hey guys i was wondering what size exhaust would be best for my n/a r34? 2 & 1/4 .. 2 & 1/2 ??
would extractors be a gain or worth it?

would it be worth getting a hi flow cat ??
im looking for power increase i know that not enough back pressure can have power loss...

help is much appreciated!! :)

thanks in advance.

regards, Giuseppe

.... Oh god, it's one page back just look.

I'll make it simply, the exhaust is a waste of time for powahhhh it's just for noise wank factor.

2 1/2 inch with a twin tip muffler at the back and a single resonator... It'll be loud and droney have fun

Use the search button. This is the second incredibly pointless and numerously answered thread you have started. Use the search button or go through a few pages. The N/A section is basically 5 questions asked 200 times.

Exhaust = wank factor. End of story. N/a twincam skylines sound like crap anyway. They rasp, they drone, they have a terrible throaty noise in the low revs and have will not impress anyone. They will sound better with a stock exhaust, trust me. If you're so adamant about noise, then put an aftermarket pod filter enclosed in an airbox. The intake noise is more than enough noise and the car will sound better then if it has an exhaust on it.

Put a varex rear muffler when you are around town and cruising on the HWY. RB doesn't sound that great when driving "normally" (under 3000rpm), sounds similar to an old Falcon. Sounds awesome when at higher revs though.

But yeah +1 for stock

I'm running from the extractors back: 2.75" mandrel bent piping, hi flow 100 cell cat, resonator and a kakimoto muffler, (not a cannon).


It's sounds pretty quiet at idle and has the traditional RB sound from 3500rpm and below but once I go higher you can tell thats its definitely an N/A. (Sad face).



I've had comments on it that it does sound alright on the highway and when I give it the berries as well. (On track or private road of course.)



It makes cracks and pops from time to time too which I like as well :)

Stock system will reduce thy raspyness leaving a quiet car with intake noise which is the only noise that will sound good on your car.

According to you

No, I'm fairly sure that's fact actually.

According to you

Well you must be a minority then if you find the sound of an n/a skyline's exhaust note pleasing. Like alot of straight 6 BMW's, twincam RB motors are awfully raspy and droney in n/a form. The only real way to counteract it is to have a quiet exhaust system, or even better stock. Instead of putting up with the horrible raspy drone from an n/a, ive found it more enjoyable being able to cruise in peace and quiet. If I want noise, then I will get a pod filter in a box. Plant the car and all of a sudden it becomes brutally loud and has a nice throaty intake sound that believe you me, with a QUIET exhaust can actually be heard a hundred or so meters in front of the car. Intake noise is always drowned by loud exhausts, people dont know what they are missing out on imo lol.

Chicks get wet when they hear the mighty sound of my pod filter when i punch the throttle. This is on my 1998 mazda 121 metro. And thats before they find out my wheels are infact JDM mazda mx-5 enkei alloys!

Offset >40 with brake clearance makes the wimminz moist ;)

No, I'm fairly sure that's fact actually.

So you've heard my car before have you?

I wouldn't drive one if I didn't like the sound of it. Don't like it? Then don't get one. Simple

I can cruise in peace and quiet too. The sound of the RB is my peace and quiet.

True story!

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
    • And half of them have been converted to turbos.
