Yep, mine did that. I had a f**ked muffler and a screwed resonator. Both made god-awful noises. Go and see any exhaust shop and get a 2 1/2 cat back with decent muffler and a hotdog style resonator and it'll sound sweet. Well mine does anyway ;)

If you want my honest opinion just go cat-back for a bit of noise. I have found that there is no a lot a power potential in the RB20 with out a turbo with spending crazy $$$$. It's a harsh reality which is why I saved and bought a turbo.

I had a similar problem on my old car, and it turned out to be the cover on the exhaust, between the manifold and the cat. A few screws fell of and the cover was noisy all the time. Plus, it was dented from speed humps so i straightened the prick and put some new bolts on.

Problem solved.

This may or may not be the case for you, but it doesnt hurt to check it out....

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.

      Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust

      Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.

      I agree once misfires happen it's basically worthless, but the hope is you can see what's happening in the run up to that.

      You should totally get a Brumby, and then come pick up the Subaru Liberty GTB I have here. EJ25 Turbo, 6 speed manual from the sti (just no dccd), and the good rear diff. Drop all that into a Brumby and go have fun!
