The bonnet is shut. :P

Haha

But it does stand out and makes it look even bigger.

I am tempted to get it done locally, going to see another mob tomorrow and see what they have to say, should at least be interesting :)

Go twin 3"

Exhaust sits higher (avoids defects), flows better however its more expensive and heavier

It's a single, not low mount twins. Lol

I'm sure a 3.5 or 4 inch will be more than enough.

Hi Pete can't believe the things I've read and seen mate UNBELIEVABLE! I really feel sorry for you :(

Have you had an explanation on why they made such a tiny exhaust?

IF you are coming to Sydney again id gladly knock you up something REAL nice. I can shoot you some pics of my work if you're interested ;)

Thats a great offer, love to see some pics of your work, How long does it take to do something like that. I would have to get the down pipe and Cat sorted before I give it to the builder or get them to do it before they can really fix the farked tune , thanks for the offer, I do not know what to do at the moment :/

My problem is I am a single Dad and have no other family here where I live and the kids have to go to school etc. When I drive down and if it is going to take longer than a day or 2 at the most, I have to fly back. So each of these trips cost me about $800 return.

This is why I try and get everything done at the same place at the same time, seems it is not working out real good,haha

I feel the build is so close to being finished but with a lot of nagging problems that need fixing and the builder has to fix the ones that I feel are his responsibility and I need to give them a chance to sort this shit out.

Mick_O , no one explains anything because I think it could be like admitting that they caused a problem, no one in business likes to give themselves up and take responsibility for a fault and they try to dodge the bullet :)

If it's still losing water and it's not obvious where from, it'll probably be staying with them more than one day.

Sure will, just hope that is an easy one to find or it could get ugly.

I will drop it off and if they think they can do it in 2 or 3 days I might be able to have the girls looked after and stay in Sydney until it is done , but I do not like using people up with this type of thing as there can be more important reasons for asking for a favour.

Disable the car and chuck it on the back of a transport truck and deliver it to them. Job done and no favours asked.

Haha, you jest !

Do it that way and it would be tucked down the back somewhere until " they had time to look at it "

I will wait until they have the time and then give it to them :)

    • LOL.... a good amount of people (not all) on that continent seem to know everything and like to measure things in bananas, football fields, statue of liberties instead of the metric system lol.
    • I assume the modules are similar enough, so if you've had no issues I don't see why I would. I have tried to find a wiring diagram for the FPCM / fuel pump circuit, but I can't find it anywhere. Otherwise, I would just do some wire cutting and joining at the FPCM and give the 12 V supplied to the FPCM directly to the pump instead. If you know anyone that could help with wiring diagrams, I'd be very happy  
    • If it dies, then bypass. The task isn't difficult. I have one running on a standard R32 FPCM. That's after nearly 20 years of it running an 040, which pull substantially more current than the Walbro. They're not the same module, but I'd hope it indicates that the R33 one should be man enough for the job. I think people kill them when putting proper sized pumps on them, not these little toy pumps we're talking about here.
    • Silicone spray won't hurt anything. And if it does, that's an opportunity to put some solid steel spherical bushings in, so you can really learn what suspension noise sounds like, If you're going to try it, just spray one bush at a time, so you can work out which one is actually noisy. My best guess is that if the noise started only since putting the coilovers in, then it is just noise being transmitted up through the top mounts of the struts, and not necessarily "new" noise from bushes. But it's almost impossible to know.
    • Are you saying the 34 is SUV height, and not that we're talking about an SUV here? (because if we're talking about an SUV, you don't fix them. You just replace them when something breaks. Not worth establishing sufficient emotional connection with an SUV to warrant doing any work on one). I wouldn't jack my car up on a short little loop of 10mm steel rod poking out through a hole in the bumper bar, front or rear end. I realise that we're probably not talking about that type of loop at the front, being the one under/behind the bar on a Skyline.... but even for that one, trying to jack up on what amounts to a thin piece of steel, designed purely for withstanding a horizontal tension force, not a vertical compressive force (and so would be prone to buckling/crushing) and, my most particular bitch about it - located RIGHT AT THE EXTREME FRONT OF THE CAR, applying a load up through the radiator support panel, etc, with almost the entire mass of the car cantilevered between there and the rear wheels? Nope. Not doing that. Not on the regular. That structure out there in front of the front crossmember is not designed to carry load in the vertical direction. Not really designed to carry any load at all, really. The chassis rail that the tow point is connected to would be fine loaded in tension, as per towing. Not intended to carry the mass of the whole car, especially loaded all on one rail, with twisting and all sorts of shitty load distribution going on. No, I will happily drive up on some pieces of wood, thanks. That can only happen on driven wheels, and they are at the other end of the car, and this problem does not exist at that end of the car. And even then, I have been known to drive up on at least 1x piece of 2x8 each side at the rear, simply to reduce the amount of jack pumping necessary to get the car up high enough for the jack stands. What really really shits me about Skylines is the lack of decent places for chassis stands at either end of the car. You'd think they'd be designed into the crossmembers.
