I'm in the market to get a new exhaust for my r32 GTR...

Right now it's got a 5zigen catback with the factory cat and some unknown stainless steel down pipes

First of all... I am looking for an exhaust either fully stainless steel or titanium... Mild steel is good but they salt the roads where i live and i need something that is going to last...

Second... I want something that looks badass.. I want a single (barrel/cannon) muffler that comes out at an angel

Next... I'm looking for an exhaust that will support up to 500++HP and breath very easily....

So... with that in mind... i'm looking for something with VERY little restriction (i.e. bends, resonators, etc)

I'm not exactly sure about size... I understand 3" will do the job... but I'd like to get something around the 3.5" mark... for future modifications

I've looked into several brands and they all have their pro's and con's.....

Blitz Nur Spec R: I own one on my rb25 powered s14.... beautiful exhaust.. quality is amazing...

I'd like to try something a little different this time...

HKS Silent Hi-Power: full stainless and piping sizes up to 95mm... but i have no experience with this catback... I'm sure it's awesome... it's HKS

(This is one of my initial choices)

HKS Racing Muffler: Stainless 102mm piping... titainium muffler... .for extreme high horsepower applications... looks like an incredible exhaust system... if you know anything about it share the wealth

Apexi GT Spec: 3.75" piping... full stainless... one solid piece of piping... not made into sections so it lowers exhaust turbulance by not having flanges... any info you could provide would be helpful

Kakimoto Hyper 2000 FullMega N1+Single: I believe it's available in 90mm piping... and it's kakimoto... which i've read and is supposively the best of the best

Trust Power Extreme Ti-R: titainium... n1 style... and available in 90mm... i can't read japanese and none of the language filters (bablefish) will help... if you know anything about these please tell

Trust Power Extreme Ti: stainless i think... 80mm ... i don't know anything more.. if you do please let me know

That's about it as far as my list goes so far... or atleast these were all of the exhausts i was interested in... yes i know i could save a lot of money by making a custom job but then where is the fun in blowing all your money on a high priced japanese exhaust???

Any other comments or advice you could offer let me know...

Thanks... happy driving

cheers

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
