[180JDM]

I have the new exhaust installed so the HKS rear is up for sale

No holes and in good condition (bottom of the tips are slightly scratched)

cheers

[[[d a n n y]]]

show me some pics of the HKS yo!!

[scotty nm35]

Or could you bring it over here so I can take some shots of it on my car.

[180JDM]

haha, I will try and get some taken tonight...give it a clean first.

My engine light come on the other day after I installed new headlights. (removed airbox and coolant bottle to get my hand in)

Had a look last night and one of the hoses from the intake pipe to the standard boost controller (only controls spikes) did come out, probably came out

when i was moving the afm around.

what would cause this?

cheers

The engine light has come on every time I have unplugged the AFM.

f that is all that you have done, it will turn off in time.

[zei20l]

only if you switch on the ignition or start the car with anything unplugged, and as cam said, it will be away about about 10 successful starts. i went to the dealer twice to get it cleared, but one time i couldnt be bothered but then it went away so i just leave it for a few days now............

[180JDM]

haha yeah i did just got a lil worried...not used to these lights poping coming from a 180sx

cheers Fellas

[iamhe77]

You could either wait for the light to disappear or you could ERASE IT

Doesn't take much to erase an error code.

[180JDM]

I just checked, came up with 0100 (MAF sensor) and 0110 (Intake Air Temp sensor)

just cleared the codes and didnt come back up

cheers fellas

[zei20l]

you turned on the ignition (or started the car) with the AFM unplugged, the MAF and temp sensor are in the same unit.

easy fix, only done it about 5 times myself

[180JDM]

haha nah i just had the ignition on when i had it disconnected.

Here is some pictures of the old exhuast for you! Its for sale.... PM me if you want it.

Cheers

FYI, thats only a rear muffler, the mid (massive) muffler is a stocker.

someone will buy it, however

[BensDR30]

OMFG, no wonder you guys want to fit a different exhaust to your cars - that thing's just hideous!

[180JDM]

haha i know mate, thats what the exhaust shop bloke said too! he said it is f*kin stupid also haha

couldnt have more of an restrictive exhaust for a turbo than that (the indent in the middle is there so it clears the tailshaft lol)

So how much do you want for the rear muffler?

Given how huge the centre muffler is, not sure how much of a restriction it is, but it would be absorbing a tonne of energy/sound. Would imagine that the bulk of restriction would be in the 4 cats before you get to the centre muffler...

If my memory serves me correctly, you've only got 2 cats Nick.

Dump & front pipe (as it should be from factory). Mine was the oddball exhaust, so don't go by that (dump, 3 or 4 in front pipe)

Plus the two in the exhaust manifolds (headers)... one on each side...

Need to have one in the manifold to be a LEV (Low Emissions Vehicle). These ones are supposed to remove all the nasties before the engine warms up properly..

che?

The VQ25det powered M35's were never a low emissions vehicle.

The PM35 was with the VQ35de and the VQ25dd, but never the turbo.

Pretty sure my exhaust manifold doesn't contain a couple of cats... but I feel the need to have another look now

[nickcorr]

RAWS Consumer Information Notice for my car states that 3 new cats were fitted at compliance

Two have the same part number and I assumed are in the manifolds area and the other third one, I also assume, would have been between the dump and the jumbo mid muffler..
