G’day

 

Had a good look through, however surprisingly hasn’t been covered.

 

Looking at getting a bit more squat out of the rear end of my R32, currently has quantum racing coil overs which are more suitable to circuit work.

With the discontinuation of the HKS Hipermax drag coil overs what are people running these days for trips down the strip? car is by no means an all out drag car, i use it for as many different events as possible, however wouldn't mind having a set of rear coil overs to bolt in when looking to do some drag passes 

Cheers,

I struggled to find info on this also, back in the day it was all HKS DRag everyone talked about.  With them now obsolete these days, a mate of mine sourced KSPort coilovers from MVP motorsports in USA with HKS spec internals for his supra.  He never ended up running the car.. I ended up following suit with Myr32 gtr and had them build me a set, my car is only just running now and should be home mid january, in time for some testing then hit the track.  Mine is full weight GTR with 3.2 nitto/hollinger setup.  What you running? 

Will let you know how it goes..

HKS 2.8, 6466, holinger on e85 ~740whp 

 

Not a drag car by any means, however wanting to see how far i can push the 6466 before maybe gong 7675 in the future 

Wouldn't be a slouch with 740 and hollinger nice one.  I wondering if my hollinger will stand up to the task ahead :ermm:

will post up on suspension after I hit the track..

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      But there's the archetype for the name plate! Here's my view on that stupid TÜV ruleset. Buy a brand name aftermarket piece of equipment. In this case, the Mines front pipe we're talking about. Get it TÜV certified on the car. Damage the underside of it, say on a speed bump. Cut out the damaged section, replace with fresh metal. (For the sake of the argument only), continue doing that to the whole pipe until it is all gone, replaced with new metal. Is this grandfather's axe still the same front pipe? The design hasn't changed (much). The pipe walls are in the same places. The flanges are in the same places. It is functionally identical. How does this differ from a pipe that is ever so slightly different in fabrication (ie the number of welds in it, a few mm here and there in terms of where the pipes run, are joined, etc)? Anyone with 0.5% of a brain can see that there is absolutely no way that the performance (power, environmental aspects, noise, etc etc) of it can be any different than the genuine Mines pipe. Maybe even Mines made 2 versions of this design, with the same differences. How would anyone (say a TÜV inspector) ever be able to differentiate between them? And yet, they are so bloody anally retentive about this stuff. Mad. How upset would they be if you had the wrong spring washers on the flanges?

      By Rezz · Posted

      After a fairly extensive search using Japanese terms and checking Minkara etc, I couldn't find anything even close to your front pipe in the photos. I'm no expert but the two pipes merge really close to the flange connected to the catalytic converter which is rather unique from what I've seen, which makes me think it's more than likely a custom front pipe. The welds and 'more pipe sections than usual for a brand name pipe' makes it seem like a custom one.  Here's some photos of an old Mine's front pipe. You can see that it's just 4 pipe sections as opposed to 6, and arguably looks more like a 'production' front pipe:
