Equal Length Front Pipe Made In Sydney?

[Hadouken]

jeez. Just kiss already.

Doesnt matter which way you put it, a equal length front pipe is the best sounding RB26. But if you go single then it sounds mental on its own.

Some say a equal length is beneficial to allow the gasses to flow evenly out to the tailpipe and inturn helps with shuffling. I can definitely say that a equal length front pipe helps with shuffling. My midori front pipe shuffled like a fair bit up inclines. But with the mines front pipe I do not experience the same level of shuffling.

But biggest point here is sound.

The end.

That is not the purpose of this topic and if you go and google I am sure you will find many more theories on the differences.

Fatz has a set of Racepace ones for sale at the moment.

[Mick_o]

Hahaha shit got srs quik!

But in all srs gimme all ya monies and i will make you 1 so it "makes your car sound better"

[Hadouken]

Do the racepace ones actually have better ground clearance than the others?

[Piggaz]

They hug the body VERY well. I've never bumped them on the ground. They generally won't do an exhaust unless they have THE car they're going on... So they can get the fit spot on. Not sure if that's changed but that was the story a few years ago.

thanks Piggaz they said they could send me one I just wanted to see if anyone in sydney could make one just as good if not better so I can make sure it fits snug

In a couple of months, I will be looking at getting a set made .

If you haven't bought by then, I'll let you know how I go.

Does anyone know how much is a racepace equal length front pipe?

[scotty nm35]

The unequal length twin 3 inch system on the 33 gtr I have here sounds awesome, if only the 3L bottom end didn't make it sound like a VL.

You seriously think a few extra inches in a front pipe will make it sound any different?

About $1200.

That was a few years ago. Give Chris a call.

Yes,

Lol, you believe a youtube sound clip? That is obviously not just swapping the front pipes. It's the mufflers that change the note, not the pipes.

I agree, it makes little difference to the price, although there are many more bends and you will be sacrificing flow for this equal length nonsense. I like to tuck my systems up, not have them hanging down lower. Each to their own I guess.

You made them?

This was Daz's car, he already had a twin 3 inch system, I am just making it work with the taller block.

I have done a few twin 3 into 4 inch systems, usually tapering back to 3.5 at the mid muffler.

My car came with the usual unequal length front pipe. I changed it to an equal length one (no other changes to the car) and the sound changed (used to sound like my old neighbour's 6cyl BMW, now sounds like a "real GT-R" ).

[scotty nm35]

If some of you gtr owners are that purist, perhaps the stock exhaust is the go? I am sure Nissan will still have a few in storage.

The unequal length sidepipes on the Gibson GTR I worked on had a beautiful note at 8000 revs.

[niZmO_Man]

Fact is, unequal vs. equal length front pipes produce different sound. I know I heard it on my car. Doesn't mean it sounds any less meaner, just different.

Here's another youtube vid.

Performance wise? probably no difference. Practical wise, unequal is better, my equal length hangs pretty low (lowest part of the car) and has copped some dents.

[scotty nm35]

Every bend you place in an exhaust limits flow to some extent, more so than straight through mufflers.

Valve timing adjustment... Well that will change the note for sure.

I am terribly sorry that I used evidence to give you an example. Or maybe the fact that I also changed front pipes to equal length ones and the note changed of the exhaust. Oh and didn't touch the timing nor manifolds. Now you are calling me simple minded? Give me some credit at least.

But I don't know why we are arguing. You are clearly wrong and now it seems you are just hell bent on being right.

That is not the topic of discussion here.
