Hey guys,

Was just wondering if anyone is able to help me install my 3" dump/front pipe on my R34 GTT?

Can give you a little money or some booze for your time.

Thanksss

i think i should have all the tools you need to get it done..stands and socket set...:) i can help .. pm me more details when you want it done to see if i can make it tht time :)

PS - Ash is right...takes too long if you drive up...someone will have to drive to ur place to get it done...much more of a time saver...otherwise around 30-60min wait depending on how much the car has been driven

Dump pipe to turbo flange has nuts, so you shouldn't have a problem with snapping studs unless your rear turbo housing is really rusted through. I did snap or thread one bolt on the dump pipe to front pipe flange...but that's nothing a hack saw can't fix! Get the gaskets from Nissan...don't get cheap eBay shit unless it's genuine, they DON'T WORK.

you never heard of an exhaust shop mate, they have things called hoists that lift cars up and make jobs like this really easy, shouldnt cost more than 50 bucks.

$50 to get a dump pipe swapped?

Tell me where! They cannot be making money on that. I'd cost at LEAST $200

It has both actually. In the 6-7 I have done (21U) they generally have 2 studs at the bottom with nuts, the other 4 are bolts.

Charles this is a piece of piss and a pain in the ass at the same time. Realistically it is a 1 beer job, maybe 2 if you still have all the heat shielding and shit installed.

WD40 the nuts/bolts up heaps. Let it sit for at least 10 mins, then hit em again.

Then try to crack them one by one, once cracked roll them backward and forward 1/4 turn. If they are still tight keep rolling then backward and forward, if they are loose and coming out just undo them all the way. If they are tight and you don't roll them back and forward you risk snapping them. Dance a jig and stand on your head drinking water also helps.. :|

The bottom and top ones are a piece of piss, the two in the middle can be hard to get at.

You will need a new one of these. Andy should be able to get them for you in singles without the rest of the kit.

      Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.

      I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.

      From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.

      They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
