Hi guys,

I'm after a stock dump off an m35, hopefully someone who has upgraded to a Scotty-spec or the like has their old one lying around and doesn't mind parting with it. Let me know if you've got one! Thanks a lot.

Well Josh, it sounds stupid and it probably is but here's the deal:

I'm looking for a stock dump so i can try smash out the cat convertor and swap it with my stock dump. Not because i wanna be hectic sick and go hard and loud, but actually because i need to install a wideband o2 sensor before the first cat. I can't put it in stock o2 location because it's too close to the turbo and will get damaged from the heat. Needs to be further downstream.

At this point you might be saying "so fit a Scotty dump pipe and plumb in your sensor just behind that...car will go hectic sick fast & loud and you have o2 sorted"

You'd be 100% correct. This is where it gets stupid, I'm about to install + tune an Fcon V pro on the stock setup. I've got a 3071r that will be going on once i finish buying all the other supporting mods i'll need to make it all happen (more than likely this will take aaaages) So that'll have a custom dump once it goes on and as it's V-band rear, there'd be no use for a factory style dump pipe.

So basically to save some cash for now and get car running on the f-con, i need a cat-less stock dump to make it possible.

Pretty stupid? Maybe...

Even possible? Not sure...but if i can get a spare pipe i'll have a crack

Thats my amazing story, thanks for reading :)

I can't put it in stock o2 location because it's too close to the turbo and will get damaged from the heat. Needs to be further downstream.

You can run it in the factory location if you put a screw in o2 cooler under it. There should be enough room...

You would need to select the narrowband output and plug it back into the factory loom, otherwise closed loop economy will be all over the place.

Yeah thanks Scotty,

I wanted to keep the factory o2 there anyway to avoid those issues, I'd feel better just having it at the start of the midpipe.

You mentioned maybe selling your setup to me before but I thought you were waiting till the Evo was back on the road?

Have you fitted the new turbo and built a new setup to suit it already?

No, not yet. But I can rip it all out if you are interested and just make some new parts up for myself. Not sure when the evo will be on the road, the mech building the engine is being slack.

Ah I see...we'll I'm pretty strapped for cash at the moment but can you pm me a list of what you'd sell and how much?

The only prob I'd have using your old stuff is that the rear housings are different, so the wastegate section and flange part won't work. I haven't gotten deep enough into the job yet to see if I can force the t3 rear in there somehow, and if that'll mean all pipe work will be slightly different to your setup.

HKS couldn't manage to fit the T3 flange, and I know I couldn't, there just isn't room. You would have trouble enough fitting my kit, it's very tight under there.

So pretty much I'm going to have to sell the t3 rear and get a dual v-band. Yeah... That'll have to wait a while I reckon. For now just want to get the car running on the fcon.

I'll see if Pac will give me a trade with cash adjustment, I could have chose the v inlet when I bought the turbo but I didn't look into your one enough. It's still in box so I reckon they will help me out.

    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
    • the top black section is bonded to the silver section with some form of rubber. I assume to isolated NVH from the box
