Which Exhaust System To Get For My Car?

[5ky]

hey guys, whch exhaust should i get for my r34? i do not want a loud ass exhaust, i want something that flows very good and sounds good and isnt that loud,

i been quoted for a xforce 3` turbo back for $900 new

how is that compared with say jap exhausts?

any other recommendations?

most of it's going to come down to personal taste.

If all you want is a zorst to get the gas from the engine to out the back, then X-force is great value for money. Sure, the steel isn't as high quality, and the sound may seem 'tinny' to some, but hey, what does it matter, and for $900, turbo back, it's great value.

The other laternative is to get a bigger dump/front pipe (some in group buys) a high flow cat (ditto) and a jap cat back (pick your flavour... Apexi (or Apexera if you're being technical) HKS, Kakimoto......whatever)

The cost will be at least $300 for the pipe, about that again for the cat, and $900 for the cat back, which should include all gaskets.

So X-force will cost you $900, Something like an HKS silent will cost about $1500 if you import the cat back from nengun and buy the other bits on group buy.

Is the extra $600 (or so) worth it for a better sound, and better steel?

If so, go for it!

If not, well, you get the idea.

I went for the second option and got the HKS high power silent (though how an exhaust this loud can be called silent is open to question) and love it. I think the performance differences are negligable between different brands, provided they have the same width, and similiar straightness.

just pick your poison.

Look on Ebay you can get full stainless apexi systems for $1000. Go to the buy section and type in R34 or R33 heaps of shit there.

Get one made up , that way you know what parts went into getting it done.

I have dumps HKS (2) ,3" High flow cat, 3' by aprox 1 foot Resinator and Hot dog X-force with Silencer.

I think with this I can stay under the radar. You can remove the silencer on the track.

All was made up for me with my steel choice

Or you can buy my Kakimoto R, flows great, not loud at all! See sig for details.

i have a 3` catback atm, but my rear muffler is only a 2.5` should i just get a hi flow cat and dump + front and a new muffler installed? but gettin these parts and fitted would set me back around 4-500 or i should just buy a the whole xforce system instead? bcoz i could easily sell my current catback for 500, that way i have a brand new exhaust system
