- Hey everyone.

I just got my car back from Kermit today.

He fitted/modded an exhaust I purchased from ebay to fit my R32 GTR - with a 3 inch hi-flo cat I purchased locally. He custom fitted some flanges to fit the job etc.

I must say, the job was well done, although it took a bit of extra work (by fault of the car) - the fit/finish was a top job all done in a respected time.

Kermit : it sounds 10 times better now, I can actually hear the turbo spool up now - and no - unwanted backfire :O It pulls better etc than before!

I thoroughly recommend the work of Kermit 100% - feel free to PM me for more information.

oh yeah - and Kermit's GTR - is tidy as! - and goes hard :O

  • 2 weeks later...

All you would have to do is put it back in , they would just give you a yellow sticker and you would put it back before you go over. i wouldnt reccommend it but then again i wouldnt recommend smoking either....

kermit

kermit u wouldnt recomend a cat replacement for astreetu used car correct ? just found out the fines involved if caught? just wanted to make my car sound meaner realy quiet atm

oh u can put it back in easy ? i thought it was a welded piece, well once i get my turbo and new engine mods in i wont be driving it much at all most likeyl weekends only, il be getting another car within the next month or so, i might consider it if its eay to take off and on

would cops often check under the car for a cat ? or mainly the carbon build up on the rear ?

i dont have a cat and i get no carbon build up on my rear bumper and the cars white! but i also do wash my car often soo maby thats why.. soo if you take care of your car you'll be right..

as for cops getting under your car well i HIGHLY doubt it.. its only the pits guys that will spot it

i have a carbon build up but im too lazy to polish it off ( im too hard core ). cops have never looked under my car even when i get pulled for being noisy. takes couple of hours to make , depends on rusty nuts and bolts etc and if cat sensor is seized as i refuse to cut it off ( cut it out instead then it is at least still there just not used).

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
