I’ve heard your a bit of a bender
Am now, folded a few things up to show it off. Haven't worked on a bender for 18yrs but the principles and practices are still the same. 8 x metal thickness. Annealing aluminium. Blah blah. Sheety:-)
well, the std pipe is a fkn wierd bit of kit with a massive traingular box section hanging off the back of the muffler - there to keep it flat at the back for the pillion I assume, but that is no longer an issue, so
I am thinking about 350-400mm in length, need to have an inlet to take 1 3/4' pipe. Gotta have a nice thick casing, as its going to have lugs welded direct to the case
Probably best to step it up from 1 3/4" to 2" into the muffler. :-) 44.45mm to 50.8mm we should have the reducers at work. Or I can make one. The magnaflow would be a 2" I/d. From memory and 304 s/s construction.?

1.6mm body thickness on the 304 s/s magnaflow 2" I/d So u could mount it off 4" accuseal clamps adapted, aluminised steel. Suss out the magnaflow website and epe website. Check what you need. I would recommend 2" I/d 4" o/d muffler 16" long. Will remove any high end frequency and make it sound low down. Cost price.

It would just need reinforcing-pads or you could call it a skin welded to the muffler then you build off of that.:-) like a bit of heavy equipment with lifting lugs. Or we could skin the whole muffler with heavier material.

Mounting hoops or clamps would be the way to go with it. To save on weight and not stress out the muffler body.

A couple of barrel hoops on one of hose 4" diam flat black race series round body ones would look absolutely tits, and exactly the sort of rat look i want. Chuck lots of exposed weld seams on the rest of the pipework, ceramic coated flat black as well, and done!

will sort out a part number etc and PM you for a price

Cool.

So this is what I had done today. She the cars aircon works finally!. Ice cold. Piggy back ECU is in with a stock tune but the cars now backfiring and idling really rough so in going to have to take it back next week and get it looked into.

Now wind the boost to the moon!!!
Not everyone enjoys winding the boost up to 26psi cause they can with water/methanol injection till it spins all the way through third on sticky tyres. Xcept you.[emoji41] Animal. Hand full of opposite lock at 130km. Trevs.

Yeah mines a pain in the ass with the a/c on. I pulled and cleaned the Iacv (was pretty clean) and tested the idle up solenoid. Worked no probs but after research is the Iacv is blocked off because of the nistune. Clutch was siesed in the a/c compressor so put a new one on and got a re-gas. I've re-set the idle to 900rpm. But it drops to 550 when the thermo cuts in not the a/c compressor clutch. It only stalls if you have to brake hard or on and off the clutch pedal at the lights. If only we knew a auto electrician to the stars? Probably busy on a 3000hp CAT. Or building a mansion down south.

Yeah well im gonna ring Mark (C-Red) tomorrow and let him know whats happening and see what he thinks?

How did she run to and from Alcoa today?

Flawlessly

Actually the spare was upside down and rumbled constantly. With no amps I had nothing to listen to other than Zorst, Spool and rattle/rumble

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
