I now have a metal intake pipe, the induction noise is awesome

Haha i couldnt wait until tomoro, ended up using a piece of a different inlet manifold i had and plumbed it into the intake just before the throttle body, and then attached the ICV hose to it and connected it up. It sounds so good, the induction roar is very nice (Thanks again zebra for the help, would of been stuffed with a car that wouldnt idle other wise )

Thanks to Zebra this may of been resolved, apparently the pipe running from the manifold back to the inlet pipe needs to be plumbed into the intake pipe itself..

Thanks heaps man ill get onto that tomoro , hopefully she'll run a bit better then

Thanks Zebra, so just anywhere after the AFM, and before the throttle body?

Hey guys probley gona get flamed like hell but, ive taken off the standard cross over pipe off my NA skyline and replaced it with straight steel piping without a resonator box. Atm, from the throttle body there is a 45 degree 3inch silicon joiner, then about 30cm of metal pipe then a 3inch joiner, the AFM and a pod filter. As soon as i start the car it stalls instantly, if i rev it slightly it will run but very poorly and as soon as i take my foot off the accelerator the car stalls. There are two hoses that are not connected to anything atm, on runs to the intake manifold and the other to the top of the cam covers, these at present are not joined to anything. how can this problem be fixed? (Worst case senario, ill just put the standard cross over pipe back on. But would like to get this to work as have heard the induction noise using metal pipe sounds ok ) Thanks Nikk

whats the go with the silencer pipes, where r these located?

my gts has got an lsd, weather or not its factory or not im unsure :s

hmmm 20hp pump ey... may have to get one of these (cough cough )

also as mattie said cannons are a joke, use a decent oval muffler instead. It will stop it both looking and soounding "cheap"...

Hey man, as stated by all the other guys just take the car to your local exhust shop and get them to have a look at it and they'll go from there. My system is simply a cat, straight through resonator and the a custom rear stainless muffler with twin 2 1/2 inch outlets simply because i wanted twin pipes. m My system is loud but has very minimal drone and have been pulled over many times with no hassles.

*interested *shift (stupid phone lol)

hey iseekool, ive got an auto r33 coupe and im inyerested in installing a shit kit, i live in south east queensland and was wondering. a. how much the kit + having it installed will be, and b. where in se qld would be able to supply and fit this?

Just a few quick snaps before the SCC '11

The car has a gloss black vinyl wrap on the Bonnet, A pillars, Roof and C Pillars back, Carbon fiber look alike wrapped B pillars, as well as a black Series 2 boot and wing (it just dosent show up very well in photos), The pod filter is mounted to the chassis using a bracket and has a CAI directly beneath it as shown in the pics. Also has the compulsary ridiculasly loud aftermarket exhaust, a set of TEIN HA coilovers and a full set of blue nolathane bushes I know its not the quickest car in a straight line, but its mine and untill im off my P's this will satisfy my love of shiny things lol

Haha, Rule no. 1 of Posting on SAU, dont bother arguing with Mark lol

Thats exactly it man, My auto NA 33 (dont flame, I know its not a rocket already lol) does about 60 in first, if i were to launch in second (which tops out at around 105 - 110) it would be a very slow embarrasing trip to 100kmph and would get beaten by bikes let alone an AU falcon .

Wow, what a thread dig lol

where are you located man?

Yer i was using the "hot shine" product but megiurs have discontinued it in favor of the "endurance" tire gel, IMO the hot shine stuff was better. But yer man let me know how you get on with the waxit stuff if it works awesome I might look into it

As Jonno said, the Aussie export stuff lasts SFA time. What ive found to work best is, put down a layer or two of the meguires endurance tyre gel (which in itself works awesome + it smells like sexy grape lol) let it dry off for 5 to 10 minutes. Then after its dryish spray it with the aussie export spray on shine, stuff works briliantly and cause the endurance gel stays on the tire even when the export stuff wears off (albeit after about 1 or 2 days) your still left with the relatively shinny Meguires layer. This is what i use on my car anyway (i just cant bring myself to spray a clear coat onto my tires lol)

Also fired up there Super sedan drag car, over 700 horses NA windsor V8 its evil, ran a best of 9.7. When we were talking i was like "pfft ill run ya, my skyline would kill it" lmao (hint at the highly sarcastic tone of voice ) was a good day.

haha yer, i couldnt resist , I'd love to go for a run at some point in one of the GTR's ive never even been in one before id like to do a comparison. I went for a run in my mates Vortech Supercharged GT-P this afternoon Ferk me what a beast, Ran 12.4 at willowbank on street tires and low boost (between 6 & 7 pound). Its not the fastest car ive been in but its deffinetly the fastest daily drive street car ive been in, i couldnt get over how quite and calm it was untill you opened it up, amazing lol.

hey man, thats probley not to bad 570 sounds alright. haha yer i can imagine the quad cams would be more. what lift would you get them reground to though? how big can you go before you need to start changing stuff / the cam profile moves the torque curve so much it makes it usless for street use?
