i hope to get them started soon. either that or i will have to learn how to weld quickly to get them done!

Hadn't noticed mate!

In all seriousness though, can you see what the possibility of making up an 80mm or 82mm dump that fits on the standard exhaust is?

Haha possibly thats 3inch right? i'm sure thats what they will be doing.

unless i said 3,5 inch before. fitting to the standard exhaust how? the dump is going to be an exact copy of the stock one just different size and no cat stuffed in it.

76mm is 3". I am after 80mm or 82mm.

Yeah, a copy of the OE dump, just larger is what I am after... but since I have a larger front pipe, I figure I should make the most of it.

just a question re the fujitsumo legalis r .Is that a resonator behind the muffler or a cat?I'm looking at buying this system, and also a dump/front pipe without the cat on the front pipe.Perhaps those on this discussion can clarify this for me.There has been so much too-ing and Fro-ing about who can do what and what fits with what, i'm finding ia a bit hard to make sense of it. regards graham. :(

its muffler, a cat-back system is almost never supplied with a cat.

Thanks.Therefore if i did go for the fujitsubo, i would need a cat on the front pipe.Do you know if any one making up the dump pipes can supply a cat to go ?. How did any other fujitsubo owner do this if they have upgraded to a 3" or greater dump? :huh:

I have yet to get a dump as I am using the OE dump which contains a cat.

I run the Kakimoto front pipe which deletes the standard cat(s).

When I get the dump done, I will either have a Metal Cat welded into my Kakimoto pipe or I will sell the front pipe and get a dump/frontpipe/cat combo.

If I didn't live in Vic, where the police are defect-happy, I would just put a 3.25" dump on and be done with it :huh:

Yo!!

i am happy to say they are actually getting worked on now.

hes done all the turbo flange side of things. and is working on the pipes inbetween the flanges. so they are close to done.

hes uses 3 inch pipe cut with an insert inbetween then which would make it about 3.5inch around the turbo flange. but the main pipe is 3 inch..

i'll have to get some photos todat to show you. they look pretty good :)

i'll get a few done in 3.25 inch outlet for the front pipe people.. but 3 inch will be fine otherwise!! unless he has already completed them as i didnt even know he started them..

Good stuff Andrew!

Does that mean that, for us front pipe people, that the dump starts at 3.5" a the outlet, then goes to 3", then back to 3.25" where it connects to the front pipe?

Or am I reading that wrong? :)

I just got off the phone to him and they are 3inch all the way. tho the turbo flange section is large dew to it being cut up and bent/modified to suit the flange.

he cant do 3.25 since he doesnt have a flange in stock. and has completed most of them.

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
