hey,

Was thinking about cutting off cannon and putting on twin 2.5" pipes out back of r32. (this is not for road use)

Atm car has no mufflers apart from a cannon, and its just 3" turboback. Has anyone ever heard a rb20 with no mufflers. I know if you just unbolt cannon sounds like a sack of shit.. will it sound any better with the extra lengh in pipe?? Has anyone got a clip? I searched youtube but no luck

cheers

Search 240sx, rb20, and straight pipe. There are a few sound files of rb’s with open pipes on you tube.

It’ll sound a little “cleaner” with pipes out the back as the sound wont be echoing under the car. It’ll still sound like an Isuzu truck at idle though.

One of my R32’s had a 3inch system turbo to tip with no mufflers or cat, it will get annoying if you daily drive the car and obviously the Police will pick on you.

Would I do it again? Yes. Did it make any power gains? No. The popping on de-cel and the ridiculous amount of flames were a novelty at the time.

It will be freaking loud and probably drone. My RB25DET had this exact setup when I bought it, it was horrible. The droning was crazy, sounded great on WOT but how often are you on WOT compared to cruising? Never mind also that it's obviously illegally loud, and the last thing we need with these cars are more attention from the boys in blue.

My cefiro rb20 is 2.5" dump into 3" dump back.. only 1 centre res and thats it. I love the sound of it.. no drone at all. Its actually fairly quiet on idle but absolutely screams on boost. I do rate the cefiro rb20 note quite a bit better than the 32 rb20, mainly due to the rougher sound. I dont have any videos of it at the moment though..

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
