After Some Advice For Tail Pipe Hangers

Hey guys....

I am in need of some help, my A31 ceffy has had no tail pipe for some while now as its just been sitting around in the garage,

This is mainly due to the hangers not being there.

There is nothing existing there at the moment for me to hold up the tail pipe so i was just after some ideas from ur own cefiro's.

I have a 3'' pipe with a single canon which i may get rid of and change it to dual straight pipes similar to the Dart Izumi style.

If any of u has pics or can be bothered to crawl under there and take a pic for me that would be greatly appreciated.

Also do 1 piece aftermarket R32Gtst or R33 dump+front pipes bolt up without any trouble?

Thanks guys for any information that can be shared with me.

Skyline exhausts don't fit because they are shorter wheelbase than the cefiros/laurels.

Mine has a bracket right behind the rear bumper for the exhaust hanger. I'd suggest get rid of the cannon and get the pipes on.

what about 4 door lines? 32 or 33?

actually now that I think about it, since cefiro's share 50% of parts with R31's under the bonnet, maybe their exhausts might be similar too?

4 door skylines have the same wheelbase as 2 doors. A31/C33 have a longer wheelbase (hence why you can't use skyline tailshafts).

Could try an R31? Would have to see what their exhausts look like.

A31/C33 catbacks are pretty straight, they only have 1 30deg set in them. (Not like skyline/silvia exhausts have multiple 90deg bends)

What about just the section between the turbo and the cat?? (the dump and front pipe)

is that part roughly similar to R32 or 33?

From cat back i will get custom made as it has only 1 slight bend and is fairly easy to make by the looks of it, just want to know if the dump and front pipe will fit up alright.

Thanks Daisu for info on the hanger.... you wouldnt happen to have any pics of it?

      This is how I last did this when I had a master cylinder fail and introduce air. Bleed before first stage, go oh shit through first stage, bleed at end of first stage, go oh shit through second stage, bleed at end of second stage, go oh shit through third stage, bleed at end of third stage, go oh shit through fourth stage, bleed at lunch, go oh shit through fifth stage, bleed at end of fifth stage, go oh shit through sixth stage....you get the idea. It did come good in the end. My Topdon scan tool can bleed the HY51 and V37, but it doesn't have a consult connector and I don't have an R34 to check that on. I think finding a tool in an Australian workshop other than Nissan that can bleed an R34 will be like rocking horse poo. No way will a generic ODB tool do it.

      Hmm. Perhaps not the same engineers. The OE Nissan engineers did not forsee a future with spacers pushing the tie rod force application further away from the steering arm and creating that torque. The failures are happening since the advent of those things, and some 30 years after they designed the uprights. So latent casting deficiencies, 30+ yrs of wear and tear, + unexpected usage could quite easily = unforeseen failure. Meanwhile, the engineers who are designing the billet CNC or fabricated uprights are also designing, for the same parts makers, the correction tie rod ends. And they are designing and building these with motorsport (or, at the very least, the meth addled antics of drifters) in mind. So I would hope (in fact, I would expect) that their design work included the offset of that steering force. Doesn't mean that it is not totally valid to ask the question of them, before committing $$.

      The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.

      But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...

      I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
