my r33 has an 3 inch exhaust system though with king low springs, muffler sits at about 8cm off the ground

i need to get roadworthy so i put stock springs back in & now its sitting at 10.7cm just barely legal..

iv measured the ride height from center of wheel to guard and with stock springs its 365mm which is about right

how do you guys manage to lower your car with your exhaust but still legal hieght?

iv even asked an exhaust specialist to tuck my exhaust up abit they said theres like 1cm between the muffler and diff

everything is legal when on king lows just the rear end of exhaust is the problem

how much lower from legal height at the lowest point of the exhaust?

Do you have a bolt-on brand name system or did you get a custom one made up at an exhaust shop?

lowest point is 8cm which is 2cm lower then legal height with the low king springs

i bought the skyline like this & its my first ever so no idea but ill get a photo of it tommorow

80mm in NSW and 90mm in ACT. I just did rego for my 34 at Dickson pits in ACT, guy said 90mm from lowest point. If you are worried get you exhaust adjusted/welded... around $150-200

in nsw, it's 100mm to the lowest part of the vehicle(including drive-in/suspension/fuel tank)

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
