Hey guys just looking for a bit of help here....my mate is having an RB25DE auto put into his R32 four door and at the moment he is having trouble finding an exhaust for it, he only wants to get something cheap and reliable just so he can get it out of the workshop as the guy is really stuffing him around. the tradey is quoting $1000 for the exhaust but i think that is ridiculous for what my mate is looking for...any suggestions or help would be great, as my mate is getting soo frustrated that he almost wants to sell the car...!

Cheers, TYP.

im pretty sure he can use the standard exhaust system from the RB20, my understanding is most of the RB20 and Rb25 parts are interchangable.

if not get RB25 headers into the standard cat back or what ever he has in place.

if the mechanic is screwing him over get him to tow the car to a more respectable workshop that will help him out

yeah i thought that the RB series would all have the same block so theoritcally as long as there is no size problem or back-pressure problems it should work....but i can't believe it is so hard to find one, if anyone in sydney has an RB20 ehxaust or one that will fit for the a 32 sedan(any condition as long as it works) i would be greatful for it...

Also would an RB25DET exhaust work or is it too big or have different design/add-ons for turbo?

This is all the car needs to be back on the road i think(not sure) so i am searching far and wide for it. the tradey reckons that he is the first in Oz to put a RB25DE in a 32 four door and says that is the reason it is so hard and expensive...i think he is full of it and taking my mate for a ride...

any jap wrecker should have one, even get an aftermarket one made from the exhaust shop just make it in cheap mild steel for now.

the 2dr exhausts fit its just short by 100mm or something like that, cant be too hard to weld some pipe in to make it longer if needed.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
