Haven't gotten round to it yet.

Work has been nuts, and i've just received my split dump pipe... I was waiting for that to come in, so that I could do the whole lot in one go.

Also have to order a new exhaust manifold gasket.... i'm sure this one is toast by now. =-]

I'll PM ya when I get it done.

Hi RANDY...

dont loose any studs or nuts or anythign else you need to put it together, nissan have already taken my arms, arse and legs for them!

10 bucks for a single nut on the t3 side and i lost 2....

Why would you go to Nissan for them? They are all made by SHL anyway, just go to a bolts + fasteners shop and pay $1.25

You should replace every stud and nut, reuse the thick washers.

yeah, I know what you mean!

This place was a goldmine once a mate put me onto them!

As long as they're high-tensile steel (8.8) I recken they should be fine.

But anyway, they ask what it is for, and then get you what you need.

I dont think they use 8.8's in an exhaust, they dont match the expansion of an alloy head real well and tend to grab.

      Most of the industry in North America either runs on Siemens or Allen Bradley. I have two redundant S7-1500's on my desk right next to me for simulation. Siemens has been losing ground though since Stuxnet, as cybersecurity is a big thing. In my line of work that is federally regulated, you must by law have a cybersecurity management program in place and its audited and inspected every so often.  I work with Emerson PLC's daily (RX3i's) and have done large biogas/refinery projects with their DCS's. Their PLC's are somewhat OK minus the way they do PLC redundancy (You have to download on both PLC's separately every time you make a change )  As for their DCS's... you'll be limited financially first before anything else stops you. Costs are exorbiant at roughly 10x what it would cost you to do with any other system (e.g AB PAC).  1990's, those suckers are brand new haha! Kraft-Heinz (An old client when I use to work for an ESP) still runs Siemens TI505 PLC's from the mid 80's. Ohh how I don't miss working with those... you could only do a certain number of online downloads until it's "Change" buffer would be full and you would then need to go offline to do a full download. There was no warning of when this was coming up and it generally would happen when you would go in at 2am to make changes before production -_-.

      Unfortunately, not only is that not the case, one of the main "Selling points" of safety over comms is they clearly state in writing that there's no need to segregate safety networks from non-safety networks. It always gets intermingled with everything else on an ICS/OT network.

      SR20 to cefiro

      By KKaplumbaa · Posted

      Hello. I have an a31 cefiro but since I am in Turkey we have a CA20S engine. I did some research. Then I found that I can swap with a ca18 but when I heard that it has the similar substructure as the s13. I thought I can swap with an sr20 because the sr20 was used with the s13. So can I easily swap the sr20 on my cefiro or is it difficult?
