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:

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.

      As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers.

      Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
