its nearly time to start modding the 33 so i thought id see if anyone could help me achieve the best results

im gonna be fitting a 3" exhaust from turbo back so i need ideas on places that do good exhaust fittings. im also interested in keeping it quiet to attract less attention without loosing any power (if possible)

i got a cooler goin on which is all sorted

and a safc2 which i will prolly leave in the glove box for the time being. ill probably get it tuned at chiptorque...

if anything else can be done to make more with stnd turbo and safc (like fuel pump. or reg or something) please tell

also, anyone got any experience installing a new stereo themselves using stnd speakers?

thanks for your time

As to the Exhaust, Rob Bliss did my dump pipe and I bought a aftermarket exhaust from japan that was 3" stainless and pretty much a straight system including 3" cat. Some really good prices landed are on offer if you are prepared to look and wait.

i got my dump pipe through batmbl here on the forums

was excellent

chased up a secondhand gtr cooler cheap, which meant i could spend a bit more on converting the plennum to forward facing (less piping, less hassles)

got a good quiet blitz exhaust for less than 500 bux from option1 (they had plenty to choose from)

Where you going to drive it mostly? Going to do any track or mountain work?

Sounds like you have the basics covered.. and should give you around 170-200rwkw with stock turbo. After that I would look at spending money on suspension, sway bars and other handling items before going too much faster as you'll be losing it to the ground. Sort them out and you can beat many other cars which much more power :)

I Installed my own sterio I was thinking about using the stock speakers. However mine were buggered. The cones are paper and are either dead or about to be dead. I hooked my head unit up to the stock speakers and it sounded awful. Went to JB and got two sets of Pioneer 6' two ways for $98. Now it sounds 100% better with out costing too much. Ditch the stock speakers and look for some bargins on good brand speakers :uh-huh:

Got in touch with vic member INASNT he can supply whiteline for cheaper than thier website.

Got to consider sizes now, thier upgrade is 24mm front & 20 rear but they also have 27F & 22R, he can supply the 27f but only 20r.

Is it worth putting that combo on or would it affect the dynamics as it is the rear I want to tame?

:confused:

Diam

Refers to the diameter in millimeters of the Whiteline/Selbys Swaybar catalogued bar. Generally these are "touring sizes" with replacements being around 1-5mmlarger than the original. Note that "extra heavy duty" oversize diameters are also available for many applications. Some Whiteline/Selbys Swaybars are of the same diameter as original, but only when replacing an OEMhollow or tubular design with a solid Whiteline/Selbys Swaybar.

    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
    • LOL well, lucky mine doesn't have some R shit on it. Around town, it handles so much better than the R33, R33 in the wet is pretty dangerous to the untrained hoon, especially with 13kg/mm front springs.
