i put a just jap bellmouth front pipe on recently and it bolted up perfect. lined up to standard cat position without any modding. this was on an RS4s

D.

how much heat comes through to under your passenger seat now if you removed a heatsheild? as i have amps underthere and JJ haven't gotten back to me about wether any standard sheilds fit(or top half if its clamshell) :blink:

i finally bit the bullet and got a custom mandrel bent 3inch on my s2 auto... it's flippin awesome but 1st - 2nd it hits the rev limiter twice and the gear change completes at about 100... has anyone had similar problems or is it time to work on the box?

the turbo is running in high boost mode with the shorted solenoid

Theres not much talk about mufflers being used and how they go with drown. I have a RS4S with a standed dump,cat with a 3inch SS to 1 muffler from hi-tech mufflers (not a canon) and it sounds great but i just cant settle with the drowning. Im thinking of putting a hotdog in there and see what difference it makes.

+ if your warried about the heat shield on a different dump why dont you heat wrap it???

Im using a justjap 3" bellmouth dump/front pipe into a 3" gutted metal cat, bolted onto 3" catback into 3" magnaflow resonator (hotdog) into 3" straight through kakimoto 'gtr racing' muffler

only drone noticeable is at around 1800rpm

free flowing enough for 250kw@wheels - rs4 auto

Some cool info on here!

I've got a S1 Dayz eddition that came with the optional Nismo exhaust, just curious if anyone knows what the pipe diameter of the Nismo units are, I could probably take it off and measure it up but that requires some effort :nyaanyaa:

Just thinking whether it's worth replacing if it's 2.5 inch or something, or just making up some blast pipes for track/drift days.

Anyone know if it's a full system, catback, or axle back only?

Edit: Shit sorry, I thought this was an exhaust thread ... maybe we should make a sticky with something like "What exhaust are you running".

My S2 came with the Nismo exhaust, from what I was told it's a 2 1/2 inch cat back. I assume the one on the S1 is the same. I thought about just replacing the cat and dump/front pipes to make it 2 1/2 inch all the way, but after doing some reading and asking around ended up making it 3 inch all the way through and love it!

ohk cool! Thanks for that.

So what made you make the switch, what are you running now and did you notice any power improvements from the Nismo item? (I suppose you would considering you swapped the dump pipe and such).

I had initially planned on getting the front of the system through to the cat in 3 inch, and then having in joing out of the cat back down to the existing 2 1/2 inch exhaust, but after doing a bit of reading on here and talking to my tuner, I decided to go 3 inch all the way. What I was told was that it would be too restrictive having it 2 1/2 inch and I was better off having 3 inch all the way to get the best performance. I am running a HKS Hi Power cat back, but I am not sure exactly what brand hi-flow cat or dump pipe, but I'm assuming they are X-Force or something along those lines. Something decent quality without being a major brand. As far as power improvements, I did a Nistune chip, fuel pump and boost controller at the same time, so it's a bit hard to tell exactly how much difference the exhaust itself made, but with that combination and no other mods apart from a HKS pod filter, I am getting 204kw at the wheels on 10psi.

Hope that helps

How loud is that Tim? I might even make something up myself where I can use the Nismo rear muffler for street, and blast pipes for the track.

It is a lot quieter than I expected. I actually noticed very little difference in car, and even outside the car it is not that loud. I think I hear my pod filter more than my exhaust lol

Just remember a oval muffler is always going to be much more quiet than a cannon. they're notorious for noise. not to mention drone.

my setup on my gtr. std dumps, jjr down pipes. xforce cat, custom catback with xforce oval muffler with titanium tip. very quiet on idle. zero to no drone.

bumping old topic but didn't want to start another one,

looking for an cat back exhaust fro my stag, can anyone confirm skyline exhausts fit and if its just a case of changing the hangers or if its shorter?

$T2eC16FHJHQFFhnGq1ycBRyPLy,(Mg~~60_57.J

this seems to be the same shape, its off a r32 gtr.

cheers

I just had a cat back exhaust off a 4 door r32 fitted to my s2 stagea. Needed a few cuts to rotate it slightly, a section added before the rear axle to lengthen it and the hangars moved. It was Mild 3" and had no center muffler, just a varex on the end, so it was easy to modify, only cost be $100 to get fitted. Sounds great too :)

    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
    • Nah, I'm not an a-hole, ha ha!   I do like the colour match. Some of the carbon fibre wraps are quite freaking horrible. There's one a local company I know uses, and it looks damn good! Also very very expensive per metre to buy! ha ha ha It might be cheaper to respray the roof than use the good CF Wrap, ha ha!
