This Is The New Recipe Chat Thread...

I really need a hoist.

My old full 3 inch system will be up for grabs if anyone wants it. I will get some pics up in the Stagea for sale thread when I get some time...

[Jetwreck]

I finished the new exhaust today, thanks Cam for helping.

I managed to keep the pipe as straight as possible given the tight space to work with. 3.5 inch dump (flattened for clearance) into 100cpsi cat and 3 inch front pipe. The rest of the system is Cam's old 3 inch one, Legalis is it? It still sounds louder than I want... The price you pay for a performance exhaust I guess.

Have yet to drive it so I will let you know my thoughts tomorrow, I will also have to get back on the dyno and tune for this and the boost controller so hopefully good gains.

NICE!!!

Lol, If you buy the old system wont you be jealous when your brother rips one of the new dumps out?

I can make more of them but you can only imagine how much time that many welds takes. I haven't priced them up but they wont be cheap... Also, they are a bitch to fit. What's your tool selection like? It could be worth a trip down.

[bLaQ.bOi]

nice exhaust, good that you gave it a go yourself dude... rather than paying a pro to do it...

the welds are okay for a beginner...

did you really have to "flatten" the front for clearance? liek the 3inch wouldnt fit at all?

interesting concept, although i will be doing mine a little differently.

but seriosuly kudos for doing it yourself, love your style

when i finally decide to do mine. which shouldnt be too long away...

i only got my car friday and its not complied yet lol

ill be able to make more for anyone who wants one... and i wont be charging much, if anything at all...

ive made 3 or 4 custom intercooler kits for ppl when i was in the drift scene. and i only charged like 50 bucks labour. and they had to pay for material. (trying to help ppl out)

where i work we make huge ginormous tanks and vessels. for CSL (who make the drugs and vaccines for everyone) and food tanks... so all we do is bust our ass, and then the truck comes and picks it up.

and thats it. we dont ever get to see the customers reaction... so because when i do stuff for peoples cars. i get to see thier reaction i almost feel bad charging them lol

Anytime mate.

Still louder? How does the Mrs feel about the sound & volume?

How did it sound when warm (it is a bit loud when cold - as is the Nismo exhaust for that matter)

[Jetwreck]

started getting the car ready for some more mods and a full service yesterday.

[richzx]

Mods? Do tell!

[Tangles]

I need a hoist, 200cm tall, no knees and car work = not much fun

Its almost silent at idle and cruise but as I get on the gas it becomes much louder, old system was the other way around.

I had to lower the boost back to stock for now as its running leaner again. I have booked some dyno time for Thursday.

Mrs likes it.

Mike your stag looks freakin mad man!!
