I'm looking at getting a 3" system from the dump pipe back for my Stagea.

I had always taken my exhaust jobs to Craig at Maddat, but he no longer owns the business.

Can anyone recommend a good non-rexpensive, but non-cheap place to go to?

Or does anyone have a 3" system lying around that will fit? :P

Thanks. I'll check them out during my lunch break!

exhaust technology

Thanks but I think they charge too much for what they do.

try Just Jap for quote for a cat back system

Just Jap bellmounth stainless steel 3" turbo to cat pipe @ approx $220 delivered is used on my RS4 Stagea (series 1)

highflow cat converter for Skyline

cat back system is simply mild steel mandrel bent (any exhaust shop) with a GTR Kakimoto Racing muffler welded on, all positioned correctly.

You DONT need to spend big bucks on an exhaust

How similar is the exhaust system (dump pipe back) for an R33 and Stagea? Will an R33 system fit under a Stagea? :(

I just bought Steve's old system and will mod it to fit if need be. I might even still fab in a Magnaflow muffler to quieten it done some if its too loud.

:P

an r33 4-door system will still need 30cm in length added to it, somewhere.

may need some slight re-mandrel bends so best to get a shop to fit and weld it together.

I went to lonsdale exhausts to add a muffler and it was pretty cheap.

Well then thats a good opportunity to fit a flow-thru muffler about mid section then to make up the 30cm :(

I'll prob fit it up myself and see what needs doing on the weekend, just for something to do LOL

+1 for ET. Never had an exhaust done anywhere else. They've done 5 exhausts for me so far, 2 x sets of I/C piping, 3 inlet pipes, not to mention all the other shit they've helped me with. Marky's also helping me put in my cage (bolt in jap unit, but with welded in floor plates etc) getting the lines sorted for my hydro, and were also changing the exhaust on the 31 for the 3rd tme LOL.

Also, give Andrew at AM performance a try. Works out a small shed, but from what Ive seen the workmanship is pretty damn good.

But go to marky first :dry:;):P

    • I have a VALCON if anyone wants it, I have no idea why you'd want to have VVT specifically broken out of the ECU as opposed to running it off the FCON/whatever standalone you have.
    • Hi Yes we're a bit optimistic we might get something out of sealing up the two pipes of the external wastegate and reactivating the stock one. I believe the orginal stock wastegate was tack welded shut. It doesn't budge and visually looks closed and sealed. The car has noticeably more lag so it could be at least part of the problem, maybe all. It's definately one of the key changes made since last tune. And it's one that's more difficult to fully understand and measure, not like for instance timing or cylinder compression.  Thanks for that feedback, we'll let you know how this progresses. Fingers crossed.   Regards Rob
    • Transplanting the vvt from a 25neo into an rb26?
    • Well, I was going to say, "Is the wastegate set up so that it is not leaking?" That's actually a different thing to what you're asking about. In theory, if you have allowed the two halves of the manifold to commmunicate (more than the stock manifold does - which is at least a little bit) then the negative effect should be apparent in delayed spool, not in outrigth power. OK, maybe just maybe, a badly set up twin scroll wastegate "crosstalk" might kill the top end, although it's hard to see how. What is happening with the original wastegate in the turbo? is it sealed off properly. If it's left flapping in the breeze, it will f**k everything up. If it is still there, and can be returned to service, I'd be capping off the external (presuming the two halves can and will be isolated from each other after doing so) and have a go with just the stock wastegate. I have an internal wastegate in my highflowed rear housing. The bigger opening and flapper should be fine to >250 rwkW. So there's not exactly a pressing reason to have the external. Done right, an external will give better results. Done wrong, it might just be possible to have worse results. Report back!
