Hi there

Im looking and buying a 3" dump/front pipe and need your guys comments on it, have any of you seen or used the 3" mildsteel dump/front pipe on your r33 (or r32) from www.flyn.com.au, it looks very similar to the CES dump/front pipe sold on www.uniqueautosports.com, is it good quality??

I really need some answers as i live in new zealand and am buying if from a seller on trademe.co.nz,but he is in aussie, so i dont want to buy it then recieve something that is a piece of crap!!

Any help will be much appreciated

Cheers

Jason

looks the same as the x-force dump/front pipe. depending on the cost of shipping (and currency conversion) it could bo worth finding someone in NZ that does the x-force stuff and getting a price. and if you were getting an exhaust shop to fit it, they usually charge less to fit something you bought off them.

I will be installing it myself;), im not sure if anyone in N.Z sells xforce but i might have a look around and see what i can find.

So overall its a pretty decent dump/front pipe for the price??

spend double the money and get one from www.bosimporting or from user BATMBL on these forums. they cost about $400 aud,

but they are stainless split dumps and people report 15rwkw gains over bell mouth dumps. I just bought one and haven't fitted it yet but the quality is great.

I would love to go for one of the dump pipes from UAS or the bosimporting.com.au/BATMBLE but they are going to cost me alot of money as i will have to import one from aussie to N.Z

Any comments will appreciated

Cheers

batmbl one's are OK, the welds aren't fantastic, and it might not line up properly to the cat (which I found on the R34). Also the little flange bit near the wastegate section could do with a little angle grinding. But for the price, can't complain.

    • Yeah, sort of blurring two different things together, aren't we? I just meant O2 feedback closed loop. I used to have a 0-1V LCD meter on my dash, wired directly to the O2 sensor signal. So you could easily see what it was doing. Normal running it would flick back and forth nicely. Slow down to an idle and it would keep flicking, as the ECU tried to servo to maintain stoich, but it would slow down as each swing happened until it would stay at one end of the scale. As I said above, the sensor heater is not enough to keep it hot enough when there is also little heat in the exhaust flow. Give it a blip and it would start swinging again, then peter out again. Meanwhile, idle speed control would run just fine, because unrelated.
    • It's not even O2 feedback, it's just simply when the ECU sees the closed TPS signal for whatever reason the idle will start steadily dropping until the engine dies. With the TPS adjusted to not trigger closed TPS it will idle at some ridiculously high RPM and something like 6 degrees of timing. In the absence of getting eyes on it personally and a lot of quality time doing diagnostics I couldn't tell you what the real problem was but it was interesting nonetheless
    • Oof. One of my mates has an R34 GT-R that he initially was a "I want to go twins for response and convenience" on his stock 2.6 with Kelford 272 cams, but his friends are pests and were always in his ear about their place being in the bin.   Eventually one of the 2860-5s decided to add it's own input and force his hand, so he conceded and went for a Pulsar 6262G ("G35 900") with T4 0.85 hotside.    Here's an overlay of the results, same cams, same stock bottom end, same boost, same fuel, just from a pretty tidy 2860-5 install to a Pulsar turbo on a 6boost maniifold on BP98.   Worth mentioning here, it may seem like a dead horse thing but the dyno plot doesn't tell the story of how much better it is to drive - transient response has completely changed the car, he used to have flat foot shifting to stop it having to wind up again on gear changes even at >7000rpm... now it builds boost faster than that even short shifting.   It's 100% transformed the car before you even consider how much better it holds on: Pulsar and Garrett aren't the same, but from our experience if you're just looking for a better drive and the ability to make the same or more power I think the divided G30 770 would probably be the smallest I'd go to.
    • Great work Duncan, any events local you will give it a test once all done?
