  1. Nope. It's emissions requirement from a legal point of view, given if you run a cat to start you are trying to follow the law
  2. You'll find its not just xforce. When you are running 300rwkw, drifting... with the heat being sent down its little surprise they melt as its not what they are designed for.
  3. If it says it is too large, then it's clearly too large Either reduce the size of the pictures, or they will be unable to be posted. We have size restrictions for a reason, so there is no way around them. Thanks.
  4. hehe well ye there is that. 350 is relatively useless in RWD though. More is less in a RWD scenario for a street car. The sweet spot i found with my GTS-R was around 280rwkw. Had 370rwkw @ one point and that was just ridiculous. Each car and set-up is different of course, takes a few runs in the hills to see what works and what doesn't
  5. If you put on a GT3071 i tell you right now that you'll get MUCH more than 300rpm Could be as much as 800-1000rpm based upon your results thus far. And you'll make the same top end.
  6. Oh so sorry Locked.
  7. Could be slipping clutch, overboost causing R&R, underboosting even then there are other issues like a slightly leaking cooler pipe etc. Dyno = rule out a number of things very easily and cheaply.
  8. id get it checked, always safe to have things looked at.
  9. Nice work getting the finance committee to approve the extra spending on turbos I like the crinkle on the strut brace, that actually quite different indeed! Good to see it back and better than before, more power FTW
  10. Until you put it on a dyno to confirm this... Hard to tell. Could be any number of things - dyno run should show it up pretty quickly.
  11. PM me the last digits That IP range is on the ban set due to mass spammers.
  12. You do realize their orders/directive comes from the Top Brass? It’s not giving them a bad name at all, it’s doing exactly what the majority of the community are lobbying for. Enough of the “cop/police threads” that just turn into a story for “this is your life”. If you want to do something… Then gather together similar minded people in your local electorate. Then go lobby your local parliamentary representative.
  13. If you guys are going to organise an official club – then realistically you must have CAMS affiliation, which is very cheap and you get no limit of permits per year and instant insurance. So its very worthwhile. Reason? The Public Liability Insurance for any events that comes with CAMS affiliation. What do I mean by events? Be that a social movie night, group ‘car fix it’ nights or cruise. As the way things are going in Australia, if you organise something and heaven forbid – something bad happens. You as the organiser will be potentially in a world of strife. Issue with this? You need to form a Club Committee, register a non profit organisation/bank accounts, have a Club Constitution, annual reports to the ATO etc etc. It’s quite a bit of work and unless you get 50 people, IMO it’s realistically not a viable option simply due to workload. Also you must look longer term. In 5 years is there still going to be the same “drive” as there was in the first 12 months? Will people still own skylines in 3-4 years? If you are questioning the issues then you are far better off joining a club that is already CAMS affiliated and strengthening their numbers as a single larger group is FAR more effective than smaller splinter groups. More resources, better funding and so on. Larger states are obviously luckier than you blokes as we are mostly dense coverage within 80km of each other. Vic alone for example has had 812 members over the past 6 years. We currently have 280 active. So there is a high turnover rate due to the skyline ownership demographic. 100 members don’t even own a Skyline these days And even with 280 members, we still struggle to fill Committee roles each year come election time. Happy to help you guys with more info/thoughts if you wish as I was a founding member of the SAU-Vic club so I’ve been there/done it and I’ve learnt a thing or two over the years Not saying SAU-TAS is a bad idea, just that there really needs to be a solid Committment as the amount of work that goes into something like this a lot of people grossly underestimate. If i had to estimate how many days p/yr i spent doing SAU-Vic stuff - I'd say at least 60 full days of my time each year for nothing more than the love of the club as it's not a paying job other than seeing others smile
  14. I would straight pipe it. And why break a good CAT anyway? either keep it for later... or get a straight pipe made and bolt it in. sell metal cat. money spare for beer.

  16. Is he on facebook as well?
  17. 4800rpm for 200rwkw, ugh... Much lagging compared to a 3076 But its similar to a GTand that's pretty much where a GTX3076 sits for comparo. unfortunately it seems Garretts GTX3x frame isn't living upto the claims
  18. removed them for now (easier than mass PM) - give it a couple days. just need to sort something out
  19. Just rebuild the rack and modify the P/S pump to remove the rear veins. Once you do that just simply blank of the rack feed/lines that go to the rear as once the P/S pump is modded there is no more oil flowing.
  20. Someone on here made a few up a few years ago now. Can't think for the life of me who it was though, pretty much the same as the picture. Probably minor location/position differences really.
  21. worse than a gt-rs/-10 is how they will perform.
  22. Do we have sections for R32 or R33? gts-t or gtr? Nope And ive looked @ your trader rating, not sure what you mean...
  23. Exactly! You also don't need to wring the balls off the motor with boost coming in nice and early. You just dont rev to 7500rpm - you shift sooner to stay back in the solid/meaty area of torque and surging forward. It's like a win-win as less RPM the better for reliability.
  24. Take it easy dude - coming and posting stuff 'after the fact' is a bit hard without examples and so on. So of course I don't see what goes on, i cant read every thread in each section mate Contact the mod: GoldZilla And have your issues resolved. That's the whole point of having a moderator.
