Hi all, I am now running atr45sat with stock dump, hks front pipe, stock cat(empty inside ) , trust pe2 catback on my gtt. Only manage to get round 350 [email protected] told me to the main issue is the dump pipe. I have a few options in my mind now, wishing to seek advise from experts here. 
1: possible to get a 3inch elbow dump (tomei/hpi) to pair up with my hks front pipe and  a xforce  hi flow cat? 
2: hks elbow dump ,hks front pipe ,xforce hi flow cat.

3:tomei/hpi elbow , with Japspeed full 3inch front pipe, xforce hi flow cat

my concern is the fact that the inlet of my hks front is 2.5 Inch, only the outlet is 3inch, if I use a 3inch elbow, will it affect the flow? (That’s why I am contemplating to get the japspeed front pipe, looks like it’s 3inch both inlet and outlet ) 

Ps:due to local authority restriction , I need to have my cat intact , and I cannot do ewg. 

any advise will be greatly appreciated

Well, it’s really a pain in the ass for car modification here. Yes I can run a cat with single piece bell mouth, but since the oem part come with elbow and a connecting front pipe, I am not allowed to change to a single piece . Therefore my options are limited , and I wish to make the best out of the limited options, so any more advise will be greatly appreciated !

Fitting a bigger turbo is somewhat in the grey zone, usually if it’s still on factory’s mounting position, you can get away with it. As for the exhaust system, they are super strict with it, we are only allowed SOME jasma approved catback . And as for front pipe, I am using hks, but I wrap it with the stock shield . I am located in Singapore .

That's our GTSBoy, doesn't just think outside the box; he cuts the box in half and puts a flange on it. Ideal way to go. 

For a real oem look, you could even weld on some brackets to the dump and bolt the stock heatshield to it....possibly.

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • 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.
