hi guys

need to get my exhaust tested to see how loud it is. its a 3in system with a hotdog muffler hiflo cat 3inch split dump and a jazma oval rear muffler. doesnt sound that loud but is probably over 90db. where should i go to get it tested. vic roads have there approved testers, but none of them are near me. closest is lilydale or dandenong. anyone had theres tested around the s.e suberbs? im sure theres more testers than just the approved vic roads ones.

didnt actually get canary for exhaust. but i have to get my car engineered due to the whole i cut out for my hybrid intercooler kit. the engineer must now do the whole car not just the engine bay. just want to get it tested before the engineer does it. want to have it all micky mouse so i only have to take it to him once. he will perform the test himself i just want to make sure its gonna pass

I just went to get a noise test for my GTR. It has a stock exhaust on it now and still failed at 92db !!!

Only mod on it is the pods, they said to put the standard one on, however i dont know if that will make a difference.

Not happy Jan !!

ive always used the boys at daalder in box hill.. sure the place looks a bit dodgy but they guys there are good blokes

Daalder exhaust is the place to go, a few friends of mine have had their cars tested there. Good helpful guys with a sense of humor too >_<

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
