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.

    • Are you suggesting that the kit did a cheap and nasty job of just jamming the wheel in between other things and caused the misalignment? I mean, we normally do this with an integrated crank trigger wheel, not something bodged on. It's not 1995 any more.
    • I mean, given the number of BMWs you own their tolerance for improper torque is rather low. The number of torque + angle spec bolts and non-reusable bolts in one is nuts.
    • Atmospheric vent requires something that doesn't use a MAF for load. You would need a standalone ECU for that.
    • Hey all,   I’ve got an RB25 with a trigger kit that includes a crank wheel, and I’ve hit a wall trying to sort a timing belt tracking issue. The belt either rides right on the edge of the cam/crank pulleys or walks slightly forward once the engine starts. It tracks okay-ish for a moment, then creeps right to the edge—and honestly, it’s stressing me out.   I’ve spent hours removing and reinstalling the belt, double-checking everything:   Tensioner setup is good, checked multiple times Idler pulley and washers are all in the correct places Followed the RB25 timing procedure step-by-step     The only thing I changed was the rear crank washer—I swapped the OEM one for a Neato version, and it made things worse. The belt now sits even more forward than before. I’m beginning to think the crank trigger wheel itself (from the trigger kit) is the issue—poor design or slightly off dimensions.   What’s strange is that with the previous belt setup, it actually ran fine for a couple of years—around 4,000 to 5,000 miles, even with hard driving and high RPMs. But even then, the belt was always riding right on the edge, and I know that’s not ideal or safe long term.   At this point, I’m debating whether to:   Machine a few mm off the crank trigger wheel to bring it back in line, or Replace it entirely with a better-designed unit     Only thing is, I already have the Cherry Hall sensors, bracket, etc.—I just want to replace the wheel only, not the entire kit. Anyone know a brand or supplier that sells just the crank trigger wheel on its own?   Would really appreciate any feedback—especially from anyone who’s run into this exact issue and found a reliable fix.   Thanks in advance.
    • Hi...a little refresh. Is Nistune gonna be enough to run BoV? Or do i need some proper ECU?
