not to sound dumb or any thing but what breathers and acc feed ??

yer ive wanted to do this for ages now i just for it and it turned out good very thin stuff to weld thou need patience

oil breathers, the back pipe that goes from the fitting on the plenum to the black fittings that are on the top of the engine, on the cam covers, then to the intake.

aac valve feed. the 20-25mm pipe at the back of the engine that usually goes on a fitting just before the throttle body on the stock pipe. without this your cars idle wont be stable.

im talkin about the ic piping from tge plenum and im gonna have to weld something at the back for that black hose to attach to and for the other breathers im making a catch can to go where my battery is as my battery is moving to the boot

i'll put up picks in the next week or so of the 2 rb20's ive done ic piping one.. im in the process of doin fmic piping on a rb20 silvia at the moment.. after thats done i'll try get pics up

im not actually a fan of that style of ic piping with the factory manifolds but looks ok.. be sure to put up pics once you've finished.

sounds good, just not much detail in your first post :thumbsup:

what material did you use thats so thin? most alloy tubing i see is pretty thick

it was 1.6mm half of it is the stock pipe and i bought a 180 DEGREE bend it was hard to weld because it was a buut joint and you need the rightn pulse and frequincy along with the correct amps of course

cool man will be good to see some stuff youve put together,yer i cant afford a forward facing plenum yet so i just wanted to take off the stock pipe that crosses the block

shit yer ,man that looks nice are you a fabricator of some sort or is this just week end work either way very nice work

thanks not quailited just done alot and lot of work with in the metal industry as a labourer.. did start doin an apprentiship as a boily however i have umm how do you say it.. problems with authority lol

the piping jobs i do are more of a hobby and to help people out who have been quoted stupid bullshit prices for the work.. would probaly look at it more as a business adventure however theres just not enough work for it up here and not many people want to pay for a top job.. they'd rather spend 3/4 the price for a cheap shitty chinese supposely "bolt on" kit..

    • Lol a few are like that with no intention of being reborn unfortunately. 
    • Done, I'll do mine soon too - whenver I take out the car next. I can cheat and make it quieter by turning off VCT at idle too - but I lose the braps
    • All trim back in wired running driving. Few things to follow up on but not far off the return to the road. att.6HN4wP38LTIOISkhA8eACoBFqzfgQMahZPLA8ut0pqE.mp4 att.w2q0ux2PGuqgQTj2Os13cNHQtqcSEcCAhD_CAXy_IQM.mp4
    • The trouble with phone apps is that they really do not know the sensitivity of the mic on each specific phone, whether there is some sort of cover or skin that can change that, etc etc. So the readings off them are not calibrated. You certainly couldn't be sure that you were even within 3 dB. I have the same app on two (actually more than that) different phones/tablets and the readings in the same room at the same time are never the same. I don't mind the apps - they are as useful as a dyno - if you're testing for delta from thing1 to thing2. But not to try to generate some sort of absolute value.
    • I'm gonna use the "Sound Meter" app from the Google Play Store and as close as I can bother to these procedures: 4. TEST METHOD FOR ALL VEHICLES EXCEPT PRE ADR83 IN-SERVICE GOODS VEHICLES AND OMNIBUSES 4.1 Microphone position 4.1.1 The microphone shall be directed towards the orifice of the exhaust outlet and shall be supported by a tripod or similar device not providing excessive acoustic reflection. The general requirements for positioning microphones are shown in the Appendix. 4.1.2 The nominal axis of maximum sensitivity of the microphone shall be substantially parallel to the test site surface and shall make an angle of 45 degrees ±10 degrees with the principal direction of gas flow from the exhaust. 4.1.3 In selecting the 45 degree alignment from the outlet of a motor vehicle fitted with two or more outlets, only the angle resulting in the microphone being farthest from any other outlet must be used. National Stationary Exhaust Noise Test Procedures for In-Service Motor Vehicles Page 3 4.1.4 The height of the microphone above the test site surface shall be equal to that of the orifice of the exhaust outlet ±25mm but shall not be less than 200mm above the test site surface. 4.1.5 The distance of the microphone from the exhaust outlet orifice shall be 500mm±25mm. 4.1.6 [Relates to vertical exhaust outlets] 4.1.7 For vehicles fitted with one exhaust outlet the microphone shall be placed so that the greatest possible distance is achieved between it and the vehicle. 4.1.8 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] 4.1.9 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] TLDR: 200mm off ground 45 degree angle relative to exhaust flow 500mm from tailpipe exit. (I probably won't use a tripod) Here's a photo, cause I read the instructions wrong myself.
