hey all,

in the market for a turboback exhaust for my 1996 R33 GTST and was wonder what to buy and where to get it...not fussed if its online and will be getting my mechanic to bolt it on so wont need labour.

also...

window tint...where in adelaide is a decent place for this? good quality and effordable rates,

cheers.

If you want a local exhaust shop, go see AAA at Deacon Ave Richmond. Dont know if they sell items only, but for buy+fit their work is great and cost is excellent!

dont get custom made...

get jap bolt-on, www.nengun.com

justjap is expensive, do yourself a favour, shop around first! shop smart!

NB dont take advices from pauly, he's a spammer, not a helper :laughing-smiley-014:

haha andy is known as mr hks loves he brands lol. also if your not too afraid check out the for sale section here on sau i got my cat back many moons ago from there, its was like new and paid stuff all. you can pick up some real bargains.

nothing wrong with custom made, just go to a reputable exhaust place, dont listen to andy hell point u in the most expensive direction...

andy bill at ATS said there is nothing wrong with the dump pipe I have and the reason my turbo went from overboosting.

i noticed myself when i got the car to ATS, that the boost controller had been touched, and wasnt on the way it was before I got in there. and the exhaust place i dealt with didnt want to lodge a claim because they said they woudlnt look at my car at all once they saw my boost controller. but i think theyw ere just protecting their premiums and they were full of shit, in the end it was just 300 odd bucks so i didnt care.

now that i set that straight, andy shutup about the dumps.

I only ever go see Mark at Exhaust Tech, Price is a little on the higher side, BUT his work is second to none! As for the tinting, well as /2on said, St Marys Tint a Car is the go!

I second that pricey but very good

Depends where you live i guess but if you go to the salisbury tint a car and say you work for holdens and they believe you you'll get a better deal, don't think they ask for any work details but if they do at least you tried.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
