Few N00B Questions

Hi all,

Recently picked up a 2012 GTR.

I'll keep it short:

1: Will exhaust/air intake modification void warranty?

2: If not, then can I please have some suggestions as to exhaust and air intake. Some indicative pricing would also be great.

Thanks,

Ali.

1st suggested mod is to change the (very heavy) std midpipe to a titanium one. This will increase the exhaust volume and free up some extra HP.

The warranty situation with this mod should be ok. Some cars (mine included) have thrown codes with just this alone tho.

Sold it quite some time ago!

R35 and M3 atm....

How's the GTR going? I really miss the raw feeling of an R32. Every now and then I see a clean example on the road....

E93.

Yeah I might just swing past there when I get a chance, depending on what chasers say. Just after the basics, as pretty happy with the stock performance.

    • Both of those things are on my to do but not quite in a position to do that just yet until I can at least get it running back to stock. Going to work on getting the exhaust manifold gasket and studs replaced first, an obvious need it now. Then I'll try out the new maf and see hownthat does. After that I'm thinking cas if I'm still having the same issues. Still need to run the fuel out and refuel I'll change the fuel filter tomorrow along with cleaning the iacv with carb cleaner. If all else fails I'm going to get a serial port and see if I can get some sort of data on what the ecu is seeing when the issue is happening but really hoping one of the methods above work out first. After I get a good base I'm going link but have to save for that so it'll be a while for that based on my tuners suggestions. Definitely need the exhaust leak fixed first though car has always fallen flat after about 4-4500 rpm since I've had it and suspecting that's the issue. Then I can move forward with the rest. 
    • My vote is rebuild s2 engine or maybe get a neo (but expect you may need to rebuild that too). Doing an engine conversion you would have to be a true tragic nowadays and actively be aware there's better/smarter options for value.
    • Or buy one someone built earlier! (realistically V8 mustangs or MKV supras are great). I see people nowadays putting ZF8's into MK4's, and people putting 370z gearboxes, diffs, axles into R and S chassis and it's like.... just get a 370z at that point and mildly boost the 3.7 instead of the 2L and away we go...
    • If you're going to go v8 or really any swap now with all the tax, I'd most likely just get rid of the car and start with something else. Unfortunately, I have a mate with a surplus of ls and Ferrari/Maserati v8's that's always tempting me FFS lol.
    • If you can get a clean, tested neo from Japan for $3500 these days, it's probably worth getting either way, hard not to be skeptical at that price. Otherwise probably rebuild the s2.
