hey eug, just had a look at the design of those headers, they look mad as nice flow and high quality but i had one issue with them. The O2 sensor looks to me like it only reads from 2 of the outlets which would give it false readings and be a killer on your fuel and mabye rob some power off, it would be best for the sensor to mount in the collector just before the cat or to run muitiple sensors to get a correct reading, im not sure how much this affects the skylines, i just did a mates WRX turbo back exhaust and the O2 sensor mounted in a really crummy spot and his fuel consumption went down to like 280 kms so we had to move it and extend a few wires.

I know skylines arnt this tempremental with the O2 sensors but it might be something to look into if there is a big reported loss in fuel consumption, also in a high preformance application with tunning an after market ecu you wideband sensor probably wouldnt be as affective either

i had a look at that as well. you are correct, that is the best 'bolt out - bolt in' compromise method that they can fabricate.

ideally the gases in each pipe should be equal, it is on my to do list to suss that out. i run an SAFC2 with no dramas in fuel consumption.

yeh, i didnt think that it would have to much of an affect cause my mate shuan got some for his 32 on your first group buy and didnt mention an issue to me, just thought i'd mention it, wouldnt be to hard to re-fabricate a new mounting position, if anyone thinkin of doing it would be nice to see some before and after see if it makes any difference anywhere

      I agree re not trusting it as it makes mistakes however can do hours of research for you at times by simply asking a question

      The I've done a lot of research and feel like I'm becoming a nut and washer expert. The washer in question doesn’t look very conical—it’s almost flat, but one side has a chamfer. The guide's picture shows the convex side (chamfered side) facing the nut, but the text says the chamfer should face the pulley, which is confusing. If I follow the picture, the chamfer faces the nut, but the instructions say the opposite. When I place the washer on a flat surface, one side looks flatter—maybe that's the concave side—so I would expect the chamfer to be on that side. But it isn’t, which adds to the confusion. The term chamfer is also throwing me off. I always thought the concave side should face the pulley, and the convex side (with the chamfer) should face the nut or bolt head. But Nissan’s instructions say the chamfer should face the pulley, which seems backward. I know I’m probably overthinking it, but I want to be sure I’m doing it right. Also, I’ve seen some people replace the nut and stud with a bolt, but I assume that’s not a good idea, since it might not keep proper tension on the tensioner. Lastly, just to be 100% sure: the pressure washer should face the pulley, then the conical washer? That feels strange, since usually the pressure washer goes first, facing the bolt or nut.

      I checked, i dont think it was the indicator stalk. The problem just magically fixed itself though.

      H1 is not the Humvee, but is the most road based version. Lachlan (HankScorpio) on here has a proper Humvee. He imported it a few years back.
