yeh f theres another gb im in too.. spewing i didnt get in with that last one!

what are the full benefits of the extractors performance? sound? fuel efficiency?

Car revs out better, less flat spots. Gives more performance in the low and mid-range. Sound is changed as well.

As there is no forced induction, you can't push more air into the engine. Relieving the restrictions in the intake/exhaust system is the key to making power.

Larger mandrel bend extractors and HP Coating helps to scavenge the exhaust gasses out of the engine quicker.

Combined with a hi-flow cat and mandrel bend catback system means that the exhaust gasses leave the engine quickly which in turn means more air can get back into the engine quickly. Air + Fuel + spark = Power. Fast air flowing through an N/A engine means more power is made. Jap engines typically make power through revs, so being able to get through the rev range quickly means that real-world performance is improved.

Fuel efficiency ultimately depends on how a car is driven. eg: I can use half a tank in a week, or in a night. It depends on how much right foot is applied.

Hey Guys,

Ok i have contacted Eug and i am just rounding up the people who are still interested in geting a set of coby extractors.

The people that have put a post up here withing the last few months i have sent a pm to and just waiting for your reply's.

Anyone else who is also interested can you please contact me asap so i can give Eug an approximate number for a bulk order price.

Cheers James

I may be interested, R33 GTS4 RB25DE. How much would it cost?

i think James is in the process of figuring that one out now. im not sure whether yours will be different, as obviously youl have an extra drive shaft in there somewhere to contend with...

g'day guys... sorry about the delayed response...

i've got a reply back from partsco.

all prices are subject to current exchange rate

we need 10 confirmed orders to get any sort of discount from Coby.

D12 extractors ~AUD$180-190

F124 gasket ~AUD$10-15

HP coating ~AUD$250-260

Shipping (track and trace) to Australia ~AUD$110-120

at this stage, i need 10 PM's with a definite yes to go ahead. once numbers are set i'll require a deposit to lock the buyers in, in previous buys i've not done this - however i've been caught out with people pulling out at the last minute. this deposit is refundable, only on the condition that we do not make the numbers required for the group buy to proceed.

cheers

eug

I am keen for a set for RB20 DE

R32 skyline

D12 extractors ~AUD$180-190

F124 gasket ~AUD$10-15

Shipping (track and trace) to Australia ~AUD$110-120

So im looking around $325 for a set ?

How many numbers do we have confirmed so far ... Im in talks with

Craig Saunders

Director

Partsco.com Ltd

If we can get 10 or more people confirmed as definite we will get a good discount from COBY ...

Craig has informed me that it is more financially viable to go in the group buy than it is to proceed with my 1 off order , so I may get refunded from my current order and proceed with the group buy ...

but it depends on how many confirmed orders we have so far as to weather or not I cancel my current order and proceed with the group buy ...

I currently have payed $306.25AU delivered to my door

If we can get 10 or more confirmed this number will be a lot less ...

well if your in contact with partsco then what am i doing here??

at this stage there isn't enough numbers to go ahead as what i was initially led to believe. truth of the matter is that this has occurred time and time again over the years and quite frankly it ruins it for everyone - as that's how group buys work.

people who have PM'd me so far:

hr32gts

na_beast

ShanO'

Peza

if we do not get another 6 people then it can not possibly go ahead, if Mick does decide to purchase a once off unit then we need another 7. although if numbers do not pull through, he may need to just do that to get his headers.

remember you guys asked me to coordinate this group buy, i don't mind helping out fellow forum members - but those who said they were interested but haven't PM'd me are letting the rest of you down.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
