Hey relaks brah, my engine hasn't gone bang yet, however the motivation has.

 

You don't really have a lot more to do, do you

Just fire that puppy up and go for a cruise in the mountains or something

The sound of a RB, on boost, reverberating off walls should bring your boys back to the yard, if that doesn't stir the loins then all hope is lost.

Might do a track day next month, let's see if it goes bang then lol.

Because nothing breeds motivation more than breaking your car at the track.

For my sake, start slow

Only opened a bit currently so only minor LOLS, I tried it everywhere from 100% which brought all the bangs to the exhaust and PSSSHHH to the extreme, right down to closed with nil psshh's

Spring is wound down pretty tight, so only really vents at max boostage, under that its very minor dosage

LOLS are pretty good

Contemplating a catback or axle back.

Car sounds stock, except for turbo spooling and tyres slipping.

Conundrums:

1. Pre fab - Invidia? N2? R400?Cold start noise? 

2. Shop made - pretty much design what I want with the sound I want.

1. Pro: Would be cheap and I get to install, Con: get what I get given sound/drone wise

2. Con: Would be a bit more expensive vs the massed produced item, Pro: able to test what it sounds during the build, Con: I don't really get to install.

2. Found this axle back pic on the nets, will need to speak to my local exhaust shop, Pro: stock rear pipe and resonator, stock exhaust tips, Con: Cost???, not really any other cons that are blinding obvious.

Disclaimer: this is not a performance modification, pipe work can still be the same as now, just need to do something about the mufflers, I'm after just a little more sound.

I keep leaning towards shop built....like the pic

Hmmmmm

External gate, I can supply Turbosmart gate

LOL, yeah nah 

I had a "screamer" pipe on my 33, for about 3 days, till it got plumbed back in, it sounded like arse.

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
