2 Mufflers

Hey guys

just wanted to advise on my exhaust system:

kokimoto cat back

front pipe

2 mufflers

no dump and i think its a stock cat

i wanted to get my exhuast system updated

i wanted to get a dump or a new front pipe

and i wanted or i heard that if i get rid of the 2nd muffler it will be less restrictive and my car will go harder????

and i was thinking of putting a new high flow cat??

i got a quote and to do this will cost roughly $600

high flow cat and dump and remove 2nd muffler do u think its worth it or should i leave it??? will my car eat more fuel???

when i bought my old GTST it just had a shitty kakimoto cat-back on it (3" i think) and i destroyed it when i pulled into a driveway. So i upgraded to 3 1/2" Dump pipe and front pipe combined (HPC Coated), 4" high flow cat and 3 1/2" 5Zigen catback with 1 hotdog muffler.. she was DAMN loud, but jesus, it made such a big difference!! but yeah, i was lucky to get 350 klm's from a tank (and that was with cooler, boost, pod and some other bits n pieces..)

Hope that helps.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
