Recommended Posts

Im looking at getting an exhaust for my GTR

I think the kakimoto exhausts sound awesome

But im after something that dosent have a cannon rear muffler

If you're referring to the type i have on my car, I've got no idea as well:

All i know is that it's 3.5" from cat-back (possibly mild-steel? I dunno) with 2 big oval mufflers and 3.5" tip - Only markings i could find on the exhaust was under the muffler where it had the JASMA Japanese emissions label stamped on.

I'm also interested to see if anyone knows about manufacturers that have produced these type of exhausts.

Cheers,

Steve

Just get one made over here :(

do you think that a custom made exhaust would flow as well as a jap produced one

it may be a stupid question, but i feel that a hks or kakimoto may just flow better as it is designed specifically for the car.

i was thinking, if i got one made at an exhaust shop that i might use

xForce dumps and cat

magnaflow rear muffler

get them to make the rest, (front pipe, and catback)

A well made exhaust is a well made exhaust...

Not sure what you mean when you say a Jap one is designed for the car... custom made local one is also designed for the car, so its the same thing.

As long as its designed to flow, then it will is the be all and end all really.

Any decent exhaust place can produce work equal or better to the Japs.

My exhaust (locally made, custom mufflers the works) will flow over 350rwkw no problem and its 92dB at the moment, so damn quiet.

Other cars i know are making more than that, and similar noise outputs.

One that I have never seen anyone else mention is a momo-course exhaust.... was a beautiful sound when my car was non turbo .. now its bloody quiet unless you put your foot down.. then she still gives a good roar;)... i think its a 3-3.5inch system and a 5inch tip...which looks pretty big :)....heres some pics...

sounds like custom is in order then

do you think i should provide the dumps, or have the whole thing custom made??

ive just done some more reading up on here about other custom exhausts

i was thinking of getting 3" the whole way

but seems like people are suggesting 3.5"

but, primarily, should i provide the dumps?(and possibly provide the cat too, if i get xforce dumps and cat)

There are plenty of off-shelf dumps around these days, just get those

And the rest from the Front Pipe back, fitting dual mufflers will keep it nice and legal(ish) for the EPA

    • Yeah they sure are available for import now, its great news Matt, You need an import specialist insurer, nothing has really changed over the years about the mainstream insurance companies not touching them. I have my cars with Lumley (same group as NRMA etc) because they insure imports and have a good concept of "stable use" where as long as no more than 2 cars are being driven each day you can have them all on a good rate, I've also had no issues with claims through them. Note they won't insure a car if you take it to the track, even for an off track claim. Shannons are another option but I had a lot of trouble with their claims (they were happy to take the premiums, not so keen to pay out), and I'm sure there are other import specialists too 
    • I'm a lifelong home drummer, was in a couple of bands as a teenager/early 20's then moved to Japan and didn't play at all until 2019 when my missus and I were invited to check out the band room upstairs at a restaurant cafe here in JP. They had a full acoustic drum kit and they let me have a bash for about 20 mins. I went away from there wondering how I could not play for 19 years.... Missus bought me a e-drum kit a few weeks later (Yamaha DTX402) which is basic but lets me play at home in my tiny Japanese house.  Also have an Epiphone Les Paul and little Vox amp and delay pedal I bought for the missus because she wanted to learn to play the guitar, but she never got into it. That was about 8 years ago. I taught myself to play some 80's U2 song riffs like the Fly solo, etc and some other things but being a drummer I don't really have the dexterity in the fingers lol. Ham fisted if you will. So I kind of just mess around with the guitar rather than try to seriously play complete songs. My son on the other hand inherited all my side of the family's musical talent and is a brilliant classical pianist at 16 years old. He'll go on to do something in the music industry here for sure once he finished his schooling. I got him a Yamaha NU1XA hybrid piano earlier this year.
    • If the BOV is plumbed in as mentioned, like stock.... why exactly would it stall? It'd be like stock. Do stock cars stall with stock bovs?
    • You mean a rich spike, as the air has been metered multiple times due to the turbulent air, you end up injecting more fuel causing a momentary dip in torque and quite possibly a stall event. TL;DR, install a Haltech Elite or S3 or R3, convert to DBW, throw all ancient shit into the bin and enjoy the car.
