Argh the lovely jap exhaust step down

Yep, so if it causes me a problem I'll be looking into getting whatever the quietest exhaust is I can without restricting flow :)

If you end up dropping in to Perth, I'll show you what a real free-flowing exhaust sounds like ;) Lol.

You can definitely get true 3" exhausts that are within legal limits. Best bet is custom though, don't go off the shelf stuff. With custom you can tell them exactly what you want and how you want it to sound, anyone who is good at what they do will be able to give you exactly that.

nice

good luck , once we fitted the poncams in mine got louder sounded awesome,cant wait for new set up to be finished so can know what it sounds like now

Yeah someone said it gets a deeper note, did you run Type A's or B's? Did it change the idle/drivability much?

What mods are you doing now?

Update -

Boost controllers is in

044 is assembled ready to go in

Haltech wiring will start tomorrow

Wide band wiring is done, need to mount the gauge.

ECA wires are run just need to mount and connect the sensor.

The boys are completing the springs and retainers install as we speak, cams will go in next

No idea... Ill get pics etc when i go get the car (Of the old springs) to show what they meant...

HKS Exhaust cam gear was added to the list today :D

Any reason behind not heat wrapping your exhaust mani?

It will be removed and HPC coated properly with the rear housing as well..... It was bolted up and forgotten about :dry: Heat wrapping that thing would take 2 years to do!

Anyway, some random updates -

They're not wasting any time with yours man, looking good.

Ask them if they wanna fly over here real quick and rebuild my head. For free.

They are getting into it man! :thumbsup:

Ill ask the question, i am sure they will want too just cus your a top bloke :P

I am pretty keen to get Chris to heat coat the 6Boob and the rear housing... And i may still get that 4" intake pipe redone in more of a factory look, i wasnt overly happy with the finish on it...

Yeah your right you need to get more stuff heat coated : )

Did u shield the ABS unit on your setup? (assuming high mount yeah??) I am

Wondering if it's going to cause me dramas or not? And the wiring loom near the manifold is probably an issue too... PS lines? Damn heat!!!

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
