hey dude, i have a full xforce 3.5" system from just jap. all stainless steel. very good and im very happy, but just be carefull with the volume. i think im over the legal limit...

as for size the 3.5" has a bigger resonator which i think keeps the volume lower plus the bigger set is better if your gonna go for bigger power figures later down the track...

I have a 3" with the bigger resonator.

Is very quiet lol, no way that its over. After putting it on i was actually wondering if i had remembered to take all the stuffing out of the pipe sections lol.

Great performance upgrade tho, spools much nicer now, and JJR do great prices on them. I was quoted $600 extra by the so called "wa supplier" of these than just jap.

So you pretty much cant go wrong with either but given the choice, go the 3.5 from the cat back with the oval resonator. U will have no troubles.

But just so you know they do hang kinda low.

Cheers,

Dragonforce

Hey thanks for the replies,

I dont think i explained it properly. Im gonna get a full 3" exhaust, im not getting a 3.5" at all but what i wanted to know is with the 3" exhaust what would suit it better... A 3" cat or 3.5"cat both are for a 3"exhaust?

Nismoid knows what im talking about.

Just asking cause you get an option with which one you want.

Thanks again guys

I have the full 3" xforce system on my 33. Its satasfyingly loud without being offensive. Ive had a cop ask me to rev my car while he stood behind it and didn't get a defect. Doesn't mean its not over I know but it helps.

Anyway the 3" system is fairly well price, and yes I would think the 3.5" cat with it, even if it did fit fine, would be kind of.....pointless.

A cat is more restrictive then an open pipe yes? So a 3.5" cat flared out to a 3" system, will still clearly flow more then a 3" cat with 3" sys... ;S

By how much, and is it worth the cost, who knows. In a fortnight or two im using a 5" cat with a 4" system.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
