That kind of stuff is so easy for an exhaust shop to make up. for the price your better off getting it here.

Yeah - $445 Aus delivered. And I guess the complication is it doesn't just bolt into your system like the dump at the start of this Post. So keep me on the list for one please.

I am preparing for the install with a kitchen grater and knuckles in close proximity. Everyone has forgotten to mention goggles to keep all the crap out of your eyes but fog up so you can't see so you take them off and get crap in your eyes so you can't see. All lying on your back!

Think leaving it to xmass time in 40 degree plus should make it more fun as well. Can't wait! :D

Anyone know if this sale item is a replacement of the standard dump pipe and part of the standard front pipe that attaches to it?

it is a replacement for the section straight after the dump pipe. The left side of the image is front of them pipe and the reduced end is toward the back.

Cheers

Andy

It looks like it could be.

The problem that I can see here is, pipe dia. off the dump is 2.5" so you're not getting the best possible flow, and you will also need to cut it and fit a cat about halfway along that pipe if you don't want to get a fine.

Add to that, I would recommend a flex bellows off the flange before the bend. By the time you have this delivered to Aus, modify it to suit, you would've been able to have a custom pipe made EXACTLY how you want for the same dollars.

Nah, it is a Kakimoto front pipe (de-cat) as Andy said and is between the end of the dump and the start of the "cat-back".

Also, as someone who had one on my car, I can tell you that the pic in the auction is not accurate.

Also, from the dump pipe flange, is has about 10mm where the pipe is 76mm, then it flares out to 80mm the rest of the way.

I had confusion!

So photo attached, I hope, for clarity.

Part 9 - Dump Pipe which has cat in it?

Part 16 - Front pipe with another small cat in it?

Part 5 - Big Cat with some pipe after it.

Part 2 - Muffler

So the original sale pic I put up shows a substitue for the standard front pipe with no little cat (is that a kitten?)?

The standard system has 3 cats in it. We get rid of the first one with the custom dump and that is not real obvious to inspections?

What do most do about the small one in the front pipe?

"Cat back" systems replace all of Part 5 and 2 and may or may not have a cat in them?

Have I finally got it right?

No rude comments about how slow I is fangyou!

Mostly right.

Standard system has TWO cats in it.

9 = Dump and has a small cat in it

16 = front pipe with normal low-flowing cat

5 = resonator - only there to keep the dB level down (no cat, but don't tell Nispro :()

2 = muffler (no cat, but again, don't tell Nispro :) )

Just replace the one in the front pipe when you go to a 3" exhaust (just get a high flowing cat off ebay :))

And yes, aftermarket cat-back systems replace 5 and 2

Thanks iamhe77 and scotty n35. Bit of misinfo early on got me confused - now sorted on what is what and the replacement options. Haven't played with cars much for last 20 yrs and even then they weren't new ones so few bits have changed just a little!

I also got confused with this as my compliance paperwork said that 3 replacement cats had been fitted...

I now reckon that this was Ben just getting his PM35 compliance paperwork sorted out... :)

Got my old mate to pick up the flanges today, they look the goods!!

i am at tafe full time at the moment for 10 weeks.. so this will be a weekend job! we're going to get stuck into it very soon tho!

Nice! The world needs more of these dumps, they kick arse! :)

Old Gregg, where did you get that diagram? I want to see more info like that! :rofl:

Cut that diagram out of one section of the manual. It only has the diagrams most of the text is gobbledygook. Downloaded it from some where on this site - I think - have been looking and can not find it again. Hate the search function for this otherwise great site!

Can anyone else tell Sage 222 where the manual is please.

If no response PM with email and I will send - from work of course. Biggest section is 5.29Mb. most 1Mb and smaller.

G'day Angus, where do we stand with this? Are you still on track for pre Christmas delivery or is maybe becoming a New Years' resolution?

Cheers, Leon.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
