i found the best way to get ppl to notice me when i am coming down the street is too add a restrictor which will give off AWESOME cooler noises....best to use a potato and push it into your exhaust. Try not to let any of the exhaust fumes escape cos you are trying to aim for the pressure build up. Trust me...it worked for me!

instead of all that noise u want.. bcos its very possible it would attract the cops... why not put big shiny "GTR" stickers all over ur car.. That way ppl will know its a gtr just from the shiny stickers

I have a brotec se8 fitted on my sr20 in the cefiro.

Before having it people just thought it was a camry.. now I have people asking me if it's got a GTR engine or if it's a JGTC car!!

Good choice CC - the SE8 version of the Brotech includes the hertz regulator control module that can be used to adjust your cam timing in car while you drive. With the HRCM at its peak load, HP can be realistically increased by 25% instantly - even with stock cams. Works especially well on rotary powered vehicles.

i wont give you shit like everyone else "seems" to be

if you want induction noise your going to HAVE to put pods on.

the good news is that in most states one intake mod is allowed, usually either front mount/airpods, but considering GTR's already have a front mount you should be able to change pods without a defect risk.

I have taken my car through vehicle inspections in SA twice with pods on.

if your really worried you might be risking a defect call the RTA/email them in your state and ask "can i put airpods on my car, lots of other people have them but im not sure if they are illegal?"

Please don't get an emulator. You have a GTR man. A REAL twin turbo monster. People who don't have turbos pretend they have stuff.. you don't need to pretend anything.

I heard that sound clip of someone that said they had some brotech system, sound disgusting, maybe just recording quality....

And while we are at it, please don't put a bonnet scoop on it either! Or HUB CAPS!!!!!

hmm i dano,

brotech's work alot better with bonnet scoops.. my mate has one on his GTR, he only has a small scoop, but is upgrading to a much bigger one soon. He is also upgrading to the newer brotech, you can flick between 2.6ltr and 3.ltr on the roll! B) forget the name of the new one tho

I heard with the new one you can also swap between your big single turbo for 3ltr mode or your high flowed twins on 2.6ltr mode, on the roll of course.

Did I hear correctly????????

Ali-turko, dont mean to offend, but people like you are the reason people think skyline drivers are wankers.

what's real funny about this whole BOV/no BOV argument that repeats itself here is that the no BOV crew think it's cool to have the "pigeon" sound, which , correct me if I'm wrong, is just as attention grabbing as some of the bovs on the market, so before pointing the finger saying people that run and like the sound of BOV's calling them ricers etc, take a look at yourselves! Dont get me wrong, I hate those stupid "ultrasonic happy joy bus brake 3ssqvrt" Bov's as much as the next guy, but I run a greddy type s BOV that is not designed as such to whistle, but is just a by product of it's construction, and something which I do happen to like the sound of. It's not intrusive, and doesn't make people I'm passing think something is wrong with my car, it's just enough to know it's there. My car also came with a pod filter which means if I do the plumb back option, it ends up sounding like afore mentioned bus brake BOV, which I hate the sound of so dearly. I would actually like to quiet mine down a bit because I am very conscious of the volume of the sucking sound you get from the pod filter, but I'm not really sure if there is any option other then to revert back to a standard airbox.

So, bnr, after all that, the easest was to get a bit more noise that i've seen (which i think is a bit silly and cheap looking, but none the less) is to drill a whole bunch of holes in your airbox on the dirty side of the air filter. you could also remove the resonating chamber from the airbox (the one that usually goes in to the inner guard - also kind of a cold air intake - it's designed to reduce sound emissions).

Honestly, what's wrong with having a turbo and wanting it to sound more like a turbo?

    • FWIW a lot of the local owners that do a big build tend to have cars that are perpetually broken. 
    • I just got this system but haven’t installed yet I got a Moroso sealed box (defect reasons) which will be set up same as their pic The quality is high grade, the correspondence I had with the owner (former head designer for Rockford Fosgate) was unbelievable, guiding me with what I needed. Even told me not to buy some things as it could be sorted in a different way at his loss. Just a bit of a bite with the exchange rate and don’t purchase gear in 1 hit that goes over $1,000 au, lol I forgot!  
    • Thanks mate for that reply. Very helpful.    it’s a 2022 400R so would most likely lose those features as you say.     I did a quick compare of a rv37 nav and heading for sale in Japan to q50 model. I’ll pop pics below. Seems  Japan spec head into top, nav unit second below it   below pic Q50 aud delivered     differences seem to be Aus delivered has a different plug top left hand side of head unit- not sure what and where it goes.   and nav unit Japanese tv37 had an extra plug put    Again I’m really not sure what each of these differences mean!       the actual plugs on a v37 and q50 screens look identical on both screens… pics below for comparing. (One screen was is a us delivered one) but should be same gps signals etc as Australia.    If it were as simple as swapping a nav unit from q50 aud delivered im interested -just want to figure out what the missing plug is for before spending big $ on a second hand part for it to not work, and I guess with the head unit, if the band expander does the job (I got a 20mHz so should get the range I’m after) so should narrow my issue down to nav unit only.  I’d love to know what the extra cable on rv37 does and if I eliminate that part what it’ll do to the setup,    and also, if I can figure out what that head unit plug difference is, what does that cable do and where does it got can it be altered or re-plugged?! Excuse my ignorance what is ACP/AA, what does that stand for? (Apple car play? Android air play)? so If I swapped head units to save using a band expander, I’d likely lose those better features to have an oem Unit operational. Better to use a band expander and retain AirPlay options and newer version of head unit     provably best to band expand it, and focus on the nav unit. th isn’t  a big deal/ would be cool to have it working  from what I can tel we use a PAL Signal and Japan uses a NTSC signal  I don’t know if there’s a co better or if the screen only reads NTSC, or if it’s the tv module that needs replacing… no big deal don’t need it but more of a curiosity thing on that!   Thanks for the info re tyre sensors, helpful and great to know.  I was reading the online manual off Japan website and it seemed to make it sound more confusing than it is  I guess a rim replacement would require the sensors to be moved to a new rim to carry that option over?!     Thanks for the info regarding diagnostic mode. I appreciate your help mate. Trying to brainstorm here to find a solution to get as much gadgets as I can working! I plan to get my local Nissan tech to have a look too who used to be at an Infiniti dealer back in the day to see if any thing they have or idea can find a soliton. But hoping anyone here has gone down the same route to make life easier!!   i guess identifying the cable/plug differences and what they do would be a great way of finding out if the units are transferable    thanks again 
    • No idea about the remote start part. If the V37 nav is anything like other Nissan JDM vehicles, you can't get the factory Japanese nav working in australia, a card from a different car almost certainly won't work, those cards are usually matched to the serial number of the DCU.  You could be possibly swap out the components from a AuDM Q50 to get it working, but if this is a new model (2021+) 400R, then you will lose the newer features like ACP/AA.  That said, if you have ACP/AA, just use google maps.. I assume a band expander would be required to get the local radio stations, but don't forget the Japanese FM band is narrower than ours, so you still might not be able to receive all Australian stations. I can't see any reason the tyre pressure sensors won't work here, there is the sensor unit inside the rim and the receiver nearby in the wheel well.  I have never had to change the batteries on my 2015 Q50, so I assume they last quite a while.  A straight battery change shouldn't need them to be re-registered as they are the same unit, that should only be required if you replace a sensor with a new one.   Word of warning, if you ever go into the 'secret' diagnostics mode on the main screen, DO NOT EVER do a 'reset' in this menu, it will erase all of your model specific data in the DCU and you will need a trip to a dealer to re-program it all, which would be particularly painful being an import.  This applies to the AuDM Q50 too.
    • There is a known issue with the mix door motor on the Q50 which causes these symptoms, not sure if it is common on the Y51 though.
