ok, my extractors are getting fitted tomorrow, they are cutting off the original final 2 into 1 cone that has a 2inch diameter and replacing it with a 2 1/2 inch one to suite the rest of my system. Ill let u all know how it goes.

Hey pipols, i got my extractors fitted last Friday, and i can only describe them as excellent, definetly more tork in the low to mid rev range, and it 'seems' to go harder in the higher end of the rev range as well, they allso enlarged the final few inches of the extractors to 2.5 inches.

cool greg, my exhaust is a little louder at idle, and a bit more throatier on acceleration, but i only have the standard exhaust with standard cat, with a lukey sports muffler, it seems that my standard exhaust is 214 inch in diamater, is that the standard factory size? im planning oh a high flow cat, and a 212 inch system soon, or maybe even a 3 inch, but dont know if the noise will be to much if i went the 3.

dont go 3 inch u will lose performance most likely cos lack of back pressure! keep it at 2 1/4 - 2 1/2 ", wat kind of lukey muffler is it ? get a hi flo cat as well, catalytic converters are so bad, mine is flanged and wen i take it off and put the pipe there it makes a huge difference.

there are other ways round buying a high flow cat, they are very restrictive and pratically useless after 60000k's neways. Apparently i read somewhere that a well tuned rb engine will still pass an emissions test without one? dont know how true that is.

my car came with a HKS 2 1/2 inch Super Drager exhaust, the extractors are "Coby" brand, ordered from www.partsco.com in New Zealand i think. I modified the final 2 into 1 section of the extractors to be 2 1/2 inch diameter to match my exhaust system.

    • I’m here solo don’t have any hands to help so haven’t hit it with a timing light 
    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
