ey guys need some help on wat do, im stuck.

my next thing on my 33 is to get my exaust done, ive been quoted 1050 dollars for a 3" stainless turbo back exaust? wat does everyone reckon, good price? should i worry about stainless or jst go mild steel? or does any one have ant bolt on kits that i could buy or get from somewhere???

also for my FMIC wat should i do, found a cooling pro kit that connects straight up to the stock intercooler pipes. i dunno wat i wanna do, how easy is it to fit these after market FMIC in the stock front bar of a r33 series 2. Any one have any hints or tips for installing them.

Thanks For the help guys

Adam

Id have a look through the trader section for exhuasts, there are quite a few who supply a wide range of exhausts. As for the cooler, i just fitted my type 2 cooling pro kit. Jenkies had to make custom brackets for it, but other than that, no problems at all!

Sounds like a good price, but does it include a high flow cat? Stainless muffler or resonator? Do you know exactly what it is going to sound like? And what volume it is going to be? If the price difference isn't massive I would go stainless every time, as it will last a lot longer. If you want to be prudent, get them to change over your turbo exhaust housing studs while they do the job - can save you heartache down the track.

I have the cheap-ass JustJap intercooler and it works great. Not sure if it is cooling pro or not. If the one you are looking at hooks up to stock pipes then I would assume not. The big problem with a cooler that joins up to stock pipes, it that it presumably has a long pipe running the length under the intercooler back the the stock pipes - these can hang below the level of your bumper bar. If the one you are looking at doesn't have that pipe, then they are bugger to install - you have to cut a hole in your engine bay wall for the return pipe, lose your air snorkel, and trim your clutch fan blades.

Either way you are almost certainly going to have to trim your reo bar, and will definitely have to trim the inside of your bumper bar, to fit the cooler in. These are not difficult jobs, but not for the faint-hearted either. If you are not pretty strongly mechanically inclined, then I would pay someone to fit it. A pile of SAU people had a go at installing a members intercooler one afternoon recently, and from memory didn't actually complete the project within a day :D

yeah like nightcrawler said! i think i was quoted just under 2k somewhere for exhaust, it included a cat, resonator and a muffler! but it was gonna be abit loud, i think the last r33 they tested was like 96-97 db with the same exhaust! i wanted it quiet so i shopped around and pick up a jazma 3" cat back for cheap as chips! got a 3" xforce front/dump real cheap as well! i then picked up a 3" high flow cat from an r34 for like 50 bucks! but i ended up decating my own cat but all up i spent around $500 on my exhaust system! just shop around if you don't wanna pay that sort of price

as for the fmic! i have never run into one which just fits directly without any modifications! i always ended up bending pipes and adding some on

cheers for all the reply guys

as for the quote it was for a 3" stainless dump pipe, that has the 2 seperate pipes for wastegate and exaust gases, a 3" high flow cat, and a 3inch piping while ill keep my cannon at the back, i was wanting it to keep the same/similar sound as it has now as its not to loud and sounds alrite atm, jst need the flow casue it kinda feels restriced at higher rev ranges. I think ill jst try find a FMIC and get soem1 to install it casue cbf tryin to cut the stuff on the inside of the front bar i dont wanna stuff it up.

That price sounds really good for a split dump, high flow cat and 3" stainless right through including install! A stainless split dump is $250-$300 and high flow cat $200-$300 on their own.

Nigel does some quality work there at streamline. He usually does all the pipework and fabricating from scratch from what i've seen, which is probably why youve been quoted that much.

I reccomend his work for sure!

He actually worked on my corolla exhaust last weekend after somehow mysteriously blowing the rear muffler :D

Another +1 for Nigel at Streamline.

He fixed up the loose exhaust manifold for my R34 back a few weeks ago, great guy to deal with - seems very genuine and was happy to show me around the car and what he'd be doing, etc.

      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.
