i dont know about everyone else but we just take the catalytic converter off and ram a bar through it and knock out the catalyst... its not legal but it works and skylines run very clean even without a cat, so even if they bring out road side emmision testing it will still pass.

dude i emission tested my own vehicle, i saw the figures with my own eyes, not to mention everyone else in the workshop. i wouldn't say it if it wasnt true.. the skylines do run very clean even without a catalytic converter as long as you are running standard management your fine... its not like im going out telling people to do it that way thats just how i did it and it works for me

my exhaust guy told me if ur caught without the cat theres something like a $10,000 fine... im pretty sure thats true in melbourne.

safer to just get a hi-flow cat... dunno if its as good though as taking it out completely. but I dont wanna sell my car to pay a fine.

True. In Vic you risk a $10k fine for no cat.

There is no way in hell a catless skyline could pass emissions. Even my nose could tell you that.

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
