Hey guys,

my mind has been flooded with alot of random info from alot of people now in regards to an exhaust system. i would like your oppinions.

ok so here we go, i am looking at upgrading my exhaust and would like something with a smooth tone nothing too "droney" and was looking at possibly going with a Hks hi power silent, but have seen 2 varieties, 1 is full stainless cat back with a mufler in the middle, and the other is a mild steel system with a "hotdog" type mufler, so im a little confused there, ( has 1 replaced the other or what?) i am now also looking at two of hte trust systems, the trust power extreme 2 silent, and the trust power extreme Ti, will be looking at also doing front pipe and dump pipe in the near future, and have found that the trust front pipe is mild steel and not stainless, what is alos better and is there if any difference apart from looks Mild steel dump/front pipe, vs stainless?

has anyone had any experiences with the trust cat back pipes that i mention, and what are your thoughts, and are they in stainless or mild, hotdog or mufler configuration.

your thoughts and help please.

basically i want a reasonable not too loud exhaust that is stainless steel from dump to tip and would LIKE it to be one brand :banana:

can someone please help here.

the mild steel will produce a deeper sound when compared to the stainless

mild steel is cheaper and can rust if not painted/treated whereas stainless wont rust

3inch piping from the turbo back is what most people go for, not too loud and isnt restrictive

there are a lot of threads about exhausts, just use the search feature and you'll find what you're looking for mate :banana:

From what I have heard the Trust PEII is quite restrictive.

I've got a Kakimoto Regu 06&R, which sounds good and doesnt drone. At normal cruising its not much different than the stock Nismo exhaust I had.

I've also heard good things about one of the Fujitsubo as a quiet alternative.

As for the dump, I got one of the BOS/BATMBL. I think its the best design split/dump and front pipe in one.

I have a Trust PEII and I wouldnt say its restrictive. I make good power and it made a large difference when I put it on from stock.

Add to the fact that I have driven almost 60,000km with it on in the past 12 months with no defects and no cops giving me greif about it when I get pulled in for rbt's etc I would have to say its an awesome exhaust!

    • Last year I got a set of MCA street coilovers for my turbo Forester after my son hitting a concrete gutter/wall on a small bridge causing the whole drivers side suspension to get bent because the rain just made the car slide out I love them, I think they were $2400. even had a hiccup of have the wrong hub configuration (my fault) so got onto MCA and they sent the correct shock ends overnight parts from QLD, for free!  I was very impressed with their customer service and quality of the product  
    • They've had some weird failures on their brake actuators. One of them was because they added some kind of lubricant to the factory fill brake fluid that aftermarket brake fluid didn't have so it would affect the seals. Another was just mysterious, probably internal corrosion or something eating away at Prius brake actuators. Parts alone for those are a few thousand USD so not a cheap fix.

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
