nah not a noob question man. how would u learn if u dont ask?

there are variations on the design of o2 sensors. but in general most look like this:

they are located usually in the dump pipe. your should see it sticking out the top of the dump pipe.

it is the size of the THREAD that u have to worry about when fitting one, but most are universal fit, it is the wiring you have to watch for.

it is used to measure the AFR, then the ecu uses that info to make its adjustments.

but it is predominately used for cruising

ah cool I found it, was thinking the guys took it off when they installed an after market muffler on my car.

It sounds nice but tis shit on fuel econ and performance, had a look today and it seems they used 2" - 2.25" piping :huh:

Did you get a whole new exhaust sytem or just the catback? They wont change the dump/front and/or cat unless you ask them.

Stock dump/front pipe is 2.25" (I think, or 2.5", 2" is for NA's). (See below for pic on R33 GTST.)

ps. rofl @ your signature. What year did you leave?

nah I just had a muffler change, cause my friend told me about some of the horror stories ppl had with a cat/turbo back system installed

I measured the stock GTS-T piping and it's 60mm in diameter, the piping i had was 55mm, though not alot in it

they had to bend the pipe to fit it on which makes some part oval like and I dun think that's good for the exhaust

Oh and I left at 2000

    • Depending on the purpose of the car, and how much more fabbing you want to do, and what clearances you have, you could look to raise the motor, which will raise the front diff up. Likely would mean altering the chassis rails etc etc, hence the more fab work you'd need to do. However, this can create issues, not just in clearance with everything fitting under the bonnet, but you've also raised a LOT of weight up in the car, and this will DEFINITELY alter handling characteristics (But, so will how much weight you've already added to the front end). You'll also have to deal with the fact the gearbox to rear diff is now out of alignment too for the tail shaft, and alter the angle of the diff, or deal with a bit of potential vibration. Raising the motor an inch up, is effectively the same as making the whole car sit higher by not lowering it as far. So one inch higher motor, theoretically means you can drop the car an extra inch lower, and maintain the same angles in the CVs. Again, depends on the purpose of the car. If it's a just cruiser on the street car, maybe won't be an issue. If it's meant to be a time attack car, I can see you not wanting to raise the motor. This is just for you to ponder as an idea.
    • Have you not seen geospy.ai? It can now give GPS co ords to within a metre from a photo, even if it's a random photo you take inside. Supposedly at the moment only the government/law enforcement has access to that... Supposedly...
    • I've got the rear ones, they're certainly beefy. I need to take them to my driveshaft guru to check over, he's very fussy about the quality of components so I'll let you know if they are made of cheese by a blind man.   Are you in Australia? A mate just had a set of EN26 shafts made for his K20 Lotus by our fabricator which were quite cheap (compared to Driveshaft Shop) so if you can procure the CV's and draw what you need he'd make them for ~$800 for the pair.
    • Had I known the diff between R32 and R33 suspension I would have R33 suspension. That ship has sailed so I'm doing my best to replicate a drop spindle without spending $4k on a Billet one.
    • OEM suspension starts to bind as soon as the car gets away from stock height. I locked in the caster and camber before cutting off the kingpin. I then let the upright down in a natural (unbound) state before re-attaching it. Now it moves freely in bump and droop relative to the new ride height. My plan is to add GKTech arms before the car is finished so I can dial camber and caster further. It will be fine. This isn't rocket science. Caster looks good, camber is good, upper arm doesn't cause crazy gain and it is now closer to the stock angle and bump steer checks out. Send it.
