No the exhaust is different I believe the dump pipe is the same so from turbo to cat will fit but the rest won't fit at all

how sure are you mate, as i am getting big numbers for both sides of the argument and dont know who to agree with dont want to buy something then its wrong.

This is really doing my head in now lol, i am new to skylines and tbh i am finding alot of people know alot about nothing, no disrespect to people who do, i have shops and companies telling me one thing about fitments etc etc then people with skylines another then mechanics saying different again, all i want is a bloody full exhaust sytem from front to back how bloody hard can that be lol......

I have the chance to buy 3 at the moment one is from a r33 but only cat back and doesnt include cat, other is a full system but came off an r32, the guy says i just need to change the hangers at the back, apart from that it will fit, and the other well i dont even know if he knows what it is lol......

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SOME SHED SOME GOOD QUALITY LIGHT ON THE SUBJECT. i have been trying to find exhaust layouts from all the skylines and cannot seem to find anything...... sorry for the rant, but in need of one asap.

Thx

Karl

An exhaust is an exhaust.. Skyline exhausts aren't some magical system.. Simply go to a mechanic shop, discuss with them an exhaust that suits your needs.. get them to install it.. Done.. No piss farting around trying to get exhausts from another model to fit.. You either want it done correctly and not "be over it" or you can f**k around looking for a cheap system and have the headaches to go with it..

If the exhaust shop says they can't help with your skyline then they just dont know what they are doing/ don't want your work.. so just go to the next exhaust shop.. I see no reason why they wouldnt be able to do it..

I am 100% sure the cat back from an R32 will not fit a R33 without chopping and rewelding it at a few points

the r33 is longer and also the r32 has a rear mounted petrol tank where as the r33 is behind the back seat.

You could buy a ceap exhaust off eBay for like $300 which would fit and then the dump pipe would be about $170

your going to end up spending atleast $200 bucks to fit and weld the r32 exhaust with a mechanic. But jf you buy the one that fits the r33 you could install it yourself it's not that hard

      RB25 S2 Idles but doesn't want to rev

      By Trilbyte · Posted

      No intention of driving the car the way it's set up now, just wanting to make sure I haven't made any mistakes along the way so that the tune can go smoothly, I don't want to waste anyone's time with stupid issues. And of course I intend to get it towed to the dyno in a completed state 😅 I have the base fuel pressure with the vacuum disconnected set at about 40psi, which I believe is at least relatively close to stock fuel pressure, maybe I'll have a fiddle with the reg and see what happens. For all I know I could be wasting my time with this and I should just plumb it in and see what the tuner reckons. I just find it a bit strange that it seems to be under so much load just free revving, but maybe that's just a result of the turbo slowing down the exhaust gasses and making a restriction in the flow, with no boost to compensate.

      The boy just hit up google translate and it worked a treat, he said step one was "please urinate with precision and elegance", he then sent me the correct translation  I get some new loctite for the small fixtures tomorrow and get some "dort" going after that 🤣

      Right, so is the fuel pressure the same as it was previously? If not, well, it's not going to work well. I can understand the theory I assume you are going for, which is: "Run it N/A, and if I have the original AFM, and same amount of fuel and intake air as previously, the fact there's a turbo in my exhaust should still make it run" Which it... might? Provided you don't actually change how much air or fuel is going into the car.. or getting out. But if you have changed that, all bets are off. What is the purpose to even have the car run this way? To get it to a tuner? And if the goal is to limp it to a tuner, you're still going to what - plumb up a whole intercooler system and new intake in the parking lot out front before your tune......?

      Haha yea it's a bit of a weird setup at the moment, just wanted to make sure I sorted out any headaches before dyno day. At the moment I've changed the exhaust manifold, turbo and downpipe, 460lph fuel pump and rising rate reg as well as the previously mentioned headstuds and gasket. The nistune was already mapped for the car as it was and drove around for a few months no worries. The plan is to run flex fuel hence the big pump, which I've wired direct to the battery through a relay to avoid voltage issues.

      Um. Was the ECU the same as the one previously there? I know R33's needed R32 GTST ECU's or other tomfoolery to run Nistune. This is such a wild setup. Most people would plumb in the turbo then not drive the car (i.e tow it to a tuner). What's actually changed since it last ran?
