haha, well considering the engine is being pulled it wont be available. Damn baffled sumps! :D. Anyway, CES fitted mine and just used 2 normal 2.5" cats and tilted them sideways to fit, not sure if this picture shows it properly though. The bar only melts when I go to the track, cause it is such a big heavy exhaust, when doing serious corners it must press against the side of the gap for the zaust. You mustn't be driving hard enough eh?? hehe, jokes :Pimp2:

LoL, i drive it hard.. jus never had a chance to take it on the tracks yet.. Have you dynoed it after you put on the zaust? i got 215kw@all4s with just the zaust and pods (stock boost). I thank the zaust for the good power. Also what dump pipes do u have? Im still using the stock dumps.

I got 197awkw on the mercury motorsport dyno with just the exhaust and a nismo panel filter(stock boost also). Still got the stock dumps for the minute, but one of the things going in atm is a pair of hks dumps to finish the exhaust. I am interested to see what, if any, difference they make.

the wastegate sound will be louder i know that much. it should also give it a diffrent tone. those stock dumps are shocking, i cant belive i had stock dumps at 300awkw. when they pulled the stock dumps off i couldnt belive how badly they reduce in size :O

CES make there own dumps, thats where i got mine from n e way. just make sure u get the HPC coated ones.

i think they were around $900

give them a call.

check out there website

the hks dumps actully go down in size at the bottom of the pipe which is STUPID !!! why o why would they do that ??? doesnt make sence,

thats why i went the CES ones they were bigger than the HKS DUMPS and arrived the same day i ordered them :O

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      Thanks, I'll shim that plug and hopefully it fixes it.  Yes still factory turbo for now, still have the misfire it's not as bad but still noticeable

      I had someone check the CU, they said it was fine but it could be buggered  I was only running around 7-10 PSI on the dual stage controller, but my boost gauge is shit house and needs replacing so I'm not getting a true reading.  Then I ran from wastegate pressure as per Turbosmart but still have the same sort of issue

      Yeah this is a thing. I've had mine setup like this for a few years now, works fine. If I dredge my memory bank, I think I had to do this after I removed my factory dash.  So you've tried it on gate pressure, I'm assuming this is the factory turbo? Did you still have misfire issues with that setup?

      Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.

      @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)
