hey,

Finally my car is making some progress. After the gearbox dilema, i have got most of the stuff sorted. And a big spending spree planned to buy and get all work done this week. pump, tailshaft, radiator, thermos.

Next weekend with everything in and ready to go, except the exhaust, is it ok to drive it around straight off the dump pipe?

I dont have a front pipe to connect to the rest of the exhaust.

And the engine mounts are going to be modded where i am getting the cooler piping, and new dump/front made up, so i will have to go with no bonnet either. And just run the stock cooler to the place. (its through back streets so i guess it should be ok, for no cops to pull me over.

But the place i got to take the car to is like 10 minutes away, anyway, and getting it towed is just not worth it. Seeing as i can drive it anyways.

But yeah, driving off the dump pipe that doesn't harm anything does it?

just freakn noisey yeah.

i am getting worries about the big i will cop if i do get busted. so i might just bolt up half a vl exhaust with a cat.

and run the standard silvia exhaust, so it still looks like i got a zorst. although i will be taking it round the block, just because.

got to find some stock cooler piping now.

so i can do so.

damn it

      And 90% of the time those people turn out to be wrong anyway. But they still treat themselves as a victim...

      I used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it

      Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare.

      R32 gtst speedo out by 10kph

      Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.

      Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
