Hey guys, well its been about a month now and i think im ready for the next level of modding my R33 GTST.. Well ive been researching on the fourms a for a while now and ive found that a few people have catback and some full.. I was wondering...Would you guys recommend me a good exhaust setup.. like turbo back... all the way with high flow car is ok? or bad.. i wana hear the goods and bads... I'd appreciate it if you guys would post up the goods and bads about your set ups... My plan is to have a full ehxuast all the way not to loud but... something good then my next mod would be a intercooler... Thanks so much guys.

Geraus Huynh.

What bads? as long as you dont go something ridiculously over 4" turbo back I cant see anyhing causing a problem (except for noise)

Free(er) flowing exhaust is a good thing, exhaust gases are leaving the engine faster.

If you dont want a lot of noise then the Trust PEII is probably a good option, 3" pipe and only barely over legal limit. Fujitsubo have a few that are quiet with good airflow aswell, stay away from the HKS high power silent, it is not silent :yes:

The Magic cat is a good brand and try to aim for atleast 3inch or bigger as a minimun.

Also, get a split dump and front pipe - So the seperate wastegate pipe joins down nea the cat, this helps reduce any turbulence up the dump pipe end.

I have a trust system with two oval mufflers and it is very very quiet. So if you want silence go for two mufflers that are oval, but if you want it loud, go a single cannon.

have fun

Heres a hint, try any of the car importers in town.

A lot of their stock comes into the country with good quality aftermarket exhausts, these exhaust are of no real value to them

as they need stock systems to comply their cars. What they do need is stock systems like yours..aproach one nicely and do a deal, it

should work out cheaper by a good $ or 2. I found a huge genuine nismo cat back and a titanium dump for mine some years back.

I've since changed the dump to a split. I think it cost me around $350 at the time fitted.

    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
