make 400 kw also but my engine builder told me from the start my standard flywheel would be fine??? Is this not the case? Crank has already been balanced with my standard flywheel and my balancer. ?

haha yes evo 3.5. oh hang on my standard 33 had mitsi bov.... nissan and mitsi must of re-partnered for a super rare run of 33's also. and i think JECS Corporation was in on it to. i found their stickers everywhere on the electrics. ive seen hitachi parts on 33's. mine had some in it. pretty sure ecu in 33 is hitachi. must be from a tractor or a battery drill

hmmm dont think i can help with a 30. i got a complete 25 bottom end sitting in my garage thats all. lol yer im dying my my 3 litre to be running. engine done. just gotta save for bolt ons really.

i see i see. i thought the ignitor was built into ecu on s2 also. as do many people. i will have a look at the coils. yet another myth busted.
