Yes there is. The R32 dump pipes are absolute crap and if youre chasing decent power, should be one of the first things to change. The R33 ones are better, but aftermarket ones (the Trust ones are gorgeous) are still the best.

I supply wholesale dumps / exhausts up this way now a days if anyone wants anything.... I think they are around the $370 mark in 3mm mild. Also can get coatings or stainless. I should mention these are dump / front pipe combos, going from the rear of the turbo to the cat.

I'm sure the R33 and R32 are the same. My old 32, and ARM85's 33 had the same dump pipes. (Actually, his was fitted to my car for a short time). So, in aftermarket terms there should be no difference. If you buy a pipe to suit 33, its should suit 32. Assuming they are both turbo, of course.

The R34 is slightly different I think, and has a different design.

Cheers!

correct again oscar! i can tell you all that there is a certain 'engine swap' (mick....*cough* did i say that???) taking place and that the R32 and R33 (gts-t) dump pipes are exactly the same with regards to physical size and bolting up.....

The GTST ones might be the same, but as per the OP's question, the GTR ones are definately different. They should bolt up to each other, but the R32 ones are pretty poorly designed and pose a big restriction.

Ooops. I like GTS-T's :D

Nick is totally right.

GTR wise, the R32 and R33 aftermarket items share the same design, but if you were going to go a stock item, you'd use something from a 33. The R32's stock pipes are pretty ordinary really

Twin entry dumps for 32/33 are about the $500-$550 mark I think, I'll have to check.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
