3 Things...

As the topic says what size is the std exhaust on a R33 GTS-T?

Also if i upgrade IC & add boost (10psi) i know it is beneficial but is it NECCESSARY to increase exhaust size???

Lastly what do you guys think of just getting a 3" from turbo back with a split dump pipe & high flow cat but leaving cat back exhaust as std?

I dont want people blasting me saying im stupid etc especially since i have not done any of the above but i would like to hear your informative opinions & reasons why & why not.

Thanks

Hi Noel, Sort out your battery issue?

yea thanks I got myself a 450CCA battery (MF55B24R) from Supercharge Batteries http://www.supercharge.com.au/ in Arndell Park & problem is now solved ;-)

yea but is it neccessary to do it (exhaust) if i up the boost to 10psi & get get a better IC? or is it just better to do it?

if its gonna cause damage to my car cause i have a std exhaust i wont boost it all all but if its gonna be fine and just wont go as well as it could, i'll do it & leave exhaust (for now) especially since i love it being quiet as a mouse atm with the std exhaust.

Thanks

there is no point upping the boost on a stock exhaust. it won't be able to flow enough air to make it worthwhile. you need to be able to let the air out properly before you start pumping more in. also it will hold more heat in.

makes sense...

what about just getting 3" turbo back/split-dump & cat vs just getting 3" cat back exhaust?

I know both is the ideal but if i were to get one or the other which would be more beneficial?

Thanks guys..i am just interested on peoples opinions/feedback on these ideas?

Cheers

Noel

a full turbo back is going to give a better power increase, as well as get cool the turbo slightly (the hot gases can flow away from the turbo faster). generally if you get it in 1 hit (like a full x-force turbo back system) it works out a bit cheaper than buying a cat back, cat and front pipe seperately. just depends on what you want. if you were going to just get a cat back i'd get the cat at the same time.

Yeah id deffinately get the hole system it will help make the whole set up much more efficient. I also found my boost went up a couple psi by having the split dump and turbo back exhaust due to the much better flow.

    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
