i have an xforce oval muffler in my 3" system and its damn quiet. So thats an option if u need one.

Will the Xforce muffler fit to the JJR exhaust? Mine is 3 inch going into 3.5 inch muffler I think

I see on Just Jap they have a 3 inch x force mufflers for 195 bucks... is is straight bolt on to my JJR exhaust?

Resonators really make not difference, so many people have been caught by the promise of them working.

Dual mufflers is the only real way to get them to a decent level of quiet

My current muffler is 3.5, will it make much of a difference with 3 inch muffler as others have stated?

I have put my rear seats back in and it is still droney for my liking, the passengers hate going in the back now cos its damn noisy.

Anyway I have measured the actual width of the muffler pipe which is protruding and it is 4.5 inches wide. I thought mine was meant to be 3.5 in width?

If I was to get another canon muffler from x force which is 2.5 or 3 inches will it quiten down my exhaust a fair bit? But will this also need welding?

Or should I just go and get an oval muffler and weld that thing on?

I dont know how much welding will cost and where to get good second hand or even new (prefer second hand) oval mufflers in Melbourne.

Please help.

you have to get rid of that resonnator and stick in another muffler like the one i pictured...

just take it to an exhaust shop and they'll do it for you for a few hundred bucks - try Daalder in Box Hill or Dandenong.

Thanks for that mate.

What about fitting a smaller canon or an oval rear muffler? Would that be the same? Actually what would happen if I wahcked on my stock rear muffler at the back?

I want something for cheap lol

wow i didn't think xforce and quiet went in the same sentance... I have a stainless steel xforce turboback and it is very very loud. It has a hotdog style resonator, Ive been wanting to change it to an oval resonator or proper middle muffler but have been told it wont fit...

I went from a stock exhaust with twin motorbike looking cannons (ricey) to a x-force turbo back exhaust, and my exhaust man said it was too quiet. It is extremly quiet

My system sounds really good at the moment, it consists of an x-force 3" to twin 2" tip muffler at the rear, a mercury 3" slight offset straight through mid muffler and hiflow cat. Just to give you an idea the mid-muffler cost me $110 (muffler and labour) and reduced the exhaust noise heaps. Don't pay $375 seems very expensive.

i have noticed some xforce exhausts come with the oval style resonators and some with the hotdog like mine. my hotdog thing seriously musn't do anything cos its damn loud. Might look into geetting the xforce oval resonator or mid muffler seeing you guys seem to think its quiet.

Anyone dealt with "The Muffler Man"? They quoted me around $375 for the mid muffler to be added.

Sounds about right for a decent muffler.

You pay what you get for.

Some people would have a hernia if i told them how much more my mufflers cost (as it wasnt $375 i can assure you) :verymad:

      Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By MBS206 · Posted

      The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.

      No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
