Hey guys just wondering should i be worried over this thing? when in high rpm's and high speed my exhaust cannon goes cherry red and ashes sometimes come out of it? why does this happen? my car is a R33 GTST the exhaust is 3inch straight through with decat pipe

Cheers

save yourself a huge fine and damage to your car and fit a cat.

ALOT! , But i bashed out my cat :P hhehe

Most things I've seen say you actaully loose horespower doing that. De-cat pipe> high flow cat> regular cat> gutted cat when horspower is the determining factor.

fine in SA is a max of 10k. but they can only test you if you go for an inspection. the cops cant look under and assume because they cant see it then it's not there.

only EPA can fine you and they must perform emissions testing to prove.

plus if ur silly enough to go for an inspection without a cat then u deserve a fine...

Yet in NSW the EPA does random road side inspections...

And they will slap you with a 10K fine in NSW if found on the road like it.

some cannons have materials in there for sound dampening etc, if its getting too hot, then they could catch fire and this could be the ashes you see.

    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
    • I use FCC car launcher. It has an option for different backgrounds, so instead of turning the screen off you can swipe 'up' to a black screen with no background/icons. (mine has the time on it only). It's kinda nice. Also lets you use gestures to say swipe to go to next song, etc.
