i thought u get a massive fine for having an exhaust without a cat?

but i would like a bloody curdling exhaust :ninja:

if you dont have a cat dont you get a yukky petrol smell when you are driving, i think i read sumthin along those on these forums sumwere lol

you only get a fine in all the other states. here you get sent over the pits and they will tell you to fit a cat. if i get stickered i will just refit it. i build my cat replacement pipes to be a straight replacement for the cat so changing them over is a 5 minute job. i dont get any strange smells either although you may get a little discolouration of your rear bar around the muffler.

i have a 3 " straight through cannon style muffler , no cat and 3 " straight through front pipe and catback . havnt found another which sounds quite like mine . can replicate the cat back if you like the sound for $800 fitted inc muffler

well ive got the twin 3 inch front pipes that merge into a 4 inch collector that goes into my MetalCat, then 3 inch all the way to a quiet kakimoto, so all id need replacing is the muffler. What mufflers (cannons) do you use??

to be honest i cannot remember which brand it was (nothing flash to be honest ) but i do remember where i got it so i can source more plus they only cost a couple of hundred bucks.

as soon as my car is running well ( my guru is hopefully fixed it already) again i will be making myself known at cruises . so i guess you can hear it in the flesh.

sounds good, let me know when youre up and running

what diametre pipe is it? does it require silicon hose? a rough quote would be about $120 fitted and polished but it does depend on the diametre.

kermit

what sort of cost would it be for an intake pipe for a hyundai excel ( :D )

bout 700mm long with one 45 degree bend

Krammmitttttt once my engine is fitted and gets retuned, I'll need you to knock me up a new straight pipe with muffler.

I'll see you before then anyway more than likely!

Why is GTR for sale :( Surely Vin won't be happy, as neither will u :) Going to miss that EVIL machine

hey mate. sorry but i wont copy stock parts this way. the only way i would do it is to have the car and build to suit . one tiny difference means that it wont fit and then my reputation is gone.

kermit

i need dumps and front for a r33 gtr . no fitting . could supply the stock ones if you need them to make up new ones while the turbos are off . 3in stainless

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
