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

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
