Hello im after getting some extractors for my r32 skyline na, i want to increase performance slightly without going the whole turbo conversion.

How much power gain do extractors give roughly? which are good value for money? What kind of prices?

I have an apexi n1 exhaust system on the car already, just want to add to that.

Anymore ideas? :starwars:

Im in adelaide by the way, :)

have you tryed a seach? there is a thread about extractors for a rb25de on the 1st page of the na forums. have a look on there to find a little more info

i paid 275nz dollas i think from memory for some COBY extractors

yes they are well worth the money and you will feel the difference

rb20 is pretty much the same as a rb25 for the extractor threads.

you can buy them in NZ easy as. there is a parts site that is listed in the other thread that exports extractors.

prehaps you aussies need to organise some group buy on them?

really so rb25 extractors would probably fit straight on to an rb20de? :)

if anyone has some websites or prices could they let me know? Cheers!

www.partsco.com have them for the 2 litre. Around $240 plus $100 for freight to oz. Just wish I'd heat wrapped mine b4 fitting...

haha yeah i wish i had too... live and learn i guess. the sunburn on my lower back made driving painfull for the next week or 2 haha.

hopfully when i get my custom rb30 extractors ill heat wrap them before fitting too.

hello again, i'm after getting these in adelaide can anyone recommend a good place to get them? also ...

How come some people say you should really heat wrap them?

How much/how hard is it to heatwrap them, is there really a benefit in doing this?

Thanks!! :P

heat wraping helps keep some more heat outa your engine bay. um you heat wrap them yourself. i paid $50 for like 50'x1" of it.

i have heard people say do and some people dont. my new extractors arnt heatwrapped as the exhuast guy who i know well said dont do it as the heat gets held in the metal longer and they become brittle or somthing.

you can always get them heat coated.

you could get some custom extractors made up? mine cost me $650 all up as i got them to do some other work on the car as well.

hey mate - seriously no one can answer all your questions exactly, best way is to do some homework and make some phone calls.

rb25de extractors should fit an rb20de

as some people above have stated, there are possible pros and cons in heatwrapping extractors - that is entirely up to you.

partsco sell extractors - but if you want a price you are better off calling them or emailing and asking for a quote. (coby, hurricane, fujitsibo, there's quite a few brands out there)

you can also make custom extractors (muffler shop should be able to do it) - probably using your original flanges, and again the amount of power it adds can be anything, because they are custom.

i think you're looking at this whole "extractors how much power do they give?" a little one dimensionally. from what i have read and what other people have told me, extractors give allow better breathing and flow of exhaust gases.

you may/may not see much change in any max power (or dyno power read out). instead you might find a more drivable and chunkier/fatter mid range. there is no rule of thumb as to how much more max power you will get, but i would hazard a guess at ~5-10kw

eug

Cool thanks that's answered all of my questions actually, and yeah im going to make a few phone calls but i'm just wondering if ordering interstate will be a good idea rather than local. Most people say coby are the best, so perhaps i might go for them unless anyone has another brand they know are great as well?

cheers

    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
