Hi guys, another comm cheque, another mod :)

Did a search but not having much luck.

I'm going to buy a cat back system in the next few days & I can't decide which to buy :) !

I've been trawling through the Nengun site & have rounded it down to the HKS Silent Hi-power & the Blitz Nur Spec R. They are both in the price range I am happy to spend on a cat-back ($800-$850 delivered nengun prices)

I'm looking for people's opinions & personal experiences with either of these systems as far as Exhaust noise (nothing too droney) & overall quality of the system. I'm after real opinions, not just what the manufacturers say on the website :)

Cheers in advance everyone,

:huh:

get a big 3.5inch pipe, weld a flange on the end of it it straight onto the cat's flange, then wack a coahanger around it to hold it up near the diff, and run the pipe out the back :huh:

but if ur soft, go the HKS maybe, i dunno, i got nfi about these fancy muffled exhuast systems :)

CUSTOM. approx 400 for a 3 inch mild steel mandrel bent catback. You choose ur mufflers\look etc. For me this was the best choice, I got to make a high flowing system which was as quiet as possible. At idle it only sounds a tiny tiny bit louder then it did with the 13 y/o standard exhaust system.. Still has a quiet sporty note on boost\when driving etc.

then just your front\dump pipe and high\megaflow cat..

I came to a similar crossroad when choosing an exhaust. Btw. there r plenty of exhaust threads when u do a search, i know i came up with more than i can poke a stick at bout 9mths ago.

Couple of things, the prices from Nengun, be sure that they include taxes coz i dont think they do. From memory Blitz NUR was round AU$990 + delivery. Secondly i would have to say the decision in the end is pretty much just about the sound/note, an exhaust is an exhaust, they r just pipes. Diffecrence is minimal, probly only in the mufflers, welding n finish.

If i had to buy one new i'd get an X-Force, great value for $, looks n sounds ok, plenty of ppl on here use em n $ u save there can go towards other mods that im sure ull want to make :)

But if ur not fussed on used gear u can pick up used exhaust here for a good price, i was gonna go with X-Force for my 34 until i saw a used Blitz for less so i got that instead, sent across the country no probs. Great flow, bit drony at certain revs. But out of the 2 u mentioned, i would say that the Blitz would hav a better flow but noisier, HKS would be less drony(bigger mufflers) but not as good a flow.

Ur choice...

I would hardly call the HKS Silent High Power quiet.I only have the silent power and a decat pipe and its already pretty loud, it was very quiet when the rest of the exahsut was standard tho, i think i sounded better to, just rember that the r33 silent power uses a bullet shapped center muffler (its tiny as you can see on my pics) and the r34 silent power uses a box shapped center muffler which makes it alot quieter.

Cheers Everyone, Very much appreciated! :happy:

lol @ Nisskid, Nothing wrong with being a softie :D

I had a custom exhaust made up for my R33 when I had it, awesome sound but so F'ckin' droney & annoying on the Freeway at around 100-110+kms.

Looks like I'm steering towards the HKS for the cat-back. Want to keep things low-key :D

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
