Hi guys. My R34 has a cat back exhaust but wanna do the rest from the turbo to the cat. I can get a Venom Hi Flow cat for $250 and a Hurricane split dump pipe for $385. Just wondering if these items on ebay are well known to be either good or crap? They seem pretty good price wise but i've never looked into purchasing either items so dont know for sure (quality or price).

Anyway here's the Hi Flow cat http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/260953982573?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649#ht_3528wt_940 and here'sn the dump pipe http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/160769342824?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649#ht_713wt_821

Thanks Chris.

im getting a venom cat at some point... money pending...

i read a fair few threads recommending them so i think theyre pretty good...

their website is here http://www.venomexhaustworks.com.au/products.html

dunno about the front dump though, im considering getting a jjr one

Go for a bellmouth dump if you can, splits have too many issues and restrict flow not improve it imo.

agreed, I had a jjr split which fitted like crap and leaked due to the poor fit. They were heaps good about it though and swapped it over for a bellmouth and money back.

Bellmouth fits so much better and was about 8 times easier to put in because of that.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
