Youll need a GTR one unfortunately. Theyre quieter than a GTSt, and those dont pass. I had stock fronts, a cat with stuff in it and a GTSt catback, its read 91-92 still. Maybe if you get a good place theyll let it slide because its all nissan stuff.

bugger.. i have heard of ppl putting wire mesh in the zorst for short amount of time.. does this work? i was thinking of getting a smaller flange plate made to fit between front pipe and the cat.. not sure if it will effectively reduce the noise by 4db or more though..

the test is done at 5100 rpm which sucks coz the car will easily pass at 4000 - 4500rpm mark with current zorst.. i dont even drive my car around the 5k mark..

anyone have a stock gtr zorst plz help.. other suggestions also appreciated

For other suggestions see the EPA thread.

With my exhaust I have a flange towards the rear, so I got a custom muffler made up, that chocked it like crazy but it passed. Cost me less than $200 to pass.

    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear!

    • When you say basic rebuild, you mean an oem rebuild?
