I called two places today to get quotes on a 3" mild steel front/dump pipe and s/steel high flow cat fitted (r33 gts-t) and i got two different quotes.. $900 from mettams and $620 from carline grapnel. Any ideas why there might be such a difference in price for similar things?

Apparently the mettams cat is a pacemaker and the carline one is a magnaflow. i'm just going to go with carline obviously!!

yeah those prices do include fitting

i figure it's going to be $200 for dump pipe and $200 for high flow cat from JJR = $400 + shipping + i wouldnt have a clue how to fit it so i'd have to pay for fitting too... just be easier to get it all fitted in a shop :)

guess carline is the go, ill get a address for you of my mate where he got his front/dump and hi flow cat done

heard it was really good price. so will send u a PM once i get it.

Or you could just give me the money for the quote, ill go get the gear you want and fit it...lol... its really easy dude, ya nanna could do it eh!

Just get the front pipe and dump from jap parts plus, then get someone from here to fit it for you... shit i just lost my job, id be more than happy to fit it!

hey man

would u b abl to send me a pm of the address 2? :down:

thanx bro

I actually ended up picking up an x-force front/dump and high flow cat from Prestige exhaust in malaga, and tenagah are fitting it for me tommorow :P

how much was the front/dump and high flo cat? how much for installation?

cheers mate

cheers mate

picked up the front/dump and cat for $435 and tenagah charged me 2 hour labor for installation.

was very impressed with tenagah's price & service - highly recommended!! will def be going back there.

can definitely notice the difference in power & torque, very happy with it.

whats the address mate, my next upgrade is dump pipe an hi flow cat since i have cat back exhaust

    • Unless things that you want to do include reference to time. Simple Boolean logic is only good for digital inputs or analogues that have been thresholded into digitals. But unless you also have a timer function available (which would more ideally be located inside the program, rather than being forced to implement a timer outside the ECU and bring it in as a seperate digital for every time delay you want to implement), then you can't do some of the things that you might want to do. My PLC ladder logics are obviously littered with program blocks, because that's easier than building it all in ladder gates, but the most frequent of those program blocks is a simple timer, because you actually can't otherwise do that in ladder at all.
    • Log voltage. I'm suspecting the alternator. Or even maybe a bad earth somewhere. ie, seeing as it is rev dependent, I am thinking it is alternator dependent.
    • Yeah so N1 and any other larger than factory pump are pretty famous for pumping the sump dry...obviously we don't often get to spend 20 or 30 seconds at high rpm/full noise on the road so I'd still be suspicious that is what is happening here.
    • You are also getting pressure dips on gear shifts. They're just not dipping as far, but they're dipping quite below the amount of oil pressure you should be seeing, for how much RPM drops.   It quite little could be the oil pressure relief valve is starting to stick open a little/is slow to close.
    • Can you log battery voltage, and TPS, and put all four of those into a single image (even as split graphs)?   The oil pressure drops aren't following RPM as such. I'm intrigued if you may have a ground loop between different sensors. With the engine not running, log your sensors and for example cycle the throttle pedal. See if any sensor values flutter or move about. This won't be a perfect test either as the ECU won't be cycling all of its actuators like it would be while running. What EMTRON do you have? Do you have a link to the wiring guide for that ECU?
