Thats really smart where could i get hold of one of those babys ?

If the engine has:

i)i) 5 cylinders or less 4000 rpm.

ii)ii) 6 cylinders 3200 rpm.

iii)iii) 8 cylinders 3300 rpm.

iv)iv) more than 8 cylinders 4300 rpm.

v)v) If the engine is a rotary engine 4500 rpm rpm.

In selecting the 45 degree alignment from the outlet of a motor vehicle fitted with two or more outlets, only the angle resulting in the microphone being farthest from any other outlet must be used.

4.1.44.1.4 The height of the microphone above the test site surface shall be equal to that of the orifice of the exhaust outlet ±25mm but shall not be less than 200mm above the test site surface.

4.1.54.1.5 The distance of the microphone from the exhaust outlet orifice shall be 525mm ±25mm.

To be honest alot of people get afraid of it mainly because i got the cage in there And its really loud and tough looking i get alot of thumbs up , But i always get the Bogans In there v8s geeing me up thinking they got a chance but the look on there Face When I pass them , They aint too too happy :)

having an exhaust silencer is illegal in nsw

motorbikes db limit is 100db

Yeah its illegal but honestly wouldnt you rather put it on ? I was with my cousin on the weekend he has one on his RX7 And his got a bridgeport 13B Very Very loud , A police officer pulled him over and asked him why it was so loud ( He didnt see the police officer in enough time to press the button ) He told the officer there was a loose screw in the engine thats why it was loud he opened up the bonnet made it look like he was screing something pressed the button and it went qiuet and the cop believed him :thumbsup:

ahh no, i got my exhaust done by hi tech mufflers made to pass db levels (84db at 4800rpm) so i dont have to dick around with silencers and have to put up with that annoying drone in the cabin. and it's not restrictive at all. i honestly don't know how people drive around with loud exhausts day in day out.

and it's sounds like that cop was a dumb shit btw :thumbsup:

Do cops know if you have a silencer or not?

you would get into alot of Sh*ts if they found out rite? :P

is it possible if u could record ur exhaust with and without the silencer? :thumbsup:

another question... r motorbikes, truck & buses the same? i.e 90db? or do they have another figure?

I read somewhere that cars were to be 90db or less and motorbikes 93db!!!!!

Harleys are that at least just at idle!!!!

I've been sent a letter home from the EPA surprisingly for a reported loud exhaust, mine is pretty darn quiet. Someone must of dobbed me in.

Anyways had to go to a muffler shop and get it tested.

For a Skyline, the letter said it had to be revved to half the rev range, but mine said 4500rpm. Got it tested, all was under until the throttle was lifted at which point a couple of small pops set the reader over 90db.

Ouch!!! Get a life dobbers!!!

once again:If the engine has:

i)i) 5 cylinders or less 4000 rpm.

and yea smitizen u hit it on the head. CARS are limited to 90db

Man your boring i do my neighbours a favour waking them up in the morning. they thank me everyday :P

Loud cars for life :)

sorry man i dont really have time for the track ,

Look cops can bust you for a silencer but what can they do ??? They can issue you with a defect in which case you wil go pass it and then go from There ??? But i dont think many cops would pick these electronic ones as it is very hard to notice it unless your the smartest cop around. there aint many of them :thumbsup:

gah.!

speaking about the exhaust... couple of street racers... revving their engines and flooring the throttle down my road!

grrr.! *God Dam street racers* lol :P

bet u their ricers.. i'm trying to get a glimpse of the cars :thumbsup:

    • Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?
    • Look, realistically, those are some fairly chunky connectors and wires so it is a reasonably fair bet that that loom was involved in the redirection of the fuel pump and/or ECU/ignition power for the immobiliser. It's also fair to be that the new immobiliser is essentially the same thing as the old one, and so it probably needs the same stuff done to make it do what it has to do. Given that you are talking about a car that no-one else here is familiar with (I mean your exact car) and an alarm that I've never heard of before and so probably not many others are familiar with, and that some wire monkey has been messing with it out of our sight, it seems reasonable that the wire monkey should be fixing this.
    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
