Holy pain in the ass batman

I cant even get my old one off so I cant say if it fits or not yet

can only get five of the 6 nuts off

is there a trick to getting a spanner to the nut in the middle closest to the inner guard ??

Mines got an aftermarket dump pipe on at the moment and its proving to be very difficult to remove

Just be careful, we snaped off the top one in the turbo exhaust manifold, now we have the wonderful task of removing it :) Have you tried spraying WD40 or similar and letting it sit for an hour or so, this may help a little. ;)

The quality of these split dump pipes and metal high flow catco cats are excellent, I can highly recommend them if any one is considering a purchase!!! :O

SS8_Gohan - Maybe I am just being a bit fussy, it does fit but just sits too close to the body at the cat end for my liking, but this problem is easily fixed and I am not complaining, but that could also be because I have an R34 Series 2 sedan, I dont know if they would be different to coupe's or Series 1's??

Ay every one i just perchased a catco 3" metal cat and was just wondering has anybody had trouble with the 5" center.. like dose it scrape on everything etc.. cauz currently my dump pipe is the one that scrapes on speedhumps..

hmm... i've finally paid for my split pipe, not too keen on this "not fitting quite right" business :laugh:

If you are referring to my experience, it fitted perfect, i just had to get a slightly shorter bolt for one of the holes (or cut a little off the end of the old one).

I also found that with the new dump and metal cat, my ground clearance was better than with my stock cat.

I got it fitting by a workshop though, cost $80 or so. Well worth it.

Finally got it on

wasnt so bad after all

had to go buy a stubby spanner set to get to the bloody nuts

but it fitted straight up

and after driving it i wouyld say it does spool up alot faster now and power feels more linear (smoother)

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
