Hey guys,

I feel like an idiot, but I have to ask cause I can't find anything about it.... :P

Car: R33 GTS-T Series 1

Will a JJR 3" Bellmouth front/dump pipe fit to a stock cat without any mods?

Cheers, :D

Chris.

i am assuming yes, my 3" catback bolted to mey stock cat... but IMO, do the JJR catco 3inch cat with it! My car runs cleaner, and breathes heaps better, funnily enough, when i did the dump/front/cat it sorta "cleaned up" the exhaust note!

  • 1 month later...

ive got a trust pe2 titanium exhaust just from cat back...and honestly nice performance growl (very unique titanium tone) and on high revs sounds like a well modified car...

getting a 3 inch metallic highflow and fujistibuto down pipe when i install my hks 2835 pro s kit with hks dump 3"...should so sound a treat...ill let you know how it sounds.

Hey Guys, I was wondering if anyone knows if a R32 dump pipe and front pipe would fit a S2 RSFOUR? I know the dump pipe will, im just not sure about the front pipe. If not i guess i'll just get it modified to suit as its just sitting in my shed from my old RB20.

chad, id say if the front pipe does, then the dump will... i couldnt see y not. only thing is getting the dump off on mine was impossable... bit of a hard position and bolts wouldnt budge... kidafa has a stock dump you could line it up to.. if not $205 delivered from just jap. to be 100% honest i noticed no difference with a dump pipe on my s2... ill get chomped for that but yeah. plus looking for the pipe the bolt in the 3 oclock position is very hard to get in!

We'll have to meet up after i pick up the Stag so we can have a look at the 2 pipes side by side. The dump pipe should make a difference, i noticed it on my RB20 years ago.

Here's a pic of the pipes.

They were really rude to me so i went to rowville exhaust centre, did a great job.

So I'm looking into replacing the stock exhaust on my M35 ARX.

It it worth going the whole way with a turbo-back, or should I save the $$ ($$?) and just get a cat-back? I know there are some serious performance gains to be had by doing the whole thing, but how much more is a dump + cat likely to cost? I'm unlikely to upgrade the turbo etc in the future (even if it fails) so I'm not going to need massive flow down the track.

With the aussie dollar the way it is I'm assuming I'll be better off getting something made locally rather than importing something?

Also, I'm in Adelaide - does anyone have anything good/bad to say about any exhaust workshops? I have emailed 3 well-known shops today for some quotes, but if there is anyone else around that has worked on M35s it could make the process a bit easier.

I have been reading comments by MXFLY who fitted a dump pipe and high flow cat and kept the standard exhaust whilst waiting for a Legalis exhaust to come from OS.

He commented on the turbo spooling faster and pulling harder than stock.

Have a read of this thread, http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Nm...mp;hl=dump+pipe.

Actually, speaking of Fujitsubo...

Who can get the Legalis-R for the C34 around here?

Nengun only have the NM35 listed, as do RHDJapan. I see plenty on Importmonster, but no direct Aust. suppliers and the cost is just prohibitive.

I'll probably end up heading the same way as you Ryan (as we've discussed), but would be interested to see what kind of price the Fuji can be had for.

Any good performance shop that brings in import parts should be able to get a Fujitsubo Legalis R system for a C34 Stagea. I got mine about 18 months ago from a place here in Melbourne called Revzone. I got the Legalis R Catback and Front pipe all in 3 inch, it cost me $1600 fitted. Best purchase I have made for my Stag sounds great and goes hard and looks like a standard exhaust so no issues with police.

Here is a link to the exhaust I have http://www.fujitsubo.co.jp/product01.php?n...000000000002783

Whatever you do, make sure you get at least a dump back.

Cat back won't help you much, but will have a nice note (usually).

You can get the Liverpool Exhaust dump+cat combo in NRVOUS's thread delivered to your door for about $850.

Then you can either get a custom cat-back or a JDM cat back.

The JDM unit will usually set you back a bit more but it will bolt straight up, have a very nice flow rate and sound great!

If you can stretch for it, go with the Fujitsubo Legalis R, great flow, FANTASTIC sound and is pretty quiet when cruising.

hmm dump/front + cat for $850 delivered ay???? Oh. So. Tempting.

+1 for fuji exhausts

That is delivered to Melbourne. You could just drive to Liverpool & get it installed.

Would be even cheaper.

I think that if I was getting a custom dump made up, I would change the turbo to something larger...

hmmm... Anyone wanna buy an M35 HiFlow? lol...

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
