Hi Guys,

I would really appreciate the help.

I am looking to purchase a Trust Power Extreme II Cat back with the BATMBL combination.

If any people out there who have a PEII setup, would you be able to tell me if its loud in the cabin as well as outside? I prefer to not have the cops pulling me over all the time.

Please do let me and others know what your opinions are on the Trust PEII catback exhaust.

Thanks fellas.

I've got Michael's dump pipe and a PEII on my 33 GTST. It's quite quiet for it's size. Really nice note, and not a droney exhaust.

As for fitting, everything bolted straight up. Although the centre muffler seemed to be quite close to the rear driveshaft, so I had a spacer put on to make the exhaust sit a bit lower.

Apart from that, I love it! :/

Are you ordering it from Nengun? Their prices look pretty good, even with $400 shipping.

Shipping exhausts is about $400? Damn - I almost bid on a Nismo cat-back on Yahoo Japan auctions the other day but was unsure about the shipping costs....

At that price its worth ditching the cat back and just getting the brand name muffler and fabricating the piping over here. Plus you could get it done stainless over here with a better looking hotdog resonator and it would be a great system overall. Cheaper than shipping from Japan.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for all your feedbacks. Much appreciated.

I checked out Nengun and he has got R33 PE II for ~ $580 + ~ $337 for shipping = $917 and may take upto or more than 5 days to get delivered.

I have managed to find a source in Melbourne that can provide brand new Trust PE II for $910. I suppose "saving is still a saving".

Let me know if you guys are interested or if you know anyone who could be interested in this.

Thanks guys.

:D

Yep. that is so true. Atleast you can rock up to Autobarn and talk to them face to face.

I have been emailing Nengun for the past week and he hasnt even gotten back to me about prices, costs.

I was looking to get a Fujitsubo Legalis R through a guy for my GTT. He ended up sending the GTR one and still has not replied to any one of my emails.

Recently got the Fujitsubo Super Legalis R on my r33 gts25t, personally i stilll think its too loud compared to stock, hey Razorsharp, need to meet up with you some time to compare, i know on idle the Fujitsubo is loudish, i haven't revved my car yet because still braking in the engine so can't tell you what it sounds like on full throttle.

i use to have an Apexi N1 and it was VERY LOUD, ahahh too loud for my liking, but i've got high flow cat and custom front pipe and alot of other mods (forged pistons, high flow head etc etc) that could affect the noise level as well, BUT personally i'll prefer the Trust PE2, from experience on a s15 and other ppl's opinion everyone said its nice and quiet.

my 2 cents

Yeah, thats the impression i had when i looked at the pics of. It has a pretty big resonator. I m really not a big fan of the cat-pipe-muffler solutions, too loud on idle.

I ended up talking to Autobarn and got it from them. Thanks razor. :)

If anyone is interested in the PE2, i would be more than happy to organise group buy. I can have a word with Autobarn and get some good prices. Shipping costs from Japan and then the waiting is extremely annoying.

You're right - the N1 catback is same price as the PE2 and the N1 muffler comes out at an angle. I hate that look.

RedBaron: Do autobarn have stock of these PE2? I wonder if they could get a catback in for an R34 GTR?

      How much roughly to convert stock r32gtr to single high mount turbo + ecu and tune

      By The Bogan · Posted

      As an ex-skyline owner Going off how these things are now "modern classics", I would keep the twins and just "refresh" bits that are required for reliable power and have a car you can take out for a cruise whenever you get the itch As a idiot who cannot leave things alone Going deep into the "rabbit hole" is a easy thing to do, as previously mentioned, once you start it becomes a slippery slope, wirh lots of supporting mods, and possibly rebuilds, and unless you have a bottomless pit of funds, the car can spend most of its life sitting in the garage,  broken, waiting for parts, or building more funds For a classic like a R32 GTR Basically, a reliable OEM+ refresh, that isn't a broken garage queen, is alot better than a car that you build, then break, then fix, then break again And it isn't just the engine you need to worry about, these beasties are getting on in age, and all parts are getting, and have got, expensive, the days of picking up cheap replacement engines and other driveline parts are well and truly over The funds not spent on going a single with quality parts, and with all the other other bits required to make it happen, could be spent on refreshing alot of other parts A wise man once said "If you cannot afford 2 GTR's, you cannot afford 1", I also believe he said this about 20 years ago when you could pick up a clean R32 GTR up for around $20k My advice for a R32 GTR (the one and only true Godzilla in my mind) is to think holistically about the whole car, the body, the power train, the suspension, the brakes, and the driveline SAU is a wealth of knowledge with decades of Skyline experience,  from stock, to OEM+, to modified to varying degrees, to full on or weekend or dedicated racecars, as well as full on money pits that rarely leave their garage Treat the old girl nice and give her what she deserves, you are a lucky man to own such a classic car

      Any feedback on GReddy Turbine Kit T620Z in r33 GTST/RB25DET?

      For that price you could buy the hypergear turbo (big fan as I run one) and the Haltech ECU..

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By R3N3 · Posted

      +1 for the Elite 2500. Get some new knock sensors while you are at it (pretty cheap), look up the TAARKS Nissan knock sensor kit. You may also want to get new coils (R35gtr) while your at it (assuming your on stock ones), as they are a liability. Mine started right up and idled fine on the base map. Also go MAP over MAF, as said above, Haltech make this super simple right out the box. Another fanboy of DBW here, Outsider Garage from your neck of the woods make some nice conversion gear for the R33 (that’s where I got some of my gear from).
