i spoke to the previous owner of the car not long ago, and he said something along the lines of if you launch it in 1st and grab 2nd, more than likely that your gear box will blow. Think it happened to him twice.  :P you wont hear this happening with a rb25 gearbox now would you?

ive heard that about the SR20 boxes, when you install a heavy clutch the gearbox cops it heaps bad

this goes to show, in my view anyway, that skylines come factory with alot of components that can cope a fair amount of abuse. big brakes and 5 stud wheels doesnt go astray either unlike our silvia/early model 180sx counterparts.

having said that, wanna swap exhaust Sam since you always wanted a resonator in your exhaust why not trade for a weak and see how you like it??  :lol:  :lol: serious offer btw

hmm, too much effort to swap exhausts

pathetic excuse sam, if you love your exhaust just say so. :P i can remove an exhaust (turbo back) in 40 mins tops. i have car ramps (btw if your reading this will you know what i mean) and tools. but here is an exhaust design that i would like on mine....

:lol:

so you just want the bread?

yeah basically :lol:

BUT substitute those ingredients with fries and it would taste just the same. :P

thats just 2 straight through pipes, that would be loud as!!!

shit yeah, but it would sound absolutely awesome. i wonder if it would hinder exhaust flow and performance though since the exhaust flow is distrupted by twin pipes..i wouldnt think so though???

    • How many of you guys run the synchro os giken set and at what power? Do you then also use the billet plate?  How is it launching with it, any dragy times from 0-60? 60ft?
    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
