lol yeh i need to get heat wrap also, anyone know where to get some cheap heat wrap or even HPC done?

Heat wrap is cheaper..

HPC is quite expensive..

Which is best?.. I guess we will have to wait and see..

Sometime next week.. Ill start a thread in the NA section where people can dicuss their experinces with heat wrap VS HPC.. Stock VS coby.. Power band increased.. instalation.. etc. etc.

should be interesting to see..

Hi guys,

Got my coby hpc coated extractors fitted this week as well as hi flow cat and 2.5" system and xforce cannon, sounds good, quiter then i though, my gf lancer is louder lol, idle and low revs it sounds good, but about 3k it gets a bit raspy and quite, hmm not sure if thats normal, doesnt sounds like the normal skyline sound, only like i said low revs and and idle it does, any thoughs?

Hey so we have all paid eug have you transfered the money to coby just wondering when we will be getting the extractors seems like mic r33 got his fairly quick will ours be quick. just wondering

lol how else could you get these coby extractors besides a group buy?

by contacting partsco directly.

dont these come with a flange ready to bolt to the cat?

do you have to get that done yourself once these arrive?

no flanges. the stock cats (from japan) are the long oval shaped ones, most aftermarkets are short cylindrical ones.

usually a small pipe/flange is required to make the angle fit. a simple 10 minute job.

about 3k it gets a bit raspy and quite, hmm not sure if thats normal, doesnt sounds like the normal skyline sound, only like i said low revs and and idle it does, any thoughs?

no rapsy'ness at low revs for me.

most people seem to get the 3k metalic ring regardless of extractors/exhaust setup.

it seems to be an I6 twin cam thing, as i've heard some M3s with a similar tone

Hey so we have all paid eug have you transfered the money to coby just wondering when we will be getting the extractors seems like mic r33 got his fairly quick will ours be quick. just wondering

yes i have the money from everyone

the order has been sent, however i'm still awaiting confirmation of the order. your monies are waiting for them to provide the bank account details with the finalized totals.

mic_r33 decided not to go with the GB a long time ago, i'm not sure when he placed the order - but for single orders they (partsco) do have the odd 1 or 2 sitting on the shelf. so it's a matter of packaging it and sending it off.

but if you want the cheaper prices then they will want to recieve the money first, then confirm the order with coby and which coby will then manufacture the required amount.

cheers

eug

Yeh shipping was quick, and they had the extractors in stock, longest part was transfering money and getting them sent to HPC to get coated and returned, but shipping was just over a week

funds have been sent... please be patient guys it's completely out of my hands now.

and for those who want to say otherwise I have forked out an extra $60 of my own money in calls and to make up the difference in the sudden rise in exchange rate.

alright - i've opted to use paypal in this case and we managed to clear the funds within 1 day!

i called up partsco this morning and craig has assured me that they have given your orders a priority.

fabrication begins monday and we might get these to you prior to christmas (fingers crossed for xmas shipping).

Hey Eug will they tell you when they are done or have you given them our address's already. if they let you know can yu post when they are done and will they bit shiny metal like in micr33's pic

btw Eug, i saw your post that u said you forked out $60 extra of your own money, i know i wasnt in the group buy but i have to hand it to you your a nice bloke for doing that for everyone, i didnt see anyone post anything about it after you said it unless they PMed you but thumbs up for Eug

no, unfortunately i didnt get any PMs :) but thanks for the kudos!

we didn't expect exchange rates to change so dramatically - i guess i should have factored that in, but i wasn't in it to make a 'profit' as such. what was quoted to me in NZD was converted directly to the nearest AUD.

Ribby, Mic's are shiney because of the HPC - they paint over it in a nice silver paint.

Coby normally do theirs orange, however if we're lucky I've requested everyone get a stealth black.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
