hey guys,

currently im unable to decide whether to put an exhaust system in my car. right now the stock one is alright but i want to have the noise sometimes. my friends integra sounds really great with one, deep but not too much and i want one like that but i also like it being quiet as well. when driving around at night its nice having the car nice and quiet also the cops dont look at you until they here the *whooosh*.

what are your thoughts?

Thanks

Sunny

That would be the next upgrade i would choose. There are aftermarket systems that aren't that loud depending on mufflers used. Im sure there are people on here that have nice sounding exhausts without being overly loud.

Not me though.. :D

If you just want a nice sound, there are some pretty good cat-back systems out there.

Get one that you think looks good, cause there are some pretty ugly looking exhaust systems out there.

If you want some performance go for a turbo back. Dump pipe, Front pipe, Highflow metal cat and cat-back all in 3"

Like MAGIC said HKS Silent Hi-Power are good with the high flow.

how much is the difference between a catback and a turbo back system?

turbo back is a lot more responsive and will come on boost lil bit harder. Most ppl just start with the cat back and then go front pipe & cat at the same time later down the track. Not sure how much they are now but my HKS cat back cost me $990 at the beginning of the year, so as u can see its best to take it in steps. :)

well cat-back systems consist of the exhaust set up from the catalytic converter to the cannon. turbo back refers to from turbo back so includes high flow cat, 3" dump, 3" front pipe.

you should notice better power in the high rev ranges with a turbo back system as it allows the exhaust gases to flow less restrictively. and there will be a slight/ if noticable exhaust note difference between the two.

but definitely invest in a exhaust system in the near future.

Well in that case Turbo back be the best buying for money as it will give you more power and a smoother flow,

Front pipe of r34 $249 ish Just jap, then buy a High Flow cat (depends what brand) and a muffler with pipping be around 1k for a custom Zaust

here's mine, Trust PE 2 with high flow cat and split front/dump pipe. it sounds heaps better in real life though, the video isn't the best but you get the idea.

just a tip, remove that youtube video asap. The boys in blue are known to search through public forums like this for that stuff, as well as youtube. Your number plate can be seen as clear as day. They can use that for a hoon charge, just be careful. Next time take your plates off :huh:

yeah cheers for the heads up mate, i thought they would have better things to do than watch my videos lol. but i took it down anyway, might do some editing then put it back up again. but R34P3R you should be able to find vids of pretty much all the good cat back systems on youtube. or you could just watch my bungy jump video lol it's good for a laugh.

no worries, you'd think cops would have better things to do but unfortunately they dont haha

if you every out n about filming in remote areas just leave a screwdriver or appropriate sized socket in your car to undo your plates, but i dont know much about that...

    • Hi all. I am aware there is lots of discussions about jacking points, where to lift the car and what not. But as usual just a lot of "in my opinion" and nothing definitive, and everyone does it in a different way. I want to hear from some experienced people on which points on the car it's okay/safe/recommended to lift the car using a four point hoist/lift. I will attach some images of my underbody. Sills are largely okayish, the driver side jacking point is pretty mangled though and it looks like the underfloor is slightly pushed in too, but I might be wrong. In the German Skyline forum, the consensus is to use the sidemember chassis rails in the front and the rear subframe? bushing in the rear. I know the manual says to never use the sidemember for loading but lots of folk do it and it was definitely done on my car too as they are slightly bent too. Based on the images, what points do I use to not make the already present damage worse? I'd use wood or rubber blocks to spread the load across a bigger area of course. Driver side sidemember and jacking point mangled one) https://imgur.com/a/eKjzrJX Driver side rear jacking point https://imgur.com/a/W3DWF1P Passenger side sidemember and jacking point https://imgur.com/a/65UvIJe Passenger side rear jacking point https://imgur.com/a/h3k7j53 We can also see some underbody rust but so far it all looks somewhat treatable and nothing that requires a Yoshida style restoration.
    • Have you put an aftermarket oil pressure gauge on and verified your oil pressure?   Noise being on the block, on exhaust side, how high up the block does it seem to be? It could be the VCT system getting cranky, especially if it's mainly at idle, and when warm, as that'll be your lowest point for oil pressure. Could be showing that oil passages / VCT solenoid are blocking.
    • Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers
