Hi guys, I am looking into getting the xforce turbo back system for my R32 GTR. She's making 330rwhp and has a cat back system on it at the moment.

I'm after comments on power gains and how noisy it will be also. The current Veilside system on it now is really quiet, so it may be a bit of a shock if it's killer loud and full of drone.

Anyway the x-force kit is 3.5" in SS and includes, dumps, front pipe, resonator, cat and rear cannon (so everything as a bolt on kit).

Has anyone got any experience with this? - is it cheap(ish) for good reason or will it do the job?

Don't want to buy this thing and regret it so ........any feedback will be much appreciated.

It will do the job just fine. Power gains will definitely be noticeable, this mainly comes from upgrading the dump pipes. Bolts straight up without modification to anything.

Noise shouldn't be too loud or droney, but it won't be silent either.

I'm only speaking from experience from my own xforce system, but its on a r33 gts-t, so it's a bit different from your car.

Hey yeah ive got a Turbo back X-force on my Series 2 33 ripped the silencer out has a good tune to it not loud , but catches the on lookers attention, and felt good power gain after bolting it on aswell, but then again ur car is diff but shld get a good bit of power out of it...

I have an xforce stainless catback ,stainless cat and stainless front/dump on mine and there is no drone and it flows very well. it was as good quality as the jap branded ones i looked at and i would buy on again.

I dunno how everyone is saying they are not that loud! Ive got a full stainless steel 3" xforce turboback on my car and i reckon its damn loud. I wanna try and get it made quieter. Mine has a hotdog and rear cannon. Are all you guys using hotdogs or do you have oval resonators?

Nah I've got the oval resonator. Maybe Xforce changed the type of resonator they put on from hotdog to oval. When I bought mine I wasn't given a choice to which was on there.

my 33 had the full xforce turbo back system when i got it. It was a damn nice sounding system. Not too loud but, as said before, loud enough to do the job. I have updated to a 3and1/2 system for my build. Hope its not too much louder than the xforce.

      Fender flare widths across front/back of car

      By AdiR34 · Posted

      Hey y'all! I'm curious about how y'all go about widebodying your cars. I noticed that when running a square setup, my front wheels are a bit more tucked in than my rear wheels. Not by much, maybe 5-10mm. This leads me to wonder - when I widebody, should I use narrower front flares and wider rear flares? I found a set of 40mm rear flares that I really like, and was thinking of pairing them with some 18mm front flares, but I don't want the car to look strange. How have others done this? Note, I'm in a sedan. Thanks!

      And if it was anything other than an auto tranny part, it might be a problem. But seeing as all auto trannies belong in the recycling bin, it's fine.

      All the schemas I can see, indicate your typical setup of ATF 'cooler' (read: heat exchanger) in the bottom radiator tank..ie; https://nissan.epc-data.com/stagea/wgnc34/5413-rb25det/engine/214/ ...but I can prattle on a bit here. These trannies have a thermistor in the sump ~ the TCU reads this and 1. bumps the line pressure up when the ATF is 'cold' and 2. prevents the TC lockup clutch from operating, until the ATF comes up to minimum operating temp (keeps the ATF 'churning' through the TC so it heats up quicker) -- trigger point is around 55C. In these conditions, the engine coolant temperature rises faster than the ATF temperature, and also helps heat the ATF up, which is why it's best to think of the in radiator tank setup as a heat exchanger ; the heat can flow in both directions... ...with these trannies, the 'hot' ATF comes out the front banjo bolt, flows through the cooler/heat exchanger, and returns to the box  via the rear banjo bolt. This gets a mention, due to the wildly different opinions wrt running auto trans fluid coolers ~ do you bypass the in radiator tank altogether, or put the cooler inline with the in radiator tank system...and then, do you put the additional cooler before of after the in radiator tank system?... ....fact is the nominal engine operating temp (roughly 75C), happens to be the ideal temperature for the ATF used in these trannies as well (no surprises there), so for the in radiator tank system to actually 'cool' the ATF, the ATF temp has to be hotter than that...lets say 100C -- you've got 25C of 'excess' heat, (slowly) pumping into the 75C coolant. This part of the equation changes drastically, when you've got 100C ATF flowing through an air cooled radiator ; you can move a lot more excess heat, faster ~ it is possible to cool the ATF 'too much' as it were...(climate matters a lot)... ...in an 'ideal' setup, what you're really trying to control here, is flash heating of the ATF, primarily produced by the TC interface. In a perfect world, wrt auto trans oil cooling, you want a dedicated trans cooler with builtin thermostatic valving - they exist. These should be run inline and before the in radiator tank system ~ when 'cold' the valving bypasses the fin stack, allowing the ATF to flow direct to the in radiator tank heat exchanger, so it works 'as intended' with helping heat the ATF up. When 'hot' (iirc it was 50C threshold), the valving shuts forcing the ATF through the cooler fin stack, and onto the in radiator tank heat exchanger...and you sort of think of it as a 'thermal conditioner' of sorts...ie; if you did cool your ATF down to 65C, the coolant will add a little heat, otherwise it works as intended... ...the 'hot' ATF coming from the front bango bolt, is instantiated from the TC when in use, so all/any flash heated oil, flows to the fluid-to-air cooler first, and because of the greater heat differential, you can get rid of this heat fast. Just how big (BTU/h) this cooler needs to be to effectively dissipate this TC flash heat, is the charm...too many variables to discuss here, but I just wanted to point out the nitty-gritty of automatic trans fluid coolers ~ they're a different beastie to what most ppl think of when considering an 'oil cooler'... /3.5cents
