Just wanted to see if this gets any interest but yeah

Im wanting a exhaust done these holidays but $ supply is getting limited

Do exhaust shops do discounts if you bring in a group of customers???

Im getting 2.5inch straight through mandrel bent mild steel, with Xforce LP02 Cannon on the end with a resonator.. :D

Anyone else looking at getting custom exhaust done?

any good reccomended places in Melbourne S.E suburbs

beau, may i suggest you get some more details next time before you start a thread like this. there are quite a few missing details in regards to gaining interest.

finding a place that's willing to supply.

what exactly will be included in the group buy (cat back? cannon only? muffler?)

will everyone be required to buy the same setup?

photos?

recommended retail price?

special group buy price? how many required?

is the supplier willing to ship interstate? are you willing to ship interstate?

most importantly. are you willing to co-ordinate this buy?

just some food for thought.

Oh soz i didnt really mean like a co-ordinated group buy i meant something along liones of just local people on SAU going in exhuast getting what they want and if we bring in enough people we get $$ off if that makes sense.... eg..like if we get 4 people from SAU wanting exhaust done we get like $100 off or something along the lines of that...

but yeah i didnt state that clearly enough in first post.

well it seems something more specialized for local buyers only. seeing as you live in melbourne, it won't do much good for us up here in QLD or NSW.

there will still need to be some form of co-ordinating/organization involved. you will need to call an exhaust shop and make the agreement with them then you will somehow need to confirm the amount of buyers you promise in order to qualify for the discount.

no shop of any kind will honor a discount on the promise that X amount of patrons will buy their products, without seeing some money or without seeing some form of official/company backing.

i don't think you fully understand what's involved in co-ordinating a buy on a large scale. call a place up and find out, who knows.

you will have better luck having this thread in the Victorian part of the forum, would you like me to move it there? as it really doesn't belong here.

happy new year

Oh l thanks for the adviceee

um...nah dont worry about moving it..can u just delete it i cant really be bothered ringing up places and doing all that i probably just end up paying what eveer for custom exhaust..thanks anyway (Y)

Hi mate,

If you want to get it done cheaply just call around a few exhaust places, tell them what you want done, and ask for their best price, paying cash. Let them know you are looking around and get them to compete for your business.

You get what you pay for though, sometimes it's worth paying the extra for a quality product

Cheers

thread locked.

do some measurements on the stock GTR exhaust of your particular model.

i run the standard R33 GTR exhaust on mine, 2.50" standard - cheap simple and effective.

its noticeably louder than stock, bolts up exactly the same and the bonus, it says NISSAN.

might need to get the insides re-packed if it's been sitting around for a while.

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
