hey all,

well i finally got my R32 gtst, although i want to make the exhaust legal by putting a high flow resonator on it.....its currently at 120db and want it under 90db. who makes some good decent priced high flow resonators that u guys know of?? prefrebally in the SE area of melb closer to Glen waverely the better.

Also the car has been broken into at one point and the locks are a bit buggered up, who sells and installs locks for the R32 also in the same area???

its also got a really loud fluttereing BOV, think its stock one not sure haven't had a good look yet, wots the process of making it a plumb back???

hope u guys and gals can help. ASAP!! cheers!!!

i've had a look and it is a stock plumb back, but because its got higher boost running and a POD i think thats the reason its fluttereing so much? wot u guys reckon? would the WOLF3D have anything to do with it??

would putting a stock airbox and lowering the boost decrease some of the noise??

I think Before you go about "modding" your car I think you need to decide what you want from it in the long run, Becuase doing things twice can become a real costly affair,

Now a fluttering blowoff? what you mean exactly is there a "chhh"

sortoff sound aswell as the fluttering or is there just only flutter

because if ther eis only a flutter the previous owner has blocked the plumb back to the airinlet forcing the air to be thrown back to atmo through the turbine this is generally not very good for the turbo.

yeah more a sound as when i back off it goes chhh chhh chhh chhh chhh ch ch ch pretty quick but with gaps inbetween, not the psst from a BOV, as i said in last post i think, i've had a look and its running the blumb back and the noise seems to be coming more from the POD area. not the blumb back thingy

Yep it sounds like the prev owner has blocked the plumb line on your intake plenum undo the BOV and see if they have put in a spacer plate to block it up. if not they blocked it up in the line that runs to the turbo inlet (assuming this is the STOCK BOV)

hope this makes sense to you

The BOV located on top of the INLET PLENUM is held in by 2 bolts undo them and it will lift right off.

Good luck.

well PRO_32, thanks heaps, u were right!! i pulled off the bov and there was a plate blockin the hole. ripped it off, sealed it with some silicon and bolted it back on, now all i get is one swoosh of air gushing out. i'm guessing thats how the plumb back should sound. Thou will this now stuff up the fuel maps on the WOLF EMS?

Mufflers Now in Oakleigh [1611 Dandenong Road, near FTG road] and talk to Matt. Phone is 9563-1166 Apparently these guys do a swirl flow resonator that keeps the flow and cuts the noise well. GO THE 4 DOOR!!!

thanks Autotrust, thou part of the nissansilvia.com group buy i got a good deal on a bigger muffler today. i had a straight thru one on and at same time i realised i had a stock cat on the 3" piping, so i got the bigger slightly more buffled muffler put on and gonna get a larger high flow cat on soon. so in long run will be less restrictive and still legal cos i'm just under 90db!!! And yeah go the 4 door!!

    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
