Found a large 3" in/out cat converter on ebay for $103usd delivered

Random Technology 7000-series

said to flow at around 617cfm

round, with a metal matrix inside similar to metalcat, etc

http://www.randomtechnology.com

anyone used one before, or heard of them?

Im hoping this will account and fix the boost pressure drop Ive still got. 1 bar down to 12psi, even with a free flow muffler and hks heavy duty actuator. pretty sure the basic hiflow cat Ive got is only a 200-250cfm item

In your opinions, this'd fix the boost drop right?

Just jap 3" dump, big arsed cat, Kakimoto racing GTR muffler

Will weld on, and retune the ecu mapped chip via the safc, sitc and fuel pressure regulator. Tuner yesterday said get rid of the boost drop and easy 200kw tune, no probs.

Hopefully...............

Does it matter? All they do is use a temp gauge to make sure its hotter than the actual exhaust if they check, BTW Im pretty sure US regulations are alot harder than ours. I think its more focused towards safety though.

Had it welded on today to the cat-sensor & flanges.

so much more free-flowing, the turbo spools up and just pulls harder

even off boost the engine is more responsive, hence when it comes on, oh yeah ..... !

free-reving, on rpm die down the exhaust pops and crackles beautifully !!!

very happy

:D

now to touch up the safc/sitc for the remapped ecu from Toshi, and the Stagea will be sweet - easy 200awkw

:banana:

Ha safety!!!

Their laws are strictly emissions

you can drive around in a car without doors, fenders, on space saver tyres, with no windows etc as long as you pass emissions!

i have some crazy photos of cars i've seen over there with hardly a panel on them! no boot no bonnet something resembling a door, but it had its sticker to say it was emissions passed!

    • It is not a dual mass flywheel, so you will get some gear noise on a BNR34 unless you deviate from the OEM fluid spec and run a thick gear oil like what Nismo recommended for a while. Unfortunately I have never weighed the flywheel by itself prior to installation but it is not that light. It's probably an 8-9 kg flywheel. OEM BNR34 dual mass flywheel is like 14 kg which is kind of hilariously heavy. 
    • Got around to installing the Tomei Cam Cap Studs and the Hypertune cam baffles/splash guards. Unfortunately, I was not aware that the cam cap studs do not clear the stock RB25 internal cam cover baffles. Some research found a set from boostdoc which includes a replacement cam cover baffle and full length cam baffle + tools and fasteners. but I'm not keen on re-buying what I have already bought. So the plan is to take the hard route and modify the existing cam cover baffles to clear both the cam cap studs and the hypertune cam baffle plate. I assume there must be people who have gone through this even just to convert from cam cap bolts to cam cap studs? If so any tips would be appreciated. Otherwise I think I will mark where the cam cap studs foul, drill clearance holes in the cam cover baffle, and remove the cam cover baffle oil returns to clear the  hypertune baffle plate. I will also need to remove the baffle and drill and tap threads to bolt it back on so i can clean out any swarf. Fuel tank foam as extra cam cover baffling?
    • The incoming weather event seems to be affecting people in weird ways....🤣 And no, whilst there is some fancy engineering going on, I have no real interest in anything rotary really I had a Capella in the 90's, the rotary engine is way to temperamental, and extremely thirsty for my liking  If I won lotto and wanted to waste a ton of cash, a boosted K-swap would be what I would look at, until then, the N/A MZR2.5 will be at home in the engine bay of the NC A build like this, just without the idiotic street pulls and skids would be interesting to waste a huge amount of money on https://youtu.be/EgqAoVtUD1E?si=n3_umivrUPP8C9Cs
    • Now we're getting somewhere. All we need is a fractional rotor system so we can also have the RX3 and 5 back, and the world will be right again.
    • With that engine being a one rotor, would that make this into an RX4?
