do the ones you offer come with cats and dump pipes etc??

Just depends what style you choose mate, some of the systems come with replacement cats and other dont. Greddy do a front/dump pipe set up but its rrp is close to $1000 for rb26dett..but at the end of the day you get what you pay for. For a full trust system from turbo's back would cost you approx $1800-$2000.

Thanks,Ryan

had around 1500 put aside....

when you say go a jap exhaust, what do they have that some one cant make for me? i know that may be a stupid question...

Also how do you kno that these jap ehaust your buying have high flowed cats etc etc

Not a stupid question at all......that's the whole basis of my arguement.

A qualified exh guy with experience in hi-performance cars can make a nice system and save you a few $$$.

Mandrel bends kept to a minimum, magnaflow cats, and your choice of rear muffler.....and if it drones like some jap pipes do, he can add a straight through resinator for you, this way you get the look at the rear you're after and the sound that you want.

forget everything that has been suggested so far and speck to Andrew from AM Performance, He is based in Adelaide (workshop is near port Adelaide) and the quality of his work is far far better then many workshops in andelaide, Andrew did my R32 and i asked for a split dump and a nice sounding exhaust and he delivered a quality product that blew me away!

^ lol and i bet that would sound tuff ass xD.. well u drive a gtr so might aswel get the best of everything ahaha, jap brand name exhaust are good because they do extensive research on there stuff and its been tested over and over to make it good. god bless HKS.

Edited by gtrkiet
and thats because...???

Some of them (like mine) leak residue (a very minute amount) and it can gum up the AFM's... thats the only problem ive encountered with em, but its easily solved by cleaning the afm contact plates and the interior tubing. Its doesnt happen all the time, usually only happens when you get overzealous with the filter oil, or use the wrong filter oil...

Had a rampod tho on my old r31 and that suffered from heinous residue problems. For my money the pods are structured a little more forgiving for turbos

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
