what a spew hey, hope you sort it out. chasers have a stock item im pretty sure.

u could just put a muffler on it to shut it up and quieten it down or a resonator

i wouldnt goto the effort to change dump/cat/full system etc to pass epa test

unless you really had to of course

krzysiu,

Have you taken it to an exhaust shop to get it tested yet?

I got the same letter, took my car to get it tested and it was spot on 90 dB, therefore legal....

I thought mine would fail dismally but it passed.... Get it checked for $25 bucks and then you get a document saying its right and you can keep it in the glovebox to say that the exhuast is inside regulations.

BASS OUT

Hey Bass, I got the EPA letter and it saye this on the bottom:

NOTE FEE INCREASE

The approved noise tester will charge the following

for a noise test

From 9 May 2005 - $33.75 (including GST)

From 1 July 2005 - $34.60 (including GST)

Can you also tell me the size of your exaust because i will get annoyed if i pay 35 bucks and i fail, then i have to do it again = 70bucks :) Not that much but its still some money that cat be better spent on a saturday night ;)

cheers

I have a Fujistubo Power Getter high high flow cat and Blitz front pipe, stock dump pipe.

Go to the exhaust shop, tell them you got the notice, ask them to listen to your exhuast, they will know soon enough whether it is over or not.

Ah ok, bad thing is i got some Big Jap Spec Dump pipe, and a full stainless steel 3.5 inch Turbo back Blitz system.

Thanks for the advice, ill just take it and let them have a listen.

i had the same thing with mine, was too loud so all i did was get a smaller muffler on the rear for the check, when i got home just put the cannon back on :)

this is very simple dude, and if u know that u r only a few dB's over then fill it with chicken wire

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
