how long have u had the car tho coz the older the exhaust gets the louder it can become as my m8 found out who got epa'd a while back n it was fine then this time last year he got pulled over at the springnats n he got done for having a too loud exhaust...

so he made some crazy thing that he shoved in his exhaust to quieten it down just for the epa test to say that he fixed it and away he went with a quiet exhaust untill he pulled the silencer out!! no one's picked him up for being to loud since then

hmmmmm if urs is 104 i wonder what mine would be :P

i might take it to a testers and see what noise its puting out cause i was 2ks from home the other day and my cousin was outside having a cig nd heard me coming haha.

Good timing... my exhaust failed my car getting Engineered for the 2nd time today. Ive got the standard dump pipe on the Rb20 turbs, then a 3" front pipe, 2.5" cat (not punched out), which then goes via a 2.5" system to a middle muffler/resonator and finally to my end can. Ive even put a flange in with metal welded into the middle of it and it still wont pass.

Im thinking... 1.25" standard Series 3 Bluebird mufflers are going in so the car is super silent and drives like a slug.

JK

Mines got 3" straight through. No resonators, no mufflers, not cats.

Which is why its not registered yet.

Its seriously a deafening roar. Heap heaps louder than my 13B extend port rx7, which is why its not registered either :D

BTW. Anyone got a "legal" exhaust 4sale?

How is the exhaust when you cruise around? Does it drone in the car a little?

I have a full 3" system with a large straight through rear muffler and a large middle resonator.

Its loud on WOT but cruising and light acceleration is very quiet I think.

Driving next to the car (my other half driving) with my window up I can't hear the car.

I was in quick fit in hornsby today getting some stuff done to the ceff. I scoped out a full 3" system, inc dump / high flow cat for $1500 installed (and epa untouchable).

He was a nice enough guy, as soon as I told him I knew a few other ceffy / silvia / cefiro owners he got even nicer i'm sure i could sort out a group price if a few people were keen...

I'm not keen at $1500 just yet, but if we could get it down to around $1200 - 1300 I'd go through with it in a month or two...

dude yours would be off the scale at high rpm LOL!
hmmm... yours would be like 150db fu(k you zorst is loud!!!

i might start another thread with a "place ur bets" type deal lol

winner gets a prize :) do a closest to it without going over price is right type deal lol

i wouldnt doubt the 104 reading... what rpm was it tested at??

my gfs soarer was tested at 3200rpm with a 106db output LOL

wonder why its been defected 4 times and epad twice hahaha

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
