Muffler Stolen In South-west Brisbane

Hi all,

Some fool crawled under my r33 gts-r (na), unbolted and took off with my muffler; I was parked at Doolandella on friday night for a few hours. The guy prolly lives near there since I go there a fair bit on the weekends. It a pretty rare muffler so I’d like to locate it if possible, it’s a Trust, mild steel (not stainless steel) with a 4inch outlet (not sure), sorry no pics of it. You might have seen me driving along the Centenary HWY to and from UQ St Lucia on the weekdays. I’m a poor ass science student doing my pHD and I really loved that muffler. I’m currently not driving my skyline since I can’t afford to get a new muffler; does anyone have a stock muffler that they would like sell/give away? Anyway if anyone notices my old muffler, can you post up where you saw it?

Thank you

I bought a Trust muffler from a guy (on these forums) in South Brisbane but that was a few weeks ago and mine is stainless steel.

BTW, what's an R33 GTS-R?

Make a wanted to buy thread if you havent already. I'm sure someone will be willing to give/sell you theirs. I've got my stock muffler sitting in the garage but was hoping to hang onto it. If you can't find anyone willing to sell theirs let me know and I'll consider letting go of mine because I know I'd hate to have my muffler stolen, thats f**ked!

Try and find a pic of your stolen muffler so people know what to look out for. Hope you get it back buddy!

naturaly aspirated.. non-turbo.. didn't have the extra dosh to bring a proper one in

If its got a 4inch outlet or bigger and it ain't stainless steel chances are it might be mine.. its not a perfectly circular one either, it was flat along the top i think

Thanks

huhuhu...

holy crap I hope my one didn't cost as much as this one... mild steel is definately cheaper right? any way this is the closest one that i could find which looks like mine, it got trust in big words on the under belly too. The outlet is exactly like mine but I'm not sure if it was that big... maybe... it wasn't a cannon either.

      There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:

      And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.

      Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.

      I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.

      Deeve, I don't suppose that you've made any progress on this? My Stagea has the exact same problem, and just like you, I've read through as much as I can online, with no real progress. My car isn't throwing any codes at all, which is a little frustrating. I've changed plugs, checked the wiring and harness. A new MAF gets here next week, but I'm not hopeful it will solve the issue.
