Hey when im pumpin the beats all you can hear from the outside is an old rattling washing machine sound which sounds gay. Ive already got Dynamat in the doors, so they are fine. HOw do i stop the rego plate from going crazy? Dont think putting Dynamat in the whole boot is going to be right. What are your ideas?

Thx

Chris

hehe...if it worked in your doors, logic would tell you it would work on anything else vibrating also wouldnt it?

If you add weight to anything it will reduce the movement.

Also add a rubber foam dampener as suggested above to soften the impact, but both is best.

Sound deadening your boot is a good idea anyway imo.

A bit of foam between your plate and the car then screwed in works for some, for others a bit of blue tac, I don't see why double sided tape wouldn't work if it was thick enough.

I'd go some rubber stoppers, drilled so when you screw the plate in they sit between the plate and the car - this way will give it enough clearance not to have a chance to rattle on the car.

Otherwise use your imagination :rant:

i glued a nice sheet of foam about 6 to 8mm thick to the back of the numberplate and cut it to shape (and bevelled the edges :P) on my 180sx, then drilled 2 extra holes on the bracket for the bottom 2 nuts, and also cut the bottom bit of the bracket that sticks out a lil and rust proofed it. All up cost me about 5 bucks :D stopped the rattles good and made the numberplate area look a LOT better.

    • Hi all. So I have my GTR on the lift and have been working on it a few days and today I unpacked the frontpipe that was wrapped with heat wrap stuff, because part of it was breaking down and soaked in oil. Noticed that the pipe itself does not actually look like a Mines, despite it supposedly being a Mines. But I could not find any fronpipe online that looks exacly like his, and I don't think it is a custom one. My amateur measurement also showed the two pipes are about equal length, so maybe this is just an old version of the Mines pipe? Would appreciate insight on this by the enlightened folks. greetings from Germany
    • Yeah. If I plug the connector in and connect the vacuum lines, I assume worse case scenario is that it simply doesn't work? Yep PFC.
    • I would think that rather than attempting to perform an engine swap, with all the difficulties associated with doing so in a country where the raw materials required are harder to get hold of, I would just build the CA20 for boost, find an EFI manifold for it and either add a turbo or a supercharger. Or both. You replace one set of difficulties with a different set, but I know which would be more fun.
    • Well, a proper aftermarket ECU** SHOULD be set up to run the purge solenoid, same as the factory ECU would, so that the tank breather system continues to operate the way it is supposed to. I have no knowledge of whether the PFC (which is what I assume you mean when you say Apexi) has an output (and internal logic) to run the purge solenoid. If it does not, then given the product design intent for the PFC, which is to be a plug in replacement for the stock ECU, I would consider that a massive failing on Apexi's behalf and would be another reason to think that they were a half-arsed solution to the problem if programmable management on RBs. I would suggest that since Nistune came to market (which is a LOOOOONG time ago now) there has been no valid argument for choosing a PFC, especially if the PFC can't do things like this.   **ie, Haltach, Link, Motec, etc
    • Thanks for asking the question we were all thinking!
