justin911 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 hey i got the xforce turbobak full stainless steel exhaust kit for my r33 ($950 off ebay) Im very very happy with it. I didnt dyno it after we put it in but you could instatly tell a huge differance in power. It sounds great to, and its not evan that loud. looks pretty cool i guess. Apparantly xforce just make good copies of the bigname japanese brands. Id definetly get it again though, specialy for the price Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/77273-x-force-zorst/#findComment-1414087 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MsG_ChRiS Posted June 17, 2005 Author Share Posted June 17, 2005 when you got your zorst did you change the cat or did you just use the standard one?? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/77273-x-force-zorst/#findComment-1414098 Share on other sites More sharing options...
46n2 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 I have a mild steel turbo back X-force on my RB20. Sound: It's actually pretty quiet when cruising on the highway. The drone isn't intrusive - it doesn't leave your ears ringing Performance: I haven't had it tuned yet, but they claim 20kw at the treads average gain. Incomparison a CES exhaust advertise approx 40kw gain (but their systems cost a lot more) Looks: Doesn't look too bad. IMO it works and performs better than the stock exhaust, and as far as bang for buck goes, it's not too bad. The quality of the welds on mine were pretty poor. If you wanted to take the time, you could clean them up.

Babylon Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 I got mine from CRD for $1250 Im very happy with its not 2 loud and looks great heres a link in regards to performance i ran the dyno before and after http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=73469 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/77273-x-force-zorst/#findComment-1414327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
400GTST Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 I had the full stainless system on my r33. A bit droney.i found out when i took it back off it was restricting the turbo due to the fact that the flange to turbo are not the same shape and overlaps inside the zorst. As for the bloke on ebay that sells them.... dont get me started!

justin911 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 ya the dude on ebay who sells them... not sure whats going on there.. basicaly EVERYONE complained about how slow/barely existent he is in all his sales. I paid for the exhaust, and I emailed and emailed and he never replied. then after a week i rang him up and he was pretty responsive. Came a week after he said it would.. but hey it came in the end The kit for the r33 etc comes with the front pipe thing that connects to the turbo, cat, another long pipe, muffler, a silencer, and all the bolts and crap. Mine doesnt have that overlapping with the turbo problem. I dont think theres much of a diff between $1000 full stainless style xforce kit, and a $2000 apexi/HKS one etc...

46n2 Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 the dude on ebay didn't answer my messages promptly, so I just sourced mine elsewhere.

MYSTR33 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 i got turbo back on my r33, from ruf performance was suppose to be mild steel one but bankstown mufflers said it was full stainless steel so maybe they put on the wrong one? and it' only cost me $700.. great exhaust not too loud performance up a fair bit but yet to dyno will do once power fc is in..

Buddy Club R33 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 I've got an Xforce catback and it's too loud. I've been EPAed and it turned out to be 99 db. The power gain was great but your probably better off getting a fujitsubo if your going to spend $1000. By the way it has a N1 drift style muffler which looks pretty damn good.

lwells Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 I dont think theres much of a diff between $1000 full stainless style xforce kit, and a $2000 apexi/HKS one etc... Except you can get brand new Japanese cat-backs for about the $1000 mark, so the X-forces don't look like such great value to me? LW.

46n2 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 yeah but the xforce is turbo-back, so as far as flowing more out the rear end on a budget is concerned, they're not so bad Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/77273-x-force-zorst/#findComment-1419119 Share on other sites More sharing options...
