I was just there and booked my car in for a new exhaust. The middle muffler is to low and the whole exhaust is to loud, so he is removing the muffler and making me up a bolt on tip so once im done i can bolt mine back on. So yeah thanks but it will be sorted.

not true, i have a muffler i got made up from the guys at city exhaust that passed over the pits quite well. i'd loan it to you but it either A) probably wouldn't fit as most exhausts are different and B) i don't own the car or the muffler anymore, but could get it in a week or so.

they charged me $160 for a muffler that just bolts on where your existing muffler is, 2 bolts to remove and replace quiet muffler. go and have a talk to them, they're good at fixing that sort of stuff.

i meant the little ones you stick in the end of the cannon that look like a funnel. not a whole muffler.

Ive got a custom tip for any one with a 3.5" exhaust, will get you over pits.

Hey can anyone confirm one of those licencers can get you past rta/dickson rego?

I just got defected today, got 93.6db at 3,200 RPM and didn't think to ask.

If not hope someone can lend me one of their stock R32 GTR exhaust for a week or so.

Did they seriously defect you for 93.6db!!!!!!!!!!!

I got done in my old car for too loud and it was 107db.

the bloke said if it was 100 or less he would have let me off

but it was way higher.

he also said that the limit is 95db

the limit in ACT for a Skyline (its based on cyl's and weight iirc) is 92db.

Yer, I had to take it over the pits at dickson. but they showed me this spread sheet that they were going off.

if it was a post 1983 car, 6 cyl. maximum was 90db at 3200rpm. I think most 83 cars you can have it louder.

So no one's got an exhuast I can borrow for a couple of days or so? might have to resort to welding a silencer on the the exhuast or going to the wreckers.

honestly man, when you get the cash, get a garage to build you a turbo back exhaust that is legal and performance orientated - saves a ton of time.

The exhaust on mine is *magic* - noticably different note to most skylines i've heard, quieter that any i've heard at idle, and louder than my mates at full noise.

sounds beautiful imho.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
