Ok folks, I have an r33 gts-t.

Current exhaust mods are:

- Bellmouth 3inch dump/front pipe

- Xforce 3 inch cat (apparently, came with car)

- 3 inch stainless mandral bent system which also came with car. (it is jasma approved, so its quiet, one huge muffler at the rear that goes 3inch in then splits into two pipes inside and then back out with a single 3inch again, middle muffler is same brand but smaller about the size of a shoe box)

the mufflers appear so say K&H on them, never heard of them?

The car flows great, good performance, cant complain but its too quiet!

It literally makes almost no noise. It is completely drained out by the induction noise.

RB25s have a good note and I would like to get some of that without being too loud and offensive obviously.

Recommendations for a good sensible note? remove rear muffler for a cannon? different rear muffler, no rear muffler etc?

thanks

i would but its all welded, beautiful system. It was a novelty to have it that quiet but truly it makes no noise, no different to stock system. I was thinking have the rear muffler changed to the flange (half way between middle and rear muffler) so I can change back if needed?

Not looking for police attention just a nice, crisp but still reasonably quiet exhaust note

i have a jasma fujutsubu canon and just a hotdog in my 3.5inch system, and its as loud as it can get before going over the allowed db, im getting a 3 inch bellmouth and highflow cat (i have stock dump/front and cat) so it will louden it up a bit! cos im after a bit more noise to, so to answer your question, since u have a similar system to mine, i think taking out the center muffler and get a hotdog (if you dont already have one) should make it sound nice.

Just get the centre muffler cut out and a straight piece welded in.

Ok sounds good. Would be cheapish too. What about this rear muffler, would it be restrictive? the 3inch in 3inch out but with the twin pipes running through it? its a huge muffler. ill try get a pic. doing the centre would be cheaper than the rear (less bends) Also I could keep my current tip which I dont mind

check out my for sale thread (in sig) for my old exhaust. unique and mildly sounding. :D enough of the sales pitch.

i got a custom 3 inch made up with a straight through muffler and thats it. same sort of sound from my old one just deeper and louder. when it opens up ~4500+ it really starts to roar. i frukin love it... my petrol seems to be draining somewhere.... ;)

has anyone got a 3 inch system with a high flow cat and only one big muffler, what did you think if so?

3 inch dump pipe high flow cat and lukey turbo muffler 3in 3 out. no police attention but loud enough and seems to flow enough

CONS! the $$$$$$$$$$ Worth of Ass Raping you will receive if you get caught.

yeah wont be getting a de-cat.

I wonder if just removing the centre muffler and replacing with a straight pipe would sound good? The rear muffler looks quite big and has a twin chamber type design. K&H brand. Might be a good way to go, wont cost much either i figure. thoughts?

IMO then you are very silly to change it.

If it's quiet now, then its probably only just legal.

Changing it wil mean you are then over the dB limit almost certainly - I'm yet to see a single muffler system pass.

So you'll end up having to change back for EPA defect reasons anyway.

Stealth & silent is the new black in Vic, it's sadly the only way you can enjoy a Import with relatively low hassle.

Having it loud just simply is not worth the heartache, anyone who's battled the EPA for years (like myself), would most likely agree.

    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
