put your money back in your pocket with the high flow cat, it is as they say an oxymoron. Mine is not a high flow and I saved a few $$ I only replaced my stock one cause it was knackered and I broke the flange bolts off it doing the gearbox/clutch reinstall.

What did people pay for their front pipe + dump pipe ?

The only price ive been able to get so far (confirmed it will fit on my R33 GTS-T) is $350 + $350 for a 'mines copy' from www.japanesemotorsport.com.au

That seems alittle pricey for me. It would be atleast $800 just for it all up Ouch!

Custom Exhausts is in Ozzy Park. They installed my extractors on my old car and made an absolutely stunning stainless mandrel system on my mates integra. Was a few years back though, i presume theyre under the same management.

Or you could go Speedworks in Carbon Ct. But theyre quite busy at the moment and might not have the time for custom exhaust jobs.

If you wanna go the whole hog and get the dump pipe as well, id go for something japanese. I priced a HKS one up the other day that was only $75 more expensive than i was quote for a local custom job.

Remember, 70 yen to the dollar is your friend :P

I have the Cat back and front pipe on my car, i'm looking for a dump pipe in the near future..

I'm still with standard cat also.

I've heard that not having a high-flow cat can limit the amount of boost you can run with a bleed valve??

ie. My mate got a turbosmart boost controller on his 180, and they said he needed a high-flo cat to get a full 12psi, as it's peaking at 12, then dropping to 10psi ?

Any truth in this ?

Could explain why my "home-made" jobbie that gave troy 10psi, isn't working on my car (still at 7psi)

I'm getting my high flow cat and 3" dump pipe done at MagicTune in Cannington. $520 for both, stainless steel, mandrel bends. I got a quote from a guy next door to Extreme machines, which was $500. He said he would do one pipe instead of two. I'm getting way out of my depth here, all too technical, but I went with the first quote because they are closer to home.

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
