NismoR34

I am guessing he scammed a higher rating when he 1st took out insurance [like me ] Or he was listed on his parents insurance during L's...maybe...

Thanks for the confirmation skyr33, yes it is the yellow striped hose! [check yr pm dude].

Thanks SteveL: I think I will go SS too, in the case of BATMBL's offerings its only $100 difference and long-term I think it represents an insignificant outlay. Skippy: now you have just swung the argument back the other way, who are you agreeing with?

so what is the advantage of stainless, apart from being stain-less and better looking? Do they withstand higher temps? Are they lighter in weight? I have heard they last longer but that is about all you hear from an exhaust shop... Just wanting to decide which is the better option before i buy too. I have heard that a lot of skylines in Japan just have mild steel aftermarket exhausts - but it may be just the cat-back section though, cant remember.

Secoh, its the same as 33 / 34 too in that case - the filter number is actually A360 and they are as common as muck! VN>VR commo is same too I believe, they are readily available throughout Victoria and I assume Oz too. Pulsar N14 / N15 and Pintara TRX are also the same...the list goes on...Nissan even sell them brand new!

nice

ok - Im not sure about the factory boost control setup on the 33 gtst but on a 34 gtt there are 2 restrictors in place, if you remove either 1 of them or both, power will drop significantly - you can feel the difference [boost gauge used to verify too]. Plumbing in a pneumatic [bleed] valve to introduce MORE restriction results in a boost increase [again boost gauge used to verify but more power is evident by feel]...Its not rocket science ~ Aussie Home Loans ZOOM magazine documented the removal of a restrictor but it applied to the GTR only which has a different setup and does cause a boost increase...when removed. Also 21st Century Performance, Julian Edgar documents this "mod".

I have heard that in VIC you are allowed 1 intake mod, so you can have a pod but it must NOT be made of foam and it must also NOT be an oiled type pod - so any brand fitting this description is ok in Victoria - this info was passed on by fellow members who have spoken directly with the authorities! btw FMIC [aftermarket] and boost increase are INTAKE mods...

hmm yes and no, ER34 GTT RB25DET Neo engine already has 280hp, this is gonna get :confused: ing lol Since the 350z is rated at 215kw, ie breaking the traditional power cap [206kw / 280ps], then I dont see why nissan couldnt do a 250-odd kw turbo model...and go for 300kw on the GTR! The trend in Japan atm seems to be atmo unfortunately though

I feel for you mate - I also lost my father due to a car crash just on 3 yrs ago this month. Try to focus on all the good memories when you're feeling down, I know its hard, I still can't believe my dad is gone... R.I.P to all of our passed loved ones. Dale.

u r33 guys pft i dunno u cant seem to think outside the "symmetrical stove-plates" you live in he he /waits for slandering lol

Definatley black

congrats dude - enjoy it [safely]

whats the difference

what sort of times did the 34gtr do? Do you remember? i have seen that punk[t] down chapel st...

...and sell the gtr cooler to me since you wont be needing it right? btw, turn your auto-focus back on

hey - it looks like u been down to a'barn: lemme guess, Simota Pod? stainless afm adaptor? cost: $80 approx :confused:

looks good nark! now just need to polish the plenum eh? good to see before and after shots too - most ppl dont seem to go to the effort... I may polish some of my engine bitz

nice - dont know if my cam cover can be done like this or not :confused: [i thought it was a typoe of plastic / carbon / etc

there is no shortage of 34's around melb that have been complianced and sold with the xenon h/lights, most import dealers dont have them changed purposely - buyer gets nicer headlights / dealer gets more money - "that doesnt make it right" of course my 2sense!

correct me if i missed something dAVE, but isnt that gonna be just like a factory setup? [factory box is fully closed].

Al, your gearing must be different to mine [r34] or something, cause mine was hitting the rev limit at 150km in 3rd gear - no way I could get to 170k / 180k. edit, oops here is my recent dyno sheet [just to stay on-topic ]
