Thanks Eugene, 'Eug' for going to the trouble of organising the group buy and getting a great deal for the rest of us N/A'ers. Everyone came together really quickly and there seemed to be no major hassles! Well done to everyone else who took part too. So.. In time let's see some pics, videos etc of your install's guys! :happy:

Hey mate,

Yeah totally agree, well done Eug!!!

This group buy was an absolute ripper :),

I'm already itching for mine lol,

may be a while till i put em on though :sorcerer: $$$$$

btw, i noticed your getting the 2.25" outlet (same as me), what are your plans for the rest of the zorst?

Regards,

The rest of my exhaust is 2.25 (made by hi-tech) I might look into a new cat I suppose :)

Looking forward to the change in song from the extractors.. I was running a torch along that part where the extractors will replace and the seal is broken etc.. so yea.. should sound tough =D

lol, ahh well your laughing then,

Cheers

Edit: Just looked up Hi-tech, just a bit out of my way lol

What was Hi-Tech's service like? Is there one in the Melbourne Area?

Cheers

They were great, at the time I was pretty clueless about the whole exhaust situation, but they explained it pretty clearly. And they knew their stuff too looking back on it now. Unfortunately I don't think they have a melbourne location too (from looking at their contact info) http://www.hitechmufflers.com.au/contact.html

edit: sneaky sneaky sean'0 lol why did you edit your question out?

lol, "Very sneaky sir"

I was waiting for the "ahhh dirr go to the WWW" when i read my Q again :),

What have you got in your current system? (not really interested in brands or whateva, just what components) so i don't sound like a dummy later lol

cheers

I have 4 inch tip.. oval shapeish muffler that leads onto the 2.25 piping.. then a resonator.. then the cat.. That's the best I can explain it?

All the components up to the cat were created by hi-tech..

Yep,

Thats exactly what i wanted to know, i didn't really want to get a cannon, i was thinking one of those "oval" mufflers like you descibe. I was also looking into someithing with twin tip, hmmm so many decisions...

Cheers :P

no worries jeremy...

since most of us are dealing with a similiar situation, i'll put in my 2 cents. choose your exhaust system carefully, especially on NA cars they will tend to be very very drony. NA_R33 had a set of these extractors and a titanium 2.5" system with a cannon - the headaches you used to get sitting near, around, in the thing was enough to drive you nuts!

stick with something simple and pay attention to resonators.

let us all know how you go with your new systems

  • 2 weeks later...

Just on what Eug said, resonators are pivotal, u have to go to an exhaust shop with alot of experience with twin cam engines otherwise ur car is going to be the worst sounding thing ever. Twin Cams are renouned for giving a metallic reverberance sounds that is considerably hard to combat for and old bloke at an exhaust who only does systems for old clunker V8's and or a young 17 yo at the time who decided the best way to fix was to make it so loud you couldnt hear it :ninja:

  • 3 months later...

Gday Gents its been a while eh :), well I'm finally getting the whole exhaust done TODAY!!

So far I've got the extractors, 2.25" custom mandrel bent piping, resonator, cat and an oval Magnaflow muffler.....so it should sound the shizzle :(

I'm gonna pick the car up in about 2 hours or so....... i may be a while, but i will be posting lots of pics up for everyone to have a gander

Once again,

Eug your a champ!!

Nice nice. I might throw up a sound file or vid soon if i get the time.

Edit: I also need to get rid of this sig.. It was meant to be a joke, but no one has said anything yet, starting to think people are like wtf is that guy on..

Sounds good buddy, I'm probably gonna get a few sound clips and possibly some "in-car" driving shenanigans :(, i'll see if i can duct tape my camera to my passenger seat lol

Actually i wasn't going to say anything.....but not that you mention it :(, i was thinking...."ahhhh ok, friends forever......what the hell" lol

Anyways, yeah i'm pretty friggen excited, i'm about to boot down to the shop in the nxt 30 mins so wish me luck eh

ohh when i get the car home i'm gonna clean out the AFM and re-set the ECU just for good measure, then its off to ge the car clean for some pics tonight in my secret industrial zone :)

But for shizz, i'll put all of my vids and pics in this thread

Talk to you l8ter brother,

Regards,

Sean'O

no worries Sean, keep us updated... glad i could help

Nick, what catback do you have? that actually sounds pretty good (pre-extractors), how does it sound higher in the rev range?

i might have to get some audio files of mine... i'm not quite happy with the catback (stock 33GTR for the moment) it's a cheaper temporary alternative.

below 4K mine is pretty sweet, when i get up it and want to hit the tracks or a skidpan it just has a loud metallic scream which isnt quite what i'm after.

Got a hi-tech 2.25 catback. Sounds pretty nice at high revs, I'll go warm it up tonight and take another vid of it with extractors revving to 6-7k or what ever :)

i wanted to get in on this group buy but dad was bit crankey at the time and would of shot me for it. bought a pair from jus jap for 150bux few weeks ago. i got a vid of it running extractors cat and a straight pipe. sounds hidious but loud.

what headers did you get from just jap? i asked them ages ago and they had nothing...

i agree with the hideous, it's got a very umm... "raspy" note to it...

would be keen to hear the hi-tech nick... i've been speaking to someone else, who has a trust catback... would like to hear that too...

    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
