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....

    • Crazy how good the aero bar looks compared to the stock one
    • Yes, but you will need to rewire all the things that are different. CAS, coils, etc. Yes, but there is no IAT. What? You can use anything you like. It just has to be hooked up so that it will work.     Or are you wanting to just plug and play without having to do any thinking/work?
    • It's been a little over a decade since I bought the S15. As I did on my socials, I'll share some of my favorite pictures from over the years further below. If you haven't realised, pretty much all the pictures in my posts are ones I've taken.  In terms of updates, I don't have pictures, but I acquired a near-perfect pair of fog lights from a friend of mine, so those got swapped in for the pair I already had. As for the JZX110, I just got it back from being fixed. A few weeks back, I was on the highway when I suddenly drove over something with very little time to react. It was probably the size of a soccer ball, but it went under the car and banged into the underside pretty loudly. I pulled over and realized the fluid leaking was fuel, and of course, it was right near my exhaust. This required replacing the fuel tank. If you happen to be in the same predicament, thankfully this car shares a fuel tank with the JZS171, IS200, and IS300, so it wasn't too painful to replace. Enjoy some pictures as mentioned above, including the carnage from the fuel tank and a bonus picture I came across which shows how ridiculously shiny the Bugels are on the 110. So many more pictures I could share of the S15 but this will do for today, enjoy.
