Cheers James

possibly down for a set. will confirm v. shortly.

what price am I looking at for a high-flow 2.5" cat? rough price on install?

you can pick up at high flow cat for approximately $100, install i wouldn't know not a hard a hard job tho.

Needs to be fabricated to....

yes, they keep a few in stock but for large orders they need to fabricate.

this is actually an old thread from last year, we've just used this one instead of making a new one. as a lot of the older information is still quite relevant.

with the addition of 4 door love we have 7 people, another 3 more would be good and we can go ahead.

Got my extractors at work today ... nice and orange lol

Just a quick heads up to people ...

I asked for a 2.5" oulet and they sent me a set of extractors with a 2" outlet ...

dunno why or what I can do about it ? I thought they only came in 2.25 or 2.5 inch not 2 inch ... I measured up with vernier calipers and it came out to exactly 2 inch ...

currently have a 2.5" exhaust system ... might have to get the exhaust shop to cut off the rear collector and weld on a 2.5" collector ...

will have to see what the exhaust shop say if they can cut the collector off and make up a 2.5" outlet or not

Ahh wells ... shit happens I guess ..

I am quite impatient at times and hate waiting for stuff ... when I want something I must have it like yesterday ...

Gonna fit the extractors myself and get the exhaust shop to then cut the collector off and make up a 2.5" collector back to the standard Cat converter then to my 2.5" exhaust ...

Hopefully I notice an improvement in low to mid range performance from what others have said it is noticeable so I will wait and see ...

My mate at the exhaust shop will more than likely want to put a flex joint in where the collector normally is to help with flex of the engine so that the exhaust doesn't crack so I will see what he recommends as he has done a couple performance exhausts for me in the past and has always put a flex joint in this position...

... Hope your group buy goes well :D

P.S - The extractors are nice and Orange :P

Quick heads up for people ...

These extractors are not just a quick bolt on job ... where they weld the pipes onto the header plate the welds are too large to put the spacers on so that you can bolt them on properly ... you will either have to die grind the welds down so you can fit the shims or modify the spacers somehow ... I gave my spacers a grind but it isn't good enuf to clear the welds so I will have to pull the extractors off and die grind some of there welds away so that I can tension them up properly ...

But I did notice a bloody huge difference in engine responsiveness and more power through the mid to high end range ... gets up to speed alot smoother and pickup is much better ...

You guys will notice the difference in power that's for sure ...

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
