Hello people and how are we all today? :(

I need some help wit an after-market exhaust system for a R33 GTS-T S2

I’m after a Turbo back exhaust, have no idea were to start looking. However I’m after that “True Jap Style Exhaust Tip”… Poking out on an angle a huge 5 inch tip will do.

I just want to know which is “worth for money” APEXi, HKS or EXFORCE.

Which is better, gives more power and cost less?

And should I get for 3.5 inch turbo back or bigger if possible?

What recommendations do you guys have for a rookie? :rofl:

Thankx guys

I picked up a 3" turbo back X force exhaust for mine. Mild steel with stainless steel cannon muffler. Comes with everything you need...bolts, gaskets etc. Sounds great, not too loud.

And for $700 you cant go wrong.

if you have a desire to get really annoyed, like stuff dropping in eyes/hair, working on something thats been heated/cooled a thousand times so nothing will undo, working in tight spaces that maybe accessable if your standing and have safe lifting devices go ahead.

Me I cant get a trolley jack under mine and leave the underside to people who like it.

go to your local exhaust shop

say "g'day mate. how much for a 3-inch mandrel-bent exhaust from the turbo-back? i'm after a cannon muffler on that"

then when you get a price, go to antoher place and ask the same question... also some people might be able to recommend a place where they went and can verify some good quality work

i paid $550 for 3" cat-back in mild steel with large resonator and stainless cannon muffler. the place i went to i think has gone under (blinky's brake and exhausts). i also paid $240 for a 3" dump/front from BATMBL.

you will find that you can get a BRAND NEW exhaust custom-made exactly how you want it for less than the price of a 5 year old jap-brand exhaust that hangs so low that it scrapes along the ground...

cheers,

Warren.

    • Thanks Murray, appreciate the advice, a few things to think about now 😀 
    • After my million questions, I'll throw in my 2c now.  If I was in your shoes, I would buy the best/most modern ECU available. A Nexus S3 would fit the bill. It is highly likely that this ECU will last the life of the car, regardless of whatever ECU manufacturers develop in the future. Modern ECU's are amazing and will still be amazing in 10 or 20 years time. If you can get e85 relatively close to where you live, I would buy a flex sensor and size the injectors to run e85. I'd go a Walbro 525 fuel pump with relay wiring kit.  Turbo wise, I'd hit up HyperGear and get a pair of the biggest bolt on turbos.  Now for the safety side of things, I'd have the tuner setup the tune to be very soft/safe on 98. Then on the flex tune, a lot of the timing can be put back in on the top end (I'd run full boost on both tunes, but manipulate the power with the timing). This also has the benefit of hopefully delaying the, "bored now, need more boost" that comes with owning a modified turbo car. If you spend most of your time on the 98 tune, the few times your on e85 will hopefully stay special/fun.  The bad news. As your paying for labour and tuning, I don't think this will happen with $10,000. This might be the motivation to learn to do it yourself though, that way instead you'll have the built car and change from the $10,000
    • Cheers Duncan, on club reg and very much a weekender, don't drive it all that hard and don't intend to go overboard at any point in the future too. In my 40's and quite mature driver, just want that little bit more from it 😉 Sounds like, after ensuring everything is in good condition, ECU, Injectors, Fuel Pump and a set of turbos is likely to be my path forward. 
    • 15 years is not too long to hold onto something like that, right?
    • Hey man,   By any chance you still have sunroof for sale ?   Thanks
