Hey guys, well its been about a month now and i think im ready for the next level of modding my R33 GTST.. Well ive been researching on the fourms a for a while now and ive found that a few people have catback and some full.. I was wondering...Would you guys recommend me a good exhaust setup.. like turbo back... all the way with high flow car is ok? or bad.. i wana hear the goods and bads... I'd appreciate it if you guys would post up the goods and bads about your set ups... My plan is to have a full ehxuast all the way not to loud but... something good then my next mod would be a intercooler... Thanks so much guys.

Geraus Huynh.

What bads? as long as you dont go something ridiculously over 4" turbo back I cant see anyhing causing a problem (except for noise)

Free(er) flowing exhaust is a good thing, exhaust gases are leaving the engine faster.

If you dont want a lot of noise then the Trust PEII is probably a good option, 3" pipe and only barely over legal limit. Fujitsubo have a few that are quiet with good airflow aswell, stay away from the HKS high power silent, it is not silent :yes:

The Magic cat is a good brand and try to aim for atleast 3inch or bigger as a minimun.

Also, get a split dump and front pipe - So the seperate wastegate pipe joins down nea the cat, this helps reduce any turbulence up the dump pipe end.

I have a trust system with two oval mufflers and it is very very quiet. So if you want silence go for two mufflers that are oval, but if you want it loud, go a single cannon.

have fun

Heres a hint, try any of the car importers in town.

A lot of their stock comes into the country with good quality aftermarket exhausts, these exhaust are of no real value to them

as they need stock systems to comply their cars. What they do need is stock systems like yours..aproach one nicely and do a deal, it

should work out cheaper by a good $ or 2. I found a huge genuine nismo cat back and a titanium dump for mine some years back.

I've since changed the dump to a split. I think it cost me around $350 at the time fitted.

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      Because all parts that are put into your papers usually are assigned a badging if they did not come with one. So other people can just check that badging to tell if it is the parts your papes outline. But my pipe has NOTHING on it whatsoever. No idea why this even passed as a Mines pipe to begin with. I see this going two ways: -nobody cares and it's a non-issue, but that is unlikely -the pipe will just have to be assigned a bagding, for sake of argument, a Mines logo, and the papers corrected accordingly If it interests you I will post what the actual solution ended up being. All I care about is that it has to sound equal length and nobody can screw me later on because of a pipe being illegal.

      The fasteners to the pipe are not subject to TÜV I guess, if we really start putting nuts and bolts through technical tests I'm going to hang the people responsible and then myself. Usually on a modern-ish EU normed car, you would just replace the pipe. Because if you start hacking away at it and welding new pieces on the cops will definitely find a reason to tow your car. That is just how it is sadly. On old cars and imports with no clear "standard" stuff like that won't matter too much. Most cops or inspectors probably won't even really know what they are looking at. But there is experts for this stuff even among cops, and some of them know the rules to a T and even have extensive knowledge about many vehicles. For "just a pipe" to be legal it usually is included in a set of parts, like a complete intake kit or a full exhaust. For example my exhaust needs to pass a noise test, meaning they have a standardized test track with a set of instructions and they run the car through there 3x for an average noise value that is 75dB(a) at point x of the test track. If it's above that, fail. For a turbo setup to be put in your papers you have to do dyno runs, emissions testing etc. So quite costly

      Would this not be the same for the exhaust you've posted up?  If your exhaust volume and emissions are fine, why does the brand of pipe matter?

      The issue is more the fact that there is inspectors that deal with japanese cars a lot and they might know what a real Mines pipe looks like. And then they're gonna get antsy and not pass your car. But I'd have to talk to one of them about this, because you know as well as me that it's just a damn pipe and it effectively doesn't do anything. As I need to have my GT2860s and my exhaust setup (and the increase in HP) TÜV'd anyways maybe they can just correct the entry in the papers or assign a badge to the front pipe. I'm no expert either though, will inquire about this.     Thanks for the insight. Not sure if having a custom made pipe is good or not. Will find out in due time I suppose. Would be kind of funny if this was made in Germany though.

      See this is a really tricky topic as technically the same rules apply to all cars but for cars but there is a difference. If you want to modify a car like the Skyline which never existed here you have a bit more freedom as they do not adhere to EU specs anyway. Any modification you do has to be in dividually checked anyway so as long as one of the inspectors think it's ok and within the TÜV ruleset you can get stuff like a top secret rear diffuser put in your papers. Which frankly would need a shitload of tests and certificates for EU spec cars, like a 2010 BMW M3 for example. But if you DO run these tests and all tests come out ok (safety stuff for the most part) there is no problem running such a part legally. It's just way too expensive to do for a single person on one car. The most touchy parts are emissions related mods, like an exhaust, turbos, air intakes. If it makes noise or alters the carbon emissions it's essentially illegal until you prove it's not. Meaning it doesn't exceed noise limits or have worse carbon emissions. I'd say for hoses if you replace them same same it doesn't matter what material they are or what brand you use. Same for nuts and bolts usually, they won't go and specifically check that your water hoses and some bolts are 100% OEM parts, that is nonsense.
