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.

lol most ebay stuff are fake tho

:D

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 :)

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

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
