a bit off topic, but can i ask why you turbo guys always talk about getting a turbo back exhaust or cat back, why not go the whole hog and get a set of extractors fitted. surely this would improve flow and shorten spool up time. i have also noticed that very few of you replace internals such as cams and was wondering why when you consider the expense of normal mods that are done.

hmm extractors on a turbo car?? how do u expect the turbo to work?

u could get a better flowing exhaust manifold for the turbine inlet thats about all.

i don't know myself how i've waited this long...i've tried to forget about it but that didn't work too well. i've got no car at the moment so that makes it so much worse.

all my friends think i have just been bullshitting to them about me buying a skyline because i told them about a month ago that i would have it and then everyweek since i've saying yeah it's on it's way....i can't wait to see their faces when i pull up next to them and blow all their commodores off the line though

onarun: what did you loose you license for?

i get mine back on June 4 and have already lost points on it so i'm only going to have 1 point as soon as i get it back.

from everything that has been happening to me i'm starting to think that i'm not meant to have a car or something like that :roll:

I've seen a few around sydney, but sorry don't have any pics. :P

A bit off the topic, would such a mod would be classified as a defect?

:evil:[/quote:e06d187810]

not sure if it will be a defect, i think all they have to go on with exhausts is noise, emmissions and clearance. with clearence it should only become a problem if some part of the exhaust is close to or below the bottom of my rim without a tyre (in case of a tyre blow out etc etc). r33 is not a loud engine so thats ok and emissions, well the cop would have to be a tool.

    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
    • You can get them with the worm drive rotator but I was too tight to pay another $250-$300 so manual labour it is! I don't think it will be too hard to rotate though. 
    • Sag as in the windows start to slowly open themselves, or they're just slow to go up/down with engine off?
    • It looks like it needs a big worm gear drive on it to control the rotating, not a few sloppy pins!
    • As Duncan said, first there was OBD, which few cars used, then came OBD2.   Now an interesting point, OBD2 isn't even for what you want to do. OBD2 is for emissions testing. There is some sensor data on OBD2, but it's up to the manufacturer what they're putting on it. Most scan tools operate on UDS, which like OBD2 is a standard built on-top of CAN. UDS specifies how to structure a message, what very limited things mean such as "read memory address" but it does not specify what is stored in which memory address, that is all up to the manufacturer. You either a scan tool compatible with that vehicle, or to know how to reverse engineer all the data, which can take a VERY long time and a lot of vehicles to get it right. Oh and then the manufacturer does a firmware update and changes what's where... Ask me how I know that as fact Oh, and by the time you've got the scan tool that supports all the manufacturers stuff, well, you're back at "But a consult cable and the Nissan software" The main difference being most manufacturers software these days works with the same hardware readers, as the readers are built to support J2534 which is another standard for how the PC communicates with the tool to make it do specific things on the car...
