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 :P

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 :ermm:

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

    • Are those 1000cc side feeds? If so, that's part of your problem. I have 1480cc and they idle at stoich on 98RON, and all the way to E85. Also your coil packs.....
    • Update for the sake of closure   Ended up getting the intercooler piping all sorted, new plugs and yellow jacket coils, and she was idling mint until it warmed up while I was bleeding the cooling system. Found the misfire to be localised to cyl 3 by unplugging coilpacks, ran a compression test, that checked out, then decided to get a mate to check if that spark plug was firing out of the motor. Upon cranking it over, with the injectors disconnected, the car actually fired and ran on a couple cylinders and heaps of fuel came out the top of cyl 3 I'd say that injector's either spraying incorrectly or spraying far too much, which is fine as I'm planning on replacing them anyway I'm planning on making about 250kW on flex fuel, and have a set of 1000cc injectors from ozautosport, obviously overkill but I'm planning on building the motor and running more boost further down the line, do you reckon they'd be too big for a smooth idle on 98? Thanks for the replies gents, much appreciated
    • I'm confused. You said you want to "remove the clear coat from most panels" but it sounds like you are actually doing a full respray? Few random things to add -  If you chase the blistered paint with 120 grit, I can almost guarantee you'll chase it down to bare metal (that's fine). But if you paint the car from here, you'll have nice little indents where ever the blistered paint was. The new paint won't magically level out the low areas, you need to fill them. Which leads me to the main point I wanted to add, make sure the whole car is flat before you paint it. All those areas with blistered paint you sanded out, make sure to fill them and triple check they are flat with a block guide coat. I'd also check the whole car is flat with a large block and guide coat but yeah up to you if you want to go that far.   
    • 300hp (225kw) is barely outside the standard turbo's range with a bit of extra boost in it (200ish). If you are going to change the turbo you should aim for 250-300kw (330-400hp) to make the expense worthwhile
