That's a very tidy exhaust job. 

I like it! 

Yeah, I know I won't weld that good if I attempt to do such work haha.

When I told people my people my best mate was building the exhaust, most of them rolled their eyes. After I showed them the progress photos ive had a few of those people ask me to get a quote to build their exhausts

Superbly neat welds! 

I only wish I could weld that neatly, though that's the benefit of TIG, wayyyyyyy more control. 

I'm a MIG boy, Ha ha, and my own is nastily setup as flux core which is worse! ?

Yeah I can only use mig, but haven’t had much of chance to play with a tig maybe after a bit of practice I could actually do alright

That looks like great work. A shame that most of it is hidden away. 4 inch or 3.5?

Yeah it is but the dump will be getting ceramic coated in clear so you will still be able to see it there. It’s a 4in

That's all it is mate, practice, practice, practice. I'm only as "good" as I am as I spent 40 hours a week on a MIG for 3 months straight. And by 40 hours, that's actual time on the MIG, not just at work. 

 

And I'm not a good welder, I'm okay, not great. I have some inconsistencies. :(

TIG, just lots of hours of practice and critique. 

I'd love to have a tig to actually do some alu work, but no money to buy a decent tig setup.

Fuuark, you're young inside. I've plumbed mine back lol.. but after the cat.

Should be good seeing your face once you open up your single #twinsaregay

It’s hard to say, it’s been a long time since I heard a hks exhaust. Its a lot quieter then my old 3.5in exhaust and easily quieter then most jasma exhausts

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
