Need a Hi-Flow Cat >> where to get one @ good $??


Recommended Posts

Flying performance (www.flyn.com.au) are selling 8L High Flow Cats. I think they may even be Catco ones, on Ebay starting bid $199. I got one for $200. It's on the way. Or you can buy straight from their website for about $250.

dont expect the the rwc thing will be cut and dry, my rwc cos me $1200 and took a week to get sorted.

things to look for

tyres, any sign of wear at all

sterring wheel, if not stock

make sure the places acually knows what size rotors your brakes are supposed to have

any body damage that may have taken place during shipage, look underneath the body

robin once u have it complied i know a place where u can get a good RWC from... they dont try and rip u off like everyone else

burkey - dont worry mate.. u will learn to ignore his ranting

lol who cares... shut up denham and let him get a cat :)

dont listen to denham blackrobin... no one else does ;)

what does a radiator air guide do again nark? divert air AWAY from the radiator hey? :)

We all know that blackrobin is gonna go back to the cat that came on the car from japan after the rwc ;)

i didnt say it diverted it away u idiot... i didnt see the point as air was gonna get to it anyway.

anyway... just get a catco.

Back to square 1...

Failed my RWC today + still have no Engineering certificate also... my Registration was booked in for tomorrow. Not going well at the moment.

Driving the car with the standard feels like I got BIG MUMMA LISA is sitting in the back seat and they also chucked on a resinator about the size of 3 melways stacked on top of each other.

Inark.. I will send you a PM for the roadworthy place.... this list was given to me by RWC place to get fixed / looked at.

External wastegate

Drilled rear rotors have hairline cracks (common for drilled rotors yeh?)

Turbo Timer (easy fix)

Horn (because it was stolen by shipping co. - also easy fix)

Battery clamp (original battery went flat and could not hold a charge so bought a new one, smaller - easy fix)

Tank exhaust sheild to close to my milo tin (easy fix)

I pick the good ones don't I...

Thanks for your help and advice so far... I'm starting to hate my car and I've only driven it about 45km TOTAL.

Find out...

A. 3"

B. If you still got it, condition... pfft... I will probably gut it anyway.

    • 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.
    • 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.
