thanks for the sticky :(

For your info guys... When I bought my Cobe extractors (In NZ for my GTS25) I was told Cobe do not make different extractors for the RB20DE. The one set of extractors is used for both types of engine... I guess it's a happy medium.

What do you think of the extractors? Good increase in performance? any decrease?

I was pretty sure cookm posted some info on the different size pipe used for RB20 compared to RB25 extractors in the N/A thread but i might be mistaken. i'll confirm with Autopia.

here's that info:

1986-98 Nissan Skyline RB20 2000cc SOHC. 1 1/2" Primary 1 5/8" Secondary D6 234.82

1989-98 Nissan Skyline R32, R33 - RB20, RB25 DOHC. 1 1/2" Primary 1 3/4" Secondary 2" Outlet D12 279.45

so Ryno you were right: they make one set of extractors for the RB20DE and RB25DE, but they do make specific ones for the RB20E (sohc). if anyone has an RB20E (i think these were only in R33's as the shitty base model) you'd better let me know or you'll get the wrong ones!

I already had a 2 1/2 inch exhaust system before I got the extractors fitted, so I didn't notice a major leap in peak power. The big thing you'll notice is the improvement in torque, they make the engine far more flexible. I'm stoked with them, as I wasn't expecting much of an improvement.

When you get them they're painted bright orange, unfortunately after you run it the first time the orange paint flakes off. It's a shame, as I thought the orange pipes looked good sticking out the side of the engine.

sweet yeah i already have 2.5" exhaust as well, but any torque gains i'll be happy with. so i guess your extractors have gone a bit rusty now? i might look into getting them hpc coated or something to stop rust and to keep the heat in...

i wasnt expecting too much from extractors, maybe some more top end and a better sounding exhuast note.

if the torque increase to quite noticable, then that makes it even better!!! and considering the price as well, its a steal !

though i dont like orange=, chrome or black or me but its someting i can live with

I'm in. Ready when you are.

Does anyone have any idea how long they take to fit? Is it something that's pretty straight forward?

Id say its pretty much unbolt the old one, and bolt on the new one.

Can i please get sum info if the extractors come with a new gasket and if the existing system has an O2 sensor on it ? i havent had a look at my extractors under the heat shield yet, i might have to get mine modified cos i have a new flanged CAT and maybe its not a direct fit but never the less i am all for it.

Cheers

:D

    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.  
    • Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.
    • There is a warning that "this thread is super old" but they ignore that anyway...
    • With 10% Ethanol, we're talking 2-3% fuel consumption difference. The emissions reductions and octane boost in my opinion far outweigh this almost non existent loss.    My tanks sitting at 80%. Luckily that should go down fast as I'm on vacation again for the next two weeks.
