yeah it does, ive got it flanged so i can put a replacement pipe in. That makes a real difference, once the car hits 3grand it just moves, with the cat on it kicks in from about 4500rpm, im gettin a custom track exhaust, from extractors will split in to 2 11/2 inch pipes and exit at the side :D will make a hell of a difference i reckon

yes an NA car does need a certain amount of backpressure but this is already happening through ur headers and the rest of the exaust system, gutting the cat deristricts the exaust a fair bit and is definately a noticable power increase, those extractors where 285 bucks plaus 150 for fitting, the most worth while mod i have done yet.

by keeping the exhaust at 2 1/2 it keeps the back pressure at a good level, gutting the cat is illegal of course and it does screw things up abit u have to gut it and put a stealth pipe in it, visible as a cat, but its a pipe inside a box. my old zorst was 2 1/2 all through

i've got an auto r33 - but its the 5 speed auto version with a really short 1st which helps acceleration - i get around 7.5-7.8s for 0-100 - i've god k&n pod filter with divider in the engine bay, that's it (running 98 RON petrol all the time and service every 5,000 with anti-friction oil - i reckon it helps!)

i beat a wrx with a bov one night - that was pretty funny i think the guy was a sh!t driver tho, and i can keep up with my mate's ca18 silvia (rebuilt and boosted to 12psi)

8.2 sec is a bit slo for a '33 - even an auto - do u torque brake?

i think its slow too!

i wana go against an r33 with the same mods or less and see how i go..

do i torque brake?

i duno wat that means

but if u mean start of with ure foot on ya damn brake and on the gas and take it of brake

then yea thats wat i did to get that time.

try doing a 0-100 with the stock wheels, since i put my 17's on it has lost a little accelaration (diameter is slightyly bigger) i got 225/50/r17 on mine, if urs are 45 or lower then it really shouldnt make a difference, but tyres and width can also make a difference. u lose out on speed but handling gains heaps:)

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
