You'll need to get it fabricated and honestly its not worth the hassle unless you are running massive twins and by massive i mean 2 big f**k offf top mounts. single 3.5" will support 750-800hp and 4" will support 1000hp.

With the space you have under the gtr running twin 3" piping will be the biggest pain in the ass ever!

I'm a boilermaker and do exhausts/ic piping as a hobbie on the side occasionally. i looked at doing it to my own car but it simply isnt worth the time money or stuff around that it'll take.

Also the weight of a twin system would be double that of a single as you'll need 2 cats 2 or 4 mufflers and a cross over pipe as well if you dont incorporate that into the mufflers.. It can be done.. but its simply not worth doing

If you can find dual Kakimoto or HKS dual dragger, they are 2x 2.5" all the way from dump pipes.

Which is roughly the same area of 3.3 inch, IIRC. Hardly worth while and I dare say be loud as hell!

But it's nice to look at it.

I picked dual dragger for cheap and I've always wanted one so it worked out alright for me. It isn't that loud down low, once you mash the loud pedal up top...

damn thats an awesome sound. I dont like the dual right next to eachother look though. was hoping to find something that splits off to each side in the back. I might have to do some custom work for this one.

I'm currently in the build of a 3inch twin system for my 32R, I got custom mufflers being built. Than I'll fab the rest of system myself. Which will be twin 3inch into a 4inch merge just before the diff.

The reason why I'm going twin 3 is because I want max ground clearance, I can run good free flowing mufflers to it is quite, and at the same time it flows heaaaaps. So my exhaust will not be a restriction what so ever with my -5s, the exhaust is the one of the main things that smuthers them.

I'll post pics once it's all complete, it prob won't be done for another month as I work FIFO so it will have to wait till I'm home again to continue on with them.

Once they done, I was thinking of building a jig for the system, and making up 4-5 of them and selling them in a GB but that won't be for awhile, it will need to be built, fitted and some dyno work done to ensure it works.

Cheers

    • 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
    • As per title.. has anyone used so far? Keen to hear results, comparisons. In the market for a new mani for my new turbo. Any issues cracking?
    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
