i got my catback friday arvo

95mm/3.74" hks catback,

looks very nice and sounds mean, nice and loud

cat needs flanges modified to bolt up to the system, so for now im driving around with a '3" race pipe' gonna get cat modded asap as it's asking for trouble atm. also the exhaust temp sensor had to be cut :( because it was welded into the f**king cat, grr... you guys out there still got your temp sensors?, i heard i don't really need it anyway. i found a big difference in response now, car just wants to rev and pulls a lot better throughout the rev range. can't wait to upgrade the front section. damn without this cat the fumes are horrible, can smell them wafting into the car when the car is idling at the lights with the windows down. Adrian, i reakon you should beat out the cat and get pipe through your cat so it at least looks like you've got one from the outside :) anyway i'm stoked with my new exhaust :)

Chris.

my folks sent me down to bunnings bah but if i do that i get out of stripping wallpaper - anyway on the way back home i got talking to a real cutie mmmmm just as things got interesting lights go bloody green haha oh well :(

it was on the way back he pulled up beside me at the lights well his mate did (i had been to bunnings i dont think they had been there) it was a ute and i saw them like itching forward etc so they could look at my car - and i usually kinda ignore guys like that because a huge percentage of them are idiots but this guy wound down his window and started talking to me and im look mmmmmmmm nice. Yeah but he was passenger. I ws going to do the trick give him my number and if he can remember it then give me a call and i'll take him for a spin but i ran out of time :(

Hows your weekend been Liz?

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
