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.

nah mate just bolt up and enjoy :down:

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.

    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk  
    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
