Hey guys, I just put the rb25de into my S13 and was thinking of welding up an r34 turbo exhaust system to it (sitting in my shed) How do you think this would go? obviously its designed for a turbo motor but by rights it should flow pretty well on an rb25de and be nice and quite? or would this just be fail?

If you're going to the trouble of cutting it up and welding etc, make a proper 2.5 inch mandrel bent system with a good muffler. If you want to keep it cheap just use lobster back bends, but do them well and it'll be just as good for the application.

Ps, a r34 exhaust won't fit an s13, not even close afaik.

i assume your talking cat back?

does ti even fit properly under the S chassis

wouldnt you just get a propper one made after going through the effort of an engine change?

The engine change was piss, its just making everything else fit. I honestly don't know if the r34 exhaust will fit (and yeah from the cat back) I haven't seen if it will fit yet.

EDIT: unrelated question, are knock sensors needed to start the engine? I cant seem to find the harness.

Seeings as it an N/A, you greatly benefit from a bit of back pressure for better low down torque, so don't go too big or it'll be all noise & no go!!!

2.5'' is too big for N/A, I'd look at 2'' as absolute maximum

A free flowing exhaust is a compromise. Maybe you could follow the Ferrari/Lambo/SLR route & have an exhaust cut out for higher RPM when it's all about flow........

    • Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners
    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
