cheers, I always lol when people think that an s13 is in some way slower and less capable than a r33

That's unfair though, 33s are boats.

S13s certainly plough a field better :)

they're a good engine, shame about the noise (and lack of cylinders)

yeah the noise can be ok with bigger turbo and decent exhaust, the more its muffled the worse it is lol, will never sound as good as a RB though...as for lack of cylinders pfftt 86mm x 86mm goodness, its the goldern ratio for revs vs torque,any more cylinders and you would end up with a silly little thing that doesnt make peak torqe till 6400rpm! :)

I love tractors now, i am seriously considering ditching the GTR when its rebuilt and focusing my efforts on the sil80

tristan likes this a lot, a hell of a lot :)

yeeh will never be as good as rb - but can sound tasty, oh and epic sr flutterzzzzzz

:) i was joking

dave and i just re did my zorst to sort out all the epic leaks - we used that high heat gasket goo and gaskets

:)

Don't spose you know what the standard "3inch" gasket part number is? I CBF tracing the flange's and taking it in to super cheap

Depends..

I haven't order'd a de-pu$$y pipe yet, because I dunno if it well sell today on ebay, plus i CBF fitting the front pipe myself

I don't bother with any gasket goo or anything with exhaust gaskets...

just go into rapeco and ask for a standard 2 (or 3 if thats what you need) 3" exhaust gasket. They'll find it for you. Or an exhaust shop

    • 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.
