Got EPA'd again.... this time we actually have to take it to Mcleod or wherever to the EPA testing place.

Where both sick to death of the damn exhaust and its not so its time to get a new one that isnt so bloody loud and has a removable silencer (but isnt overly loud without it).

Anyone know someone with a soarer exhaust? aftermarket prefered... or at least where to get a decent one for it?

i was thinking with the other one we could keep it and cut out the resonator and mufflers and just weld in some str8 pipe for when we take it to calder and stuff.

nark - i have the older style Trust Mx with front pipe (no dump pipe) on my soarer. Its really not that loud at all apart from at full revs, but mines an auto so there a bit less... but it really is a nice zorst. Only thing is your looking at about 2k just for catback (its dual)

what do you have now?

cheers,

dave

lol omg u posted in here :P

nothing wrong with my foot... altho i almost got done on the way home... was speeding just a "little" on one section... nothing major like 2 over or something... memorys not that great :(

dave - not looking at wasting too much money on it... i think the exhaust place we took it to to put the stockie on for the last test said it was a 4" trust system with a copy end bit (not sure on the correct term for it :))

going to Daalder on the weekend... i doubt they will be able to reduce the exhaust to 90DB with one resonator... altho it already has one on it as well as an extra muffler but its going to restrict it too much.

no nark is just talking to himself and his alter-personality again :(

pretty rough about another EPA, think cops would have better crap to do.. McLeod really must get sick of it, although the guy said he liked seeing the nice cars come in each week :P

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
