Ive got a 3inch 'hiflow' cat converter on my Stagea at the moment (same as for r33).... very new, like a few months old only. Id love to get an even bigger one, like 4inches or more........................ but checked the prices and the larger ones arnt that cheap - mine cost $190, off BATMBL here on the forums.

probably wasn't very clear in my first post. i'm basically look at making straight through cats for mine and my mates cars and i'd also like some 3" flanges off them! So basically i'm just after ones that are shagged an no one wants any more, none of these expensive ones!

:) Ive got my old 'compliance' cat you can pretty much have..... but im sure thats a 2 or 2.5inch unit, sorry.

Use that and cut the flanges off, and get a 3inch pipe from a exhaust shop pretty cheap......

Ash,

You can pick up the 3" flanges for next to nothing from AAA Exhaust.

I bought a 1m piece of 3" pipe, 2 flanges and 2 gaskets for $30.

Nice bloke at AAA, will definitely have future exhaust mods done there.

Which will be fairly soon as I am going to quieten the car up a little by dropping the largest straight through muffler I can fit under the car just after the cat.

you don't need to quieten your car up any more, its already a heap quieter than mine. I ended up gutting my cat and did notice a bit of improvement (also made it even louder) but haven't put a pipe through it as it tapers in slightly and you can't get a bit of 3" through it! Not sure if its just mine or all cats are like this!

blow flames and gain power - no cat!! :)

not necessarily. i use(d) race cats and i cant see any flames or have been pointed out by others that flames shoot out my exhaust or have i felt any power gains. just left a yellowish stain on my rear bumper.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
