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

    • Was the failed sensor by any chance this one? Did it just fail or start pissing on itself? I ordered one too, for fuel pressure monitoring, and now I am hesitant to put it in, hehe. Where did you find a brand one?
    • You'd be insane, when a brand new 8HP is ~$4k, and all the work to put a 6 in would cost the same as an 8 and the 8 is a completely established swap. If you think that getting a cheap Falcon box is going to make it a cost effective exercise, then you're not accounting for the extra $10-15k that the task will consume.
    • any further information on this? also interested in putting a zf6 in behind a rb30!
    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
