Guest NVDGTS4

Hey guys i've got myself an R33 GTS4. Afew weeks ago i got myself a 2.5" From the cat back with a Hotdog probably 16" long and my Magnaflow Twin tip muffler put onto it. It sounds freakin sweet as but not to loud. But when im driving fast acceleration around 2800rpm to 3800rpm i've got this "clicking/Whipper snipper" Rasping sound and it sounds like complete shit ! but after that rev range it sounds like a true RB. I've tried everything even fitting a different muffler but i cant get rid of it!! .. What have you guys got running that dont have the rasp? Oh by the way its Mendral Bend and the engine is S1 (139Kw) RB25DE

Hey,

if you have a quick look through most of the exhaust threads in the N/a section you will find that everyone has come to the conclusion that there is no way to get rid of the rasp between 3 and 4000 rpm or there abouts.

its got something to do witht he twin cam setup on the rb's

just ignore it or turn your stereo up :blink:

I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO COME IN HANDY! :)

Thanks eug!

i never notice anything strange on my car? lol

Early model Rb25de's came with a flap in the exhaust that was closed under cruising conditions and open when W.O.T.. this was done to stop the raspy-ness

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
