Sup bitches. Posting from iPhone because telstra and tpg combined to form super aids. Average weekend went out with a few mates on sat night n had a few drinks. Did all my washing n shit and then rode to burleigh heads on the pushy lol. No idea why just bored lol. Now I'm sunburnt listening to the clash and reading. Back for more work rapage tomorrow hurrah

Just keep a look out for them on forums. Maybe import monster or ebay?

+1 for TE37. Looks great + easier to clean that multis. Man your 34 is really a money pit now! Just got new rims not long ago and now you're changing again... Hahaha.

PS: you do realise for TE37s to have those dish size, you'll needa get 10.5" yah?

Just to semi correct this. Te37s don't have a lot of dish in 18s the only way to get a nice lip on them is to get the 19s. On the 18s the wider you go the more concave the spokes are. The dish stays pretty much the same.

hey guys,

posted a thread in another section, only got a few replies yet,

just thought i should ask opinions here as well,

basically My Fujistubo Titanium Cat-back as you guys now is very quiet until about 4000rpm, especially on idle etc, its mainly because of the resonator, currently it meets all DB sound levels and ive never had problems with cops etc when i get pulled over,

ive put in a high flow cat and front pipes now so that should deepen the note but sometimes especially after being in other peoples cars here feel like have a exhaust thats a bit louder below 4000rpm as well, so i was considering cutting out the resonator and putting in a straight pipe,

i am 99% sure it will be over the 90db limit once this is done, do you guys reckon its worth the extra attention from coppers and possible defects or should i just stick with what i have now, its only a 100 dollar job to do and doesnt take very long,

i havent heard what the car sounds like now after the cat and front pipes btw.

Hmmm what to get, What to get ? ? ?

You're getting a complete tune done so your car will sound different from before. Save your penny's and keep your mum happy if you can. If you've got something really restrictive I'm sure the elite one can help you with that. I took a look at your car on Friday when I was there too, coming along nicely

Thanks for that. Seen 19x10.5 +22 in real life and they have very fat dish.

Titanium? Are you sure? I've done a bit of research before and its very hard to weld steel to titanium or even titanium to titanium...

Anyone wanna buy pods or hks bovs? My friend's got a couple here for sale if anyone's interested. Got them for his silvia but didnt end up using them.

hks bov: what one? and how much?

yeh man im not relly sure if taking out the resonator is gona mean better flow?exhaust is good flowing anyway just very quiet.

you've been complaining about your exhaust volume since the day I met you. You obviously just want to do it to make it louder so just do it already and quit bitching about it and asking for approval :thumbsup:

Hey :thumbsup:

I came across this little gem in my travels that I though you all might like.

Gentlemen, I present to you the Basilica of St Mang.

haha @ Isola. lol well i was overwelmed by every1s car being so loud and mine sounded lke a corolla on idle, i actully thought something was wrong with my exhaust, only found out about Fujistubo and thier resonator crap a few weeks ago LOL

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
