Aftermarket Front Pipe

[Duncan]

Did we ever confirm which front pipes fit which models? I need front pipes to fit S1 manual and would love to know what fits - would prefer the just jap split ones if possible

[darrinspencer]

Justjap split does not fit, hits floor, quality not as good

Bos importing and CES split do fit, but cost more, good quality

X force bell mouth fits, good quality

bell mouth produced more kw approx 7-8kw on a hks GTRS on a neo stagea, over a split dump.

thanks mate that was quick and easy.

who is cheapest and where do I get them?

What did the JJR split one hit? I can get a workshop to modify if its not too much stuffing around

[darrinspencer]

JJR split $250, hits floor along side gearbox. If you do a search I had a thread showing the reason why

Bos $420 s/s

CES $550-650

X force s/s $350 from UAS or maybe $330 JJR

I ended up with the x force

That is awsome news!!! I couldnt decide if i should go split or bell mouth and its for a S2 Manual, I am also going to be buying a HKS GTRS..

Car goes in next weeks so im glad I chose the Bell Mouth...

Bell mouth Just Jap stainless steel R33 dump pipe (2yrs ago) fitted my Series 1 auto Stagea perfectly.

was $220 delivered by memory.

fitted by tuners with other stuff at the time.

BOSimporting cat flows 630CFM X-Force flows 570CFM... is 60CFM worth doubling the price?

im getting the xforce bellmouth from justjap, but they are out of stock atm

[leetom]

i say go ces, excellent power gains quality of build exceptional, worth the extra bucks, they really know there business when it comes to split pipes ( yeh i've got a full s/s system so i'm going to endorse e'm, 25 xtra kw's says so), some people think the o2 sensors in the wrong posistion but i,ve had no dramas

good luck

leigh.

Duncan, I can confirm that the JJR split one doesn't fit. I bought one a few months back and took it down to UAS for fitting. Andrew showed me where it hits, it's kinda near one of the rear engine or front gearbox mounts (can't remember exactly). We compared it to an R34 one which he'd just changed, and the R34 is a closer fit - it has a bit of a kink where the mount is.

hmm so JJR belmouth it is when they are back in stock....I don't care about small extra gain so I'll just go for the cheapest.

Thanks all

sounds like a plan

Anyone have any ideas about the cat?

[JVP]

im getting a just jap cat if that matters?

the flow figures... prob just go both from just jap

[Brycey]

i just got a AM Performance split f/dump pipe, fantastic craftsmanship, just gotta get my car back to see if it fits correctly!

around the $400 mark

[Duncan]

cats are cats they will all fit. if you car about the environment buy a lovely standard one and replace it every 40000klm. If you don't get the biggest, cheapest mesh style one you can. eg JJR or similar

[rubba]

JJR Split Dump & Front Pipe - Nissan Skyline R33 GTS-T Price: $269

High Flow Design - 3 inch Stainless Steel

Is this the one you guys are talking about that won't fit?

Also what are you fellas doing for the rest of the exhaust? JustJap have HKS Stagea specific exhaust packages for $799, has anyone used these or would it be cheaper to just get an exhaust shop to fill in the rest?

I was going to go the JJ HKS quiet one. Got my hands on a lovely trust setup the other day but it doesn't fit, are S1 and S2 different? (or maybe it was just labelld wrong and isnt stagea at all)

[rubba]

I'd say so because JJ have 2 different HKS stag kits on there, one for s1 and one for s2.

[Duncan]

ahh very good point.

In that case Hills Motorsport have a lovely 3 inch zorst suit a series 2, looks nice and quiet with 3 straight thru mufflers, perfect for a stagea
