Hype and others: pricing for the cat back systems will be determined shortly.

All I can say right now is Hi Tech deserve some big ass thanks! Pete at the Lewisham shop worked tirelessly from 7:30am yesterday morning through till 8pm trialling and making up a selection of systems with differing rear mufflers (he put all other work basically on hold), all using a large resonator to keep em quiet (ish). The dump pipe should come up quite nicely.

Long and short they have put in many many hours to develop these parts of us all.....very impressive stuff.

The slight angle muffler with 5 inch tip looks cool.. had one on my car to test....

unfortunately no photos as yet.... they are all off to the factory on monday and you will all know as soon as the first batch arrives....

Cheers

Nick

Hype : I strongly advise a resonator unless you have some points left on your license that you dont mind loosing :uh-huh:

The car will still sound good... but not as loud as most..

I am happy to be organising this.... its a time consuming thing but its great to see it working out. Without the patience of those on the forum who want these parts and the dedication of Hi tech in development it wouldnt go ahead.

I just want the system on my car.... after all... its very shiny!:P

hmm... good point BY BY..

i think id better get a resinator too..

but will it restrict the exhaust system at all??

and will it still sound good?

any ideas on how much extra the resinator will be? (im assuming its not included in the 700$ turbo to cat system..

you guys know that if you turbo upgrade then you new dump pipe generally wont fit on a hgher hp turbo cause they come with dumps to match the original engine pipe.

just a thought

anyways i have 350-400hp garret turbo with custom dump anh nizmo engine pipe (stainless) all yours for 800 bucks exchange(selling car dont need it), f*k ill even give ya the $400 7 litre cat if you want to pay for the removal, turbo and cat have beeen on for 7 mmonths

first in best dressed(sold to a nice home)externally venting BOV owners need not apply lol

syndey only please

I've got a cat back Super drager and had another straight thru muffler fitted to it near the rear diff. b/c i found it a bit loud. Now it's perfect and I wanted to get the front/dump and cat done but I don't wanna make it louder, what sort of effect will it have???

I already have a 3" stainless steel cat back exhaust on my r33, I am just wondering how much louder it will make the exhaust note with the new dump/front pipe and hi-flow cat.

Should I consider getting a resonator fitted? My exhaust is really quiet at the moment, not loud at all. So does a wider pipe from turbo back make it louder ? :rolleyes:

Any help would be appreciated as I am seriously considering getting this exhaust group buy thing done.. :mad:

Ta,

Darky.

Hey Guys,

I have another quick question :mad:

Im wanting a extremely loud exhuast for my skyline i was wondering if you could tell me which one would be best for me. Im sure you know the note that im after, not ricey but its just the sound you here when the boost comes in and you just know its a skyline.

3" mandrell bent with a 5" Tip, how would that sond ? And also when ppl say that does these include a sports exhaust.

If you would happen to know a site that would answer all these sorts of newbie questions i would be greatly appreicated.

Bucket: any good 3 inch exhaust with decent muffler and NO resonator will give you a damn loud and sexy note.

Depends what you want.

If you are in sydney loud isnt a good idea

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
