  1. Got a few I'll do 4 per post, not sure if there's a limit
  2. Get wireless coilpacks
  3. is this a PranK?
  4. Nice R33, always been a fan of the R33 GTR's shape Welcome to the forum!
  5. Saw that carbon fibre front end at the GT-R Festival today... jaw dropping in person. If anyone has a nismo fashion lighter I'd love to buy one (pref red) PM
  6. Slim chance the original was legit anyway? There are people who can adjust your new cluster, I can't say I've had it done before but it can be done, I'm almost sure there's a thread on either this forum or another. All in all, if you want to go the legit way, tell the RMS and ask for their advice
  7. Hooooly shit... Hahahaha
  8. Certainly interested in results I guess.. I just find it hard to get excited when Hypergear is pumping out turbo after turbo for us
  9. I KNEW that R33 was familiar!!! I was telling my mates, "i know that car, i know that car!! he has a website!!!" they thought i was going crazy lol Cool pic man, thanks!
  10. hahaha not for a long time. trying to avoid any police attention at all after my EPA adventures..
  11. Thanks guys! One day when I don't have an ECU which needs an AFM i will have a massive dose pipe just for you
  12. Complete and utter lack of dose pipe has got me worried
  13. West head
  14. Took the R34 for a west head run nice and early this morning
  15. Thanks I wasn't 100% sure as i've seen a lot of GTT's with the fake extended leg wings on and they look pretty average but turns out with the standard height they don't look too bad!
  16. A while back i posted a big upgarage box, well i feel it's time to show you what's inside! Genuine R34 GTR wing with NISMO Carbon Fibre spoiler blade! I got the wing and the blade for less than the blade brand new which i was very happy about. Carbon Goodness Sent it off to get painted by a mate's shop, this took a while as it was a cashie but that was no problem. Very happy with how it turned out Keen to get out for a drive on the weekend and get some proper photos! What's next on the car you may ask! Brake pads, disks, and lines with fresh fluid is up next, currently the brakes are flogged out and need replacing so I'm just going to do the whole lot at once and while I'm there ill slap in a HICAS lock bar, surely that doesn't need explaining
  17. Here we go lol Edit GTT stock wheels are also 17''? Also unsure how this is relevant lol
  18. RB25 engine RB25 pump 0 HICAS ??
  19. OEM also wasn't 3" from the turbo back hah
  20. That's a great idea, unfortunately I'm only running a Apexi SAFC on a stock computer.. I know it's a dinosaur!! but for a stock car it's fine for now
  21. It's a real shame exhaust valves are illegal really, I watched a guy with a varex get his ass handed to him by the EPA right next to me... Thanks for the tips though, coke can gasket oh boyyy love it!
  22. "over-run" that's the term I was looking for, cheers! When I'm next with my car ill take some pics of the mufflers that are there, I know the question kinda left you all in the dark but appreciate the help so far I had a 3" mild steel system on my R32 which was great which had 2 straight through mufflers which came out to a 3" tip but im almost sure the kakimoto would be the same, the only difference being that this system is stainless.. If i was to get a mild steel system do you think the over-run sound levels would drop at all? I know stainless is certainly more raspy but how does that translate to db. Sorry for all the questions lol
  23. Hi all Long story short I got pulled over and police escorted to an RTA Inspection / defect station as well as having my car tested for noise by the EPA on Friday night. While this may sound incredibly scary to some, I made it through the RTA inspection / defect station without any issues and they were actually quite nice and in the words of both the 4 highway patrol officers who were looking all over the car as well as the 2 RTA inspectors they said "Mate this is a mechanically great car, there's nothing wrong with it at all and it shows that you know what you're doing and that you care" which I will take as a compliment! After that lovely ordeal I was directed to take my car to the EPA man who did the exhaust noise test, he was actually a really nice guy and explained the law/rules/bullshit that governs the legal limit of noise a car can make. After revving my car with the microphone he explained that the legal limit was 90db, and that throughout the whole rev range my car was under the limit (hooray!) until he backed off the throttle, and each time he did this it would spike to 2db. He also took the time to run me through the rev range and let me watch the computer/device which showed a db reading and showed that every time he did it it would spike.. After a good 20 minute chat about exhausts and mufflers he decided not to fine me for exceeding the limit, however I will need to go to the EPA and have it tested again after I "fix the problem". My main question is how can I permanently stop the noise from spiking so much when the throttle is closed. I'm well aware I can bolt on a stock system and go to the EPA and pass so please don't suggest that, I'm not interested in a band aid, I want to be confident that if ever get pulled over again it will pass AND I honestly hate loud cars too.. Does anyone know of a certain muffler style which will help this, or would mild steel sections perhaps be the answer? The EPA guy also mentioned that they do not care how thick the exhaust's diameter is, nor do they care about the material it's made of, they just want you to adhere to the noise limit. I am currently running a Kakimoto 3" stainless steel system from the cat back which has 2 mufflers in it and is quite quiet until you jump off the throttle.. does anyone have any thoughts about how I can modify this system to suit my needs? Appreciate it!
