Hey guys

I have been reading many of the posts about exhausts and extrators on here, but I think I need to post my own thread just to clear some things up for myself. I'm really new to skylines (Owned one since 6 hours ago haha).

My exhaust makes a rattle between 3.5k and 4k revs... it really friggen annoys the crap out of me... sounds so terrible... I currently have the stock exhaust system on.

I'm not after a loud car. I want something that sounds pretty deep and quiet at low revs, but when I put my foot down a bit, it be nice to hear that rumble... again, loud though... (I hope this isn't confusing, it's hard to explain).

I'm thinking by adding extrators that to the stock exhaust that could be all I'm after for sound wise?

Also... That rattle... most likely the cat?

If I took my car down to the local exhaust specialists, what sort of pricing should I be after?

What are the price ranges on extrators + installment as well as cat + install...

Sorry for the basic questions, but doing a little research on here could save me a bit of money...

Thanks for your time

depends on the specialist. call them and ask for their hourly rate.

look anywhere from $500 upwards for a complete system.

again call up and get a quote, stainless steel? mild steel? hp coated? tuned length? custom? it all adds up

as to your rattle question, check the thread that Cris has spent alot of time writing up.

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
