I have a fujitsubo 3inch cat back and it sounds good.But all other skylines i hear sound angrier and throatier,not to mention louder. Why is this? Will a dump/front pipe make my car sound better? Im after the cool RB sound that is unmistakable. Anyone got any suggestions?

CHEERS

i got the same fujitsubo cat back sounds ok and not to loud.i dont want to much attention.

Yeh its good.But id like it to be a bit more throatier.

Do you have a cat?

Ans:

NO: Then probably make no differance

YES, but std:This will be drastically restricting flow, thus will be suffocating engine and robbing you of power.

I myself use a legal hi-flow cat.

My car gets very angry in traffic and yells its head off when it finally breaks free.

I like the noise but the resinating in the car sometimes gives me a head-ache.... ;)

If you want load and angry.....straight through custom 3" pipe and hot dog with no silencer.

If this is too load get a 3"resinator put on like me.

;)

Mine was just a split dump, cat then straight through to cannon.

I had to have a resonator added , the drone in the cabin was just far too unbearable. When you hit the right rpm the whole cabin would just vibrate.

No not yet but wouldnt that make it quieter?

In all probability, no.

Most mufflers work by slowing down the exhaust gas. Taking energy out of the exhaust stream reduces the noise it generates when it exits. I'm sure you've noticed that most aftermarket exhausts that are less restrictive also tend to be louder than stock.

If the cat is less restrictive to flow, its also muffling less.

I had a JASMA certified Fujitsubo cat back with centre muffler/resonator and final oval muffler with standard dump/front/cat and it was also noticably quiet when putting arond but had a deep clean note when opened up. Anything but a bark. You'll notice a lot of the cars you see with a "bark" are NA.

Dont know about other aftermarket Jap systems but what I noticed with my Fujitsubo system was that it was extremely heavy due to the fact that it was extremely thick steel, which I think helped quiet it down. I reckon it would of been 3mm thick, if not more easily as it had a decent chunk taken out in one part at least 2mm deep and it had not made close to a hole.

    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
