You could probably re-direct that comment to those that have said it is relatively quiet (bar the blitz NUR) on this forum.... maybe they're wrong? I disagree with you on looks though ... the standard has two tips and so does the legalis... now when you consider most rival tips looks like cannons then I'd certainly assert it does look close to stock in comparison.

Ok, guys from Moscow approached me today. They have a "demo" version ready, now they need a brave person in Perth who's got a car DVD based Xanai unit (M35 Stagea or Skyline up to 2005). This gotta

Yeah, when you give it some, the thing is loud. The nismo I have is pretty much the same. It's not near stock. At low revs, it actually does a good job at keeping things kinda quiet.If you really want an exhaust that is stock quiet and flows, then it's going to be custom.

I don't know what I did above ^^^ (how do you delete a post).

I thought (again from what i've read on here) custom exhaust weren't as quiet as some branded exhaust. If not, i'll just do that, they're cheaper as well eh?

Well, all depends on what you say you want. If you ask of a 1.5inch spaghetti mess, they will give it to you.

Ask for a quiet flowing exhaust with stock noise, and it might cost a bit more, but they will make one.

You in Sydney? You can have my 350z mid pipe that flows a heap better for $80. Larger diameter and just a resonator, instead of that massive muffler.

It's all down to what you ask for and where you take it.

I have a custom AM Performance exhaust. It was a development version, so it was too loud to start with, but it has now been fixed up and is pretty much to my liking. Andrew at AM will sell you an exhaust to whatever volume you'd like. You want a crazy loud one, he will oblige. Quiet? He will oblige.

Mine is reasonably loud when you put the boot in, but doesn't drone on long trips. It also looks sex with twin 3" titanium tiips. Everyone who sees them, loves them. Mmm... titanium...

lol the blitz NuR is quiet.. i got one and you can hardly hear the dam thing.

Mine was like that. Wait a 1000 kms or so & it'll get louder; or more noticeably the note gets deeper.

Relative to what though?

I owned a Legalis for a couple of years up until last year where it went on Scott's car and the Nismo (same as on Alex's PNM35) went on mine.

Regarding looks, I like both of them, but as you can see in my sig, definitely not stock looking.

Custom exhaust depends on the competence of the maker I guess.

I understand a lot of them come over with only one key .... what did you guys do getting another one? just got another cut ?

Invest in a good alarm & 3 point immobiliser, and get some more keys cut. The blank key (with no buttons) has the part number H0564-AU000, search for it on ebay and you'll find some for around $30 delivered; personally I think thats the easiest option :thumbsup:

Hmm this might be a go'er if the Legalis is loud. I know a dump improves performance significantly (and i'm doing that) but does a cat-back in these cars do much on top of the dump?

Any recommendations for an air filter or is a K&N from autobarn or supercheap good enough.

Upon importation, did most of you get it serviced straight up? Compliance don't do anything along those lines do they?

I recommend not getting a pod, but instead using the factory air box, getting a K&N filter or the like, and getting the 'power duct' genuine nissan attachment (part number is somewhere on here)

It's cheaper than a pod and performs just as good if not better and you retain your cold air intake. It also seals to the top of the bonnet too!

I actually got mine serviced after compliance, because the compliance workshop didn't change the fluids. (Idiots)

The key with these things is to change the oil and filter often as per the typical turbo oil replacement schedule.

Luckily with mine the service history was good, so it didn't really need it, but better safe than sorry.

Dump should be number 1 priority, for both performance, economy & increasing turbo life. A cat-back does help significantly & you will see what we mean when you look at the factory mufflers, especially the HUGE one in the middle of the car. Weight saving along is worth the upgrade, lol. After that, the mid (front?) pipe can be changed for one with a hi-flow cat & there will be more (but lesser) gains. If you do this, get an exhaust bung for wideband sensor welded in at the same time.

Stick with any off the shelf filter in the factory airbox as suggested above. IMO if you notice a performance gain just by choosing one filter over another, it's purely placebo.

QFM pads are pretty popular around here. I've got HPX pads and no complaints. They're cheap, you can get them through GSL Rallysport, who are a forum sponsor.

AFAIK V35 coilovers will not fit an ARX. I think the rears are different? Plus you'd dump it. What's wrong with BCs?

Just ring GSL Rallysport - I think I had to wait a WHOLE DAY and Greg knows what fits anyway, you'll pretty much just have to tell him you want pads for a M35 Stagea.

As Cam says, they're 350Z Touring, and that's all over the site if you have a search :google:

Oh and the shocks, BC BRs are not universal. No shocks are. I think the fronts would be fine, rears would be different maybe? If they're your sisters just try fitting them and see!

      gauge needle removal

      By Jarsky · Posted

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.

      R34 Speedo not working after manual swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder

      Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
