who claims your econo goes out the windows :woot: to my knowledge this is lies

after personally driving same car with cat and without mine hasn't changed from a cat

My mate had no cat on his GTR and he reakons that he got really bad fuel economy....so thats where i got that bit of information from steve

maybe the bad econo come from putting his foot down all the time to hear the improved note?

i know thats what happened with my old stato...

my fuel economy isnt the best right now any way, i told simon when he tuned the fc not to worry bout fuel consumtion.

as its not a daily.

if i drive it on both days of the weekend, i easily eat through a tank of ultimate.

my knocked out cat is no probs at the moment! but saying that after i knocked it out i did blow my turbo! but i did put a jazma exhaust on to keep the noise down and i like it quiet! but since the exhaust is already restricting, it doesn't pop flames and smell, and the noise was the same but i did see a bit more top end in my rev range!

more of a reason to hybridge! gt30 woo anyway mine only blew because i was trying to squeeze as much out of it as possible til my cat started to restrict the turbo from spooling anymore! so after knocking out the cat the turbo had nothing restricting it and it span away

had it all fixed today, 3'' one peice dump front pipe from turbo all the way to first muffler, onto the hks rear cannon style muffler.

took out the cat all together as it was pretty much blocked (seen it for myself)

sounds much better, rob did a great job, highly recommended!!!

all up including the dump pipe,extra pipework, flanges and gaskets etc it come to $525.

:down:

nice and cheap craig....now just dont let a cop have a look at that mate....

i dont plan on it lol...

i cant remember who said it, but someone on here said i better hope a cop doesnt hear the screamer on the way to get the new pipe

well, as i was driving past ttp on the way to rampage, guess who pulled up next to me at the lights, yep, the po po.

i was already thinking of excuses and shitin myself, then i noticed they had the windows down, i was sure i was going to get done, it sounded like a bloody tractor!!!

but..they didnt even look at me! thank god.

then i realised, they pulled into maccas, so it was obviously breakfast time, so they had better things to do than pull me over.

it got my heart going thats for sure.

i had a gasket leak on my 33 and it sounded just like yours.....similar to a tractor.......and i cop pulled me over....he thought it was a worked up motor.....i was like duuude wtf lol......i was on the way to the mechanics as well.....dumb cops

mods, please delete any info in relation to the possibility of getting my car defected from this thread.

due to sapol making there presense felt here,

i will be keeping all future modifications to my car, quiet.

thank you in advance, craig.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
