On thursday i picked up my skyline, I had the weekend to drive around and get used to it. the twin plate clutch is a bitch but im slowly gettin used to it, and the power too. :)

But when i first looked at the car i noticed there was no cat. however i couldnt remember what the exhaust looked like on the day,but the guy said hel put a cat on for me.So when i picked it up i had a look underneath, and i noticed it has the 3" turbo back but there is no sign of a flanged cat.Now from the turbo down until about underneath the back seat there is nothing then it looks like there are 2 resonators one about 6 inch then just after is another one about a foot long then it goes back to the muffler and out.

SO can it be that the 6 inch one is a high flow cat. because there isnt a flanged one in there? if anyone has pics of what a high flow cat lookes like please post em up.

il get some pics tomorow on the situation. i really dont want to get hammered by EPA for no cat.

cheers

Neil

If it's welded on and not flanged bolted in then theres a good chance they're both resonators. How big is it at a guesstimate in diameter? You said 3 inch piping, so if it's only around 4 inch and is circular, like the foot long one then probably resonators. most of the high flowed cats i've seen have been pretty angular and at least 4 inches and 6 inches across. Get a pic of it if u can but i'd say they both just resonators

thats a nice car, i had one as well. In my opinion the Series II is better then the original. Series one reminds me of a magna when seeing at at the front, where as this one has a sharp look to it. I had heaps of mods on it as well, apexi power fc,intercooler,injectors, sway bars,exast etc etc etc i had it all apart from the turbo,

still i made 203.13kw at the wheels on 15 so it wasnt too bad... trust me man keep the car they are really nice, and congrats once again

      Big Brake Kit for ECR33

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      What are you doing with the car? Drags, sprints, racing? A decent upgrade of dba 4000 rotors, good quality pads (endless, project mu, intima are all I have used), quality fluid and braided lines. All have held up to multiple big track days and street duties. No need for big fancy kits as some also require significant energy to come upto operating temp. Look at 350z caliper and rotor upgrade too.  @Dose Pipe Sutututu comment on them and did a good write up.

      I've driven that one and it's a great deal and drives nice. The owner definitely treats it right on track. You would have gotten it for what you paid for this one too.   Keen to see what you do to this one.

      Front Tyres on R34 GTR, fitment, etc, *question*

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I have a question with regards to R34 GTR guards. All the info here is quite old. Useful, but old. At what point does the bumper itself become a clearance issue with wide wheels on a R34 GTR, specifically the part I've drawn in red here: All of the info that people post about implies that 285 is as far as you'd go before scrubbing becomes an issue, but they speak of hitting the inner plastic liners, not the bumper itself. Just how wide could you go if you took the liners out? Has anyone done it? I have been messing with my own car and spacers and heavily cursed my lack of planning, but I might not feel so bad if there's actually no gains to be had by going a GTR guard and front bar combination for $5k+ of money I do not have after spending about that much already on my solution which now has problems. (Woo) At least I now know why GTR guards and bumpers flare out like this over their GTT lesser cousins. I feel that in 2024, someone has gone further and attempted to run 315's or somesuch on the front of a R34 GTR. If you have, please post. If you're tried and failed for some other reason definitely post so I feel better about my mistakes

      URAS Type R R34 GT GTT Widebody Front Guards

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Genuine URAS Type R front guards in FRP. These will fit a GTT. They will only fit a GTT. If you have a GT or GTT and want wider fenders with a Z tune look up top, this is what you want. You use this with a regular GTT fitment bar. Not a GTR bar. They fit GTT guard liners and plastics, not GTR items. So if you're reading this thinking "Ah! I have a GTT or GT and want wider front guards that bolt directly on, but do not want the hassle of changing my bonnet and bumper and plastics and undertrays or anything else, this is what you want. The fitment is annoyingly perfect. I really would rather someone pick these up in person and not ship them. SE Melb.
