a bit off topic, but can i ask why you turbo guys always talk about getting a turbo back exhaust or cat back, why not go the whole hog and get a set of extractors fitted. surely this would improve flow and shorten spool up time. i have also noticed that very few of you replace internals such as cams and was wondering why when you consider the expense of normal mods that are done.

hmm extractors on a turbo car?? how do u expect the turbo to work?

u could get a better flowing exhaust manifold for the turbine inlet thats about all.

i don't know myself how i've waited this long...i've tried to forget about it but that didn't work too well. i've got no car at the moment so that makes it so much worse.

all my friends think i have just been bullshitting to them about me buying a skyline because i told them about a month ago that i would have it and then everyweek since i've saying yeah it's on it's way....i can't wait to see their faces when i pull up next to them and blow all their commodores off the line though

onarun: what did you loose you license for?

i get mine back on June 4 and have already lost points on it so i'm only going to have 1 point as soon as i get it back.

from everything that has been happening to me i'm starting to think that i'm not meant to have a car or something like that :roll:

I've seen a few around sydney, but sorry don't have any pics. :P

A bit off the topic, would such a mod would be classified as a defect?

:evil:[/quote:e06d187810]

not sure if it will be a defect, i think all they have to go on with exhausts is noise, emmissions and clearance. with clearence it should only become a problem if some part of the exhaust is close to or below the bottom of my rim without a tyre (in case of a tyre blow out etc etc). r33 is not a loud engine so thats ok and emissions, well the cop would have to be a tool.

      Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
