Hi All,

So I finally received my new car earlier this week and am a very proud new owner.

OK, so the very first change for the car has been replacing the Tomei Ti exhaust.

It is just far to loud for the street and I also prefer the look of a normal oval muffler that exists straight out.

I ordered in a HKS Super Turbo catr back from RHD Japan as it has the same size pipe work as the Tomei Ti but larger mufflers, so in theory, I should getter better noise suppression with the same flow levels.

I still have to get the car back to Racepace for a few power runs on the dyno as this will tell the true story as to whether the flow, and power levels, remain unchanged with the new exhaust.

So the car went up on stands in the backyard and the swap over was done. You have to love the true bolt on fitment of Japanese gear, makes these backyard jobs much easier.

Here are some photos from the swap over...

One thing that has been frustrating me since getting the car is the fumes from the Oil Catch Can, they are really quiet bad.

Apparently RB26's with Cams gets a bit this way when the Catch Can vents to atmosphere.

So I wanted to set it up to re-circulate, but after looking at the outlet where the air filter is I found a problem...

  • The outlet is 40mm
  • The re-circulate inlet on the Greddy intake piping is 16mm

...so I was going to get the 40mm outlet welded up and a new, smaller outlet fitted, but I am short on money and time, so worked out a way around it.

The parts I bought to do this are...

  • 38mm Radiator hose with a 90 degree bend in it
  • Copper reducer 38mm to 16mm
  • 4 hose clamps
  • 2 meters of 16mm heater hose

What I did was cut a 90 degree bend from the radiator hose then, using the hose clamps, connected the reducer.

I then connected the 16mm heater hose to the small end of the reducer,

Then I fitted it all up and bingo, no more smell, it is great!!

Here are some photos...

fantastic car mate, that is definately the full banana

from just the pic seems like the HKS exhaust is stainless steel with a titanium tip - where as the Tomei unit is a full titanium unit with a cannon which would be why you would be getting the full theater of noise

thanks for sharing such a beast - keen on more pics (interior!)

Thanks for the kind words.

Here are a few pictures of the interior.

They are not very good photos, I need to get some of it since getting a good clean.

Here are a few randoms I took when the car was up on stands.

I removed the front bar to get a good look at it and check everything was OK prior to road worthy and registration.

Curious, what auction grade was this car from Japan?

I am the 3rd owner of this car in Australia, from what I understand it has been in the country for at least 3 years now

I am unsure of the grade it was when first imported, or even whether it was standard or modified.

Would be interesting to know though.

Want the front pipes!

Thought the cooler duct was a brake duct. Interesting.

Yes, the front pipes are rare as hens teeth, love them!!

The brake ducts are integrated into the front lip (above the diffuser), there is an inlet on each side of the lip. There is not any pipe work directing air to them actual calipers though, but that would be a nice addition - Super GT style set up.

Here is how the air is directed...

I found this, which is a factory option (unsure if it was for the 32, 33 or 34) but it may be a good, easy modification to do in order to feed the calipers some more fresh air.

is the interior black? isnt vspecII supposed to be black interior. Dont know if my eyes are playing tricks on me...

Yes, interior is black, they are crap photos taken in bad light.

I will get some better ones tomorrow.

Fantastic looking car mate and tastefully modded.

I have the front bar brake ducts on my car and they have dedicated pipe work from them to the front rotors. My rotors have a braket on the back with a metal ring that ducting can be hose clamped to - the ducting runs along the caster rod (tied on with cable ties) and than onto a collector attached to the lower front bar. I don't know if mine is the stock set-up or not, but yours doesn't appear to have the metal ring for attachment so i'd say it isn't

My gtr is currently in transit between states, otherwise i would grap some photo's for better explanation as it would be fairly simple to make up the ring bracket and add the ducting.

This car is an absolute beauty ! The parts list is to die for :)

That nismo oil cooler duct is friken fantastic....actualy the whole car friken is !!

Thanks.

Looks great Shaun lots of money has been spent on a this late model r34gtr glad it all worked out for you

Thanks.

Nice set up, certainly not standard.

It would be interesting to see it, especially how the section is attached to the actual caliper.
