In Early 1970s they became standard (over a preiod of time, which I believe by early 1980s ALL vehicles were required to run a catalytic convertor, the only exception to date being vehicles running solely on LPG and CNG)

Read ADRs.

Nope, cats became law in Australia in 1986 when it became law that all new vehicles had to run on unleaded fuel. The main reason cars didnt run them before, was because the lead in super fuel would f**k them in fairly short order by poisoning the chemical reaction, eliminating the ability to deal with NoX.

What I find interesting, is a badly tuned car running a cat, or a car with a badly positioned cat (ie, aftermarket one fitted to a "custom" exhaust) is actually at a greater risk of ejecting such lovely byproducts such as amonia and hydrogen sulphide (also known as rotten egg gas) Now, all the tree hugging stuff aside, that shit is poisonous, not just to the environment, but to us as well, and a decat piped car cant produce THAT shit no matter how badly tuned/popping hektik flames

All hail to Communism & Chair man Mao! :P

I have a decat. I run a decat to suffocate babies, rape single mothers, set fire to old people, blind and deafen as many children as I can, AND let's not forget - I'm the reason fuel prices are so high because the excess flow I actually get makes me run rich and smash more juice down. I've been stickered AND caught-out with a decat pipe by police actually sighting the pipe. Twice. I didn't receive any fines for said pipe. But it is illegal, and I am actually going to hell for it. Twice.

If I get fined or imprisoned for having it, I will cop it on the chin. Moralfags can bitch all they want. My car runs better with a decat than it will EVER run with a cat. News for you guys - every now and then, I run AVGAS. Try running avgas through a cat.

Very clever. You are definitely my hero. I think we should make you President of SAUWA. We should get you to be our spokesman on Today Tonight. You should lead a cruise to the WA Parliament to make your erudite views known to our government. I am sure they would immediately tell all cops to leave import drivers alone. In fact, I think you actually represent a generation. You have put it so well and clearly. You couldn't give a f#ck about anyone but you and take no responsibility for any of your actions. So let's recognise you for that.

All hail the chief.

Cheers.

P.S. Let me know when you reach maturity. Thanks.

P.P.S. I realise it might take a while. But I can wait.

I'm a poorkunt and can't afford a high-flow cat.

Twice.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      GTR front looks good. If you don't like it, I'll swap you a rolling shell R33 for it. Give you a fresh base to start with.

      soon I also prefer the old look. At least I have more clearance for wheels up front now.

      GTR R34 Limp Mode

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.

      GTR R34 Limp Mode

      By steven7270 · Posted

      So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
