bendy roll cages,

hks pod filters

And those bendy roll cages pretty much dont meet our standards.....but add toughness to the ride in terms of looks only.

Hey meathead, do you have a shopping list of brand names down the sides of your doors? :)

So Chum brains instead of the personal insults how about proving us misguided bogans wrong with some proof or hard facts?

I can tell you now the "90mm" Apexi N1 exhaust on my dads GTR was a restriction swapped it out for a custom system gained 20kw EVERYWHERE & 200rpm of response was gained also.

My Evo 9 doesn't have a single Japanese aftermarket part on it.

Because as pretty as they look they dont produce the results unfortunately!

Could you guys take your pointless country-bashing out of my thread? It was created to determine what else was out there for my setup. Not a Jap/Aussie bashing session. Both countries make fantastic gear, and they also make a lot of lousy gear, it's not restricted to one and to think only one country makes the good stuff is, sorry to say, extremely narrow-minded. Take your "bogans"/"chum brains"/non-thread-related chatter to wasteland

For the purposes of concluding this thread, I went a 76.3mm/90mm tuned-length Racepace front pipe with a triple bolt flange at the cat-end to prevent the restriction - it's an absolute piece of art, sounds bloody amazing and worth every penny!

Settle down princess! You got your information and you chose an Australian product which is good & it also proves our point!

Old meat monger started the debate so what if ya thread gets stunk up a little you made your purchase!

Congratulations on the purchase , I have had Trust extension split dumps for the last 10 years.

They sound good and spool the turbos fast but for the best sound you cannot go past the tuned ones.

I knew that is what you were after in the beginning, but someone decided he knew what you wanted more than you did.

Couldn't help myself mate.

How much did you pay for those custom ones if you do not mind me asking?

Cheers

Mick_o, I have HPI dump pipes and a Tomei exhaust, it doesn't prove your point at all as you're busy slamming Japanese items whilst I happily run both Aussie and Jap items in my car ... :rolleyes:

Cheers man; I'll shoot you a PM re cost in case Racepace prefer to keep costs off public forums

    • The 1000ccs are side feeds but they're not currently installed, had my old factory ones in for leak testing purposes, only decided on them because front facing plenums and good top feed rail kits are out of my budget at the moment, are they really that problematic? Had a set of yellow jackets that lasted me 5 years, no real issues, only replaced them chasing this misfire issue that ended up not being ignition related 😄  
    • Are those 1000cc side feeds? If so, that's part of your problem. I have 1480cc and they idle at stoich on 98RON, and all the way to E85. Also your coil packs.....
    • Update for the sake of closure   Ended up getting the intercooler piping all sorted, new plugs and yellow jacket coils, and she was idling mint until it warmed up while I was bleeding the cooling system. Found the misfire to be localised to cyl 3 by unplugging coilpacks, ran a compression test, that checked out, then decided to get a mate to check if that spark plug was firing out of the motor. Upon cranking it over, with the injectors disconnected, the car actually fired and ran on a couple cylinders and heaps of fuel came out the top of cyl 3 I'd say that injector's either spraying incorrectly or spraying far too much, which is fine as I'm planning on replacing them anyway I'm planning on making about 250kW on flex fuel, and have a set of 1000cc injectors from ozautosport, obviously overkill but I'm planning on building the motor and running more boost further down the line, do you reckon they'd be too big for a smooth idle on 98? Thanks for the replies gents, much appreciated
    • I'm confused. You said you want to "remove the clear coat from most panels" but it sounds like you are actually doing a full respray? Few random things to add -  If you chase the blistered paint with 120 grit, I can almost guarantee you'll chase it down to bare metal (that's fine). But if you paint the car from here, you'll have nice little indents where ever the blistered paint was. The new paint won't magically level out the low areas, you need to fill them. Which leads me to the main point I wanted to add, make sure the whole car is flat before you paint it. All those areas with blistered paint you sanded out, make sure to fill them and triple check they are flat with a block guide coat. I'd also check the whole car is flat with a large block and guide coat but yeah up to you if you want to go that far.
