I'm finally fitting the new dump and hi flo cat, already have 3"" cat back.

Question, do you have to put the heat sheilds back on the dump and cat? I guess the sheild at the start of the dump is to be tossed as there are no posies to bolt it .

Is it better to get some new heat shield material in lieu of factory stuff? If so what?

Cheers.

exhaust wrap should do the trick? i have used it on extractors for the ford i had, wrapped all the way up to the head. I didnt measure temps before and after, tho, so have no info regarding cooling gains, but it is easy to use, just wrap it around, overlapping by half each time, so it ends up two layers thick down the length of the pipe.

put anything back on that you can. anything you can't put back have a good look around and make sure there are no wires, aircon pipes etc too close.

Thanks guys. Its all in and feels so SMOOTH. Still nice and quiet but has a new feel.

Incidently it all fitted perfectly. No mods necessary.

Used a JJ bellmouth dump R33 gtst and X Force hi flow cat. Fitted without any mods. Could only get 5 of the six bolts to the turbo without removing A/C pipes.

Noticed a stud was broken at end of exhaust manifold, there is no leak so did not fix. Maybe one day when I get a new turbo.

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
