First Post. Picked Up A N/a R33.

[TommyR33]

Hey guys I just recently purchased a Nissan Skyline so why not join the forums!
I picked up a 1993 ECR33 Skyline 2 weeks ago off a elderly man for a price I couldn't refuse. The car had no roadworthy and was unregistered but I thought it was too good of a deal and I picked it up the next week!
It is
-1993
- 5 speed manual
- Rb25de
- Hicas equipped
The only modifications are a bad ass JVC 10 CD stacker and a JVC headunit with cassette player, and of course some "GENUINE" Bob Jane wheels with great tread.
Getting the car on the road was actually easier then I thought, got a unregoed permit from vicroads, took it to my mechanic, got my roady, went through the pits (which I was shitting myself over) and it was finally regoed after 5 days.

I have a question in regards to muffler. I recently picked up a HKS super drager and I want to put it on the car. It is only the diff back section and it is 3.5" piping (way to big for N/A) and 5" tip. Can a exhaust shop somehow sleeve it and chop it up to 2.5"? or could I just bolt it to the stock system and it would be okay? Cheers.

Pics for your time.The car has some paint imperfections but at this stage im not bothered.
Cheers









needs a good clean!

Seems like a nice car.

Just chuck the exhaust in and see what happens. You never know, it might be good !

Thanks mate! Yeah its great car to drive! Well tomorrow morning im taking the car in to see what the exhaust shop says.
But yeah never know it might okay since its only diff back and hopefully wont make the car sluggish, seen a few people here saying they run 3.5" from cat back on N/a lol.

Yeah it should run fine, exhaust shop should be able to make it fit with a flange.

But it'll probably drone like a mofo.

So bad news.. no exhaust shop wants to touch it as 3.5 inch inlet is just too big im now going in the direction of custom instead

Not so bad. Nice looking car - put your money towards better brakes and suspension instead.
