Stagea/gts Exhaust Whats The Difference

[RSVFOURUK]

I have the chance to get a Full 3" NISMO exhaust inc downpie and decat pipe for my RS Four . The car has quite a few mods and badly needs a proper exhaust .

There are none in the uk as Stageas are still very rare.

I know the Stagea exhaust is longer but dont know where or if the exhust is even close. Certainly the downpipe is the same.

Can anyone help with any info.

Catback will work, will need to add a 20cm long section somewhere tho.

my catback system is from an R33 (sorry, not sure if 4 door or coupe), and has a 20cm piece welded just behind the muffler - perfect.

Hi mate - good luck with the exhaust - if its a good buy - find yourself a small local fitter to mod it if necessary - also I think Sumopower can get the full HKS pipe in for the Stagea - but might be pricey. I noticed you've got Recaros in the front - did you fit them? If so were from and how much? I'm thinking of getting the drivers seat swapped in mine - and the others re-trimmed to match the new leather door cards. Not sure about the fit of the seat subframe though - sounds like GTR seats fit but not sure - do you know? BTW yor car looks really nice mate - I still haven't seen another on the road over here. If you're ever passing Birmingham send me a post and we can meet for a Stagea family photo .

cheers

PS what else you got fitted to yours - mine's an on going project and the list keeps growing. Front mount intercooler next(ish) onced I've saved again - you got one?

The nismo exhaust wont fit - because of the body kit the pipe extension after the rear box is not long enough and although the system is very similar the system hits the fuel tank. back to the drawing board.

Spec at present.

Body - Full body kit inc rs260 rear spoiler , carbon MASA f/wings and lightened bonnet . MASA grille Also has aftermarket clear back lights (which completely change the look of the car)

Car is painted in pearlescent met green ( goes mauve/black in the sunlight) 17" A.V.S Model 7 wheels with goodyear F1s 235 45 17.

Suspension - Tein adjustable and car has beeen lowered,

Engine has blitz induction kit and dump valve and has apexi boost controller Rear Exhaust box is blitz nur spec but rest is standard and soon to surrender to Mr Rust It does have a small front mounted intercooler but its too small to make much difference,

Interior

Front seats are two tone recaros Black/grey (skyline seats will fit ) Door panels and center glove box are also black seude. Has Apexi EL 2 60mm gauges ( white face) for boost with ex temp feul press and oir temp in A Pillar . Kenwood stereo /dvd head unit that I am still working out after a month .UV glass all round ( not front)

It may have some other mods because it is seems much quicker than the other RS Four I have and handling is much better .

Future mods First thing uprate the brakes before I hit something ( R 33 Brembos will fit with the larger wheels) and exhaust then who knows.........
