Ok so i have been having a few issues with the 34 for a while now namely electrical/ sensors ect ect, and was having the fixed on thursday next week. but now i just started my car and it sounded....odd. 3x louder than usual, extreme loss of power and it sounds like my exhaust is below me feet. i checked underneath and found that i had exhaust comming from what looked like a loose connection in my exhaust setup. has anyone had this problem before? because i cant get underneath to fix it/ know how itt happned....can anyone help? or give a few ideas?

cheers....

I am not making sense of this ...

Your exhaust isn't attached in a place or is a bit or your exhaust missing? :S

Oh and it probably sounds like a rex because of your coil packs lol ...

a joint in a section has come lose, its not detached but i have exhaust leaking from it now...lol

i only had the coils put in less that 8,000 k's ago.... just tried to get to the coilpack/spark plug housing and now i find one of the bolts on the pipe above the housing is threadlocked......fail night lol

Oh I see, the usual things that causes this is becoming loss over time or hitting a bump etc ... It's an easy fix tho :blink:

Treadlocked = fail!

Sounds like the start of a long night lol ... Good luck with repairs :D

lucky! =P well i got under, and it turns out i have some shoddy workmanship. the weld that connects the other side of the exhaust has actualy come unstuck and is only held there by the bolts. so it seems it just have been what they used to seel the to parts.... kinda like this

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
