the imported stuff, the put big dollars into reseach 2 make there products the best ( no restriction ) an thats whats on my mind... EG if the local 1 costs $400 an will give me 15kws and the imported 1 costs $600 an it gives me 18kws i would rather pay the the $200 diffrents

Ok, I'll put it to you like this. I was running 190kw at the rear, I had a retune and put out 205kw at the rear. I drive the car ALL the time and could not feel ANY difference. Now the difference in dump pipes is so minimal except for maybe top end and you'd probably find as you stated that it's under 10kw difference. I know what I'd be doing :thumbsup:

Just some cost saving tips, not trying to put you off. I had the same drama's and I've used ALL top name Japanese parts on my car eg. Nismo, ARC, Apexi etc but on the dump pipes I was reading a lot of info and found it to be of little concern. Is your car GTR or GTS-T? ;)

Ah sorry just noticed it was GTR, I've heard some interesting info about the dump pipes on GTR's and that unless your running high end mods that there is little gain to be had for $$ value, better of with front pipes etc but it's worth doing a search on!

ive seen in books my engine (rb26dett) punch out 400kws with stock internals....but when i speak to some tunners they say replace the internals at about 320kws/ 340kws

so i want to get info on tunning

    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
    • Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.
    • People don't always want builds that are overly expensive, or have engineering/registration/insurance issues and head aches that come with them Whilst big dollar builds, and complicated stuff is interesting to watch, there is only a tiny % of people who would actually use this information, or have the spare finances to drop on said builds, whereas the buy a cheap(ish) cool car, and make it better, with a average budget, that the average Joe or Jane could achieve will always be a winner in my opinion 
    • Bit of a thread revival, you mentioned wanting a bit more top end before, do you regret not going with the 1.01?
    • It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
