Exhaust System

[Whyallapunk]

Hey all,

Basically I have $300 lying around and am searching for a new exhaust system. I want it louder then my stock R32GTSone I have now, but not too loud and shitty like many commodores in my town. After searching around on here for a while, I have come across this Here. I'm just wondering if this would bolt straight on my car without any hassles, as I am not to technically minded as of yet.

Thanks

Dead link...

$300 isn't much... Do you intend to turbo it in the future? Just a straight through 2.5" pipe with mandrel bends will nearly set you back that much, add 2 mufflers and a high flow cat and you've at least doubled that... Then theres what quality you want... On my twin cam, i have a huge resonator, and a magnaflow mandrel center offset stainless rear muffler, that sounds tops imo the same system in 2.5" with a cat would give a great sound. My system cost me $550 through a local exhaust shop (mates rates though) and is 3" Mandrel, with no cat, plus i had it flanged and welded to modified (from R33 to R31) tuned length fujitsumoto extractors. I'd say ~ $700minimum if you want to include a high flow cat...

But I'm speaking for it you want a decent system, otherwise for cheap mufflers and a press bent 2.5" it'd probably set you back $250... Also if you bought a stock turbo exhaust you could save a bit...

Cheers

Well basically I'm pretty keen on getting that system provided in the link. It's just that I'm going to sell my car probably beginning of next year and don't want to spend much on the car beforehand. So it's basically just a question of if that exhaust will fit my car and will i need anything else to help it fit?

Thanks for the imput

To answer your question, Yes it will fit but it's going to be pretty loud 3" cat back to suit a turbo prob not the best option, the muffling will be pretty got being a name brand muffler but i don't think it'll be suited to the non-turbo very well. you'd prob need to have a resonator welded it for it to be not about 100db's. 3" is also prob a bit big in a non-turbo best to try find a 2.5 1/2 system, have a search in the na section theres a lot of info on the best suited zorsts for na skylines, wouldn't want you to loose any torque or anything.

well $300 will get u a cannon of u r lucky and thats not including getting it installed...........

i would honestly save your pennies and buy and decent one.......mine cost me $900 for a Trust 3" Stainless Steel Catback Exhaust. I would defintly say it was worth buying it and i wouldnt change my mind, and i know its gonna last for a long time

oh yeah and with my 3" i dont have the mandatory naturally aspirated fart sound either.
