Well so today i had a day off work, as my son is sick, and somone had to look after him.

For some time now i have had my Flyen 3" dump sitting on the floor looking at me.

So today i decided to fit in on, and well it was easy, but i guess having all the tools i have helpes, allthough i did have to cut a 13mm spaner in 2 so that i culd get to a bolt at the back with a small bar on it.

All the bolts were soaked in WD40 for about 20 minuts, then one buy one, they came off, non snaped.

I removed the old pipe and then put on the new one, all fitted up no probs, nice and clean.

I also found that my car had a brand new CATCO or something like that high flow cat, so i decided to keep it and not gut it. The new pipe sounds heaps better, there is a lot more noise of the turbo out the exhaust and it picks up heaps more, also my boost, being stock at 7 psi, is now about 8.2psi.

The overall response is heaps better, and the car pulls harder. I love it.

PS. for anyone doing this, your car is not on fire, it;s just a tin of WD40 burning off. LOL.

NOw for the coller which has been on the floor for 3 weeks, and the fuel pressure reg and so on.

YEEEHHHAAAA

What has other peoples outcome in power been when changing pipes?????????

Hey Mate,

I have a S2 R33 GTS25T with a 3" catback, a pod + Boost solenoid mod "http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=42895&hl="

Check this out - its an awesome mod for stock boost settings-

I am looking for my next mod, but dont particularly want to go FMIC first. Looks like 3" hiflow cat and Dump pipe is going to be next.

How much did the dump pipe cost you and what type did u choose? I am considering a split type pipe.

Cheers,

Christian.

I have already remove the stock boost controller, but had the aftermarket one set to 7, but now it seams to have gone up.

I went for the bellmouth one from flyen performance on this forum, it is one pice from turbo to cat, and it cost $229. see them under trade sellers

If fitted up well, only catch is, one of the bolts needs to be put in the dump first and then the dump put into the turbo, as there is not much room to spin the bolt.

I love it, i need to get the cooler on a PFC and my new turbo,

WHY, because i can. LOL

well seing as he was sick, he had a big sleep, but basically, put him in the playpen and put on the wiggllleeesss, and all good, then he went to sleep and no probs.

LOL.

Got a chance to drive the car more today, and definatly made a differance to my car, more go, better response and shifted the turbo spool up time.

now to have enough time for the cooler to get installed

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      I've always approached this as, price is comparable between low temp and high temp fluid. Just put in the high temp fluid. I've not going to lose any sleep thinking about could I have saved $20 on brake fluid that is going to live in the car over the next 2 to 3 years.

      Nah, the creases were pretty large, and the sheet metal is pretty thin and hard to work out, time alone is in the hours to fix, and would probably have more bog than I would be happy with In other, more happy news, I gave MX5 Mania a call and they have a few clean boots available for $400 a peice, I've contacted Fineline and given them their contact details, I'm a idiot for not thinking of them sooner

      High temp brake fluid?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      That really depends on how hot the brakes get and how much of any heat is transferred into the fluid. That really makes it at least a vehicle specific question, and more than like a specific vehicle specific question, depending on what brakes (ie stock, bigger rotors, different calipers) or even what pads are on it. And then there's the question of cooling air. Is there plenty stock? Is there no special cooling arrangements stock? Has some/more been added? In other words, I think you have to do the experiment to obtain the data. And if you;re worried - tie on some ducting?

      High temp brake fluid?

      By PranK · Posted

      In all the track days I've done over the past few months I've only had 1 issue with braking and thats with my current EBC pads (can't remember the colour, but they're not a track pad). I don't *think* I have had issues with brake fluid getting too hot, my understanding is that when that happens you will have quite noticeable brake loss - which I haven't had.  I'm using just regular ol' Penrite Super DOT4 fluid. I use this fluid in everything and my cars always seem to stop so I see no reason to change, except ... for the 335i. I need to do a fluid flush and was thinking about my fluid of choice and wondering if I should consider using something more high temp? Its not a super fast car by any standards but I'd hate to do a flush and then find myself with no brakes when I get. to Wakefield.  I guess, my question can be summed up as "How fast do you need to be driving to need higher temp brake fluid?"  I remember high temp fluid was considered a must have back in the day when I had my GTR.

      RB25DET in GTS4 R32 conversion

      By Jason Abell · Posted

      For anyone that comes here looking for answers on what can go wrong with gts-4 to rb25detneo swap. The Gloria's awd sump is different and does not fit. The rb25neo from stagea are exactly the same sump bolt pattern and axel alignment. Castings numbers are different on Gloria's blocks and oilpans if they need to be identified.
