went to exhaust place today to get some pipe for intake, they noticed i had a factory system still on (is factory but decat with varex copy twin tip) but because he recognized my old man (did exhaust for his merc) he asked me if I wanted to get a full 3" turbo back system with hi-flow cat made up and installed for $1k as "mates rates". This good deal? :laugh:

lol mates rates...my turbo back 3" was $600 with me supplying the cat and varex end muffler. Mild steel with mandrel bends. Don't bother with stainless it looks like ass after a year anyway and mild steel sounds better :P

It wont work with larger injectors.

You'll need to configure them within the PFC at a bare minimum regardless, or it will just over fuel and stall, it might not even idle.

This Birdy. It's a piece of piss to do, should be in Paul's faq

really? how does surface rust look better :P

fml. did Rev210's 5min $5 intake pipe mod and i just took my car for a little drive and it drove like shit. held boost fine but didnt go. before mod it went fine. HELP!!!!!

took off ic piping from turbo and return flow to get better access to rubber induction pipe, unplugged and took out afm and pod, cut induction pipe and inserted 3inch diameter/12cm long mild steel pipe, placed piece of pipe that was cut off back on and both side are secured with metal hose clamps, plugged in and insterted afm and pod back on, put ic piping back on.

Just some extra info: battery was disconnected when this was undertaken, Rev210 says to remove whole induction pipe but i left it in because the clamp for the plumb back recirc pipe was impossible to get off so i cut it while it was in the engine bay.

**EDIT**

Link to Rev210's guide.

    • 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.
