Thanks for that PVA_Glue!

Sounds good! Is that thing auto? Can you please tell me all the details of the exhaust set-up you had (resonators, mild or stainless steel piping etc, cat-back or full, extractors?)

And if you have a pic, I'd love to see what your POD filter set-up looked like, did you use any heat-shield or CAI piping? Would you recommend the Blitz metal mesh one?

Does anyone know what kind've sound I'd get from just changing the muffler? (My mate just did this with his 2.5L Impreza RS and it sounds good)

How much will a 2.5" cat-back system cost roughly?

Thanks.

P.S. I've attached a mp3 of my stock standard R33 GTS-4 for anyone who's interested, just revving it in neutral today, take it to about 3, then 4.5 then 7 grand (first time I've done it, felt good! hehe)

I have a '94 GTS Coupe with a 2.5" exhaust and a 4.5" tip, other then that its stock and it's fairly loud.

It looks like I have 2 Catalytic converters or something? One around about where the doors are and another where the back pillar/windscreen goes down (estimate). They're the same kinda shape and size so I'm not sure whats going on. Can anyone tell me what one of these are?

I will try and get a recording of mine, how did you guys record yours? Could I use like a phone and transfer it to pc, or will that be poor quality?

Hey mate, one is prolly cat converter and the other might be a resonator or something.

I recorded mine on a digi cam as a movie and then put the movie on the comp and just recorded the sound of it with the windows program 'Sound Recorder'. Try it with your phone and see how it goes.

Did your car already have the exhaust system fitted when you bought it? I'm trying to find out how much a 2.5" system will cost me.

Got a pic of your muffler, is it a cannon?

Stock muffler looks so shit hanging out the back of my car atm :rolleyes:

I'm looking at getting the Apexi Power Intake POD filter, $165 on modyourcar.com.au

Not sure what's going on with my computer but I can't play either of those .MOV files. Could somebody convert the files to mp3 or wav files or something so that I can at least listen to them? Thanks.

P.S. Anyone seen any places selling jap-brand (HKS, Blitz etc) exhausts for N/A R33s? (new or used)

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By V35Newbie · Posted

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.

      Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
