Dont forget that mnay of the titanium exhausts only run one muffler where others run two. So one less muffler also helps....and the few single muffler tiutamium exhausts i have heard sound great...but my god they are loud. With speed events typically havign to still be under a certain db reading....you could find yourself even getting kicked off race tracks. Duncan and SK need not worry as State rounds are typically no noice days...but us club guys? Expecially in Vic last year where i got several warning that saw me driving around off boost just gettign my eye in for a single session where i gave it hell :D

why don't they make exhausts with the V-band type flanges now? trust did make one before like that, and it's awesome. easy to fit/remove. seals well, no pesky leaks. I guess cost is the only downside, but it's not like you are going to have 10 bloody V-bands.

Maybe check here:

They are supposedly all good to the JASMA standards. Click the Nissan button & have a look at the pdf. My kanji is compelte rubbish so the columns may mean anything. :D

Yup... They're all 5.0 - 5.1kgs for the cat-back for the PE Ti-R and 6.7 - 7.1kgs for the PE Ti cat-back for GTRs.

Roy, What "speed events" are you talking about exactly?

Surely there wouldn't be any noise restrictions on private track hire days and private practice days? I just ordered a "bloody loud" Amuse Titan R1 exhaust which I fear will be very loud, and I don't want to run the car with a silencer :)

Brand and specs on this one? Titanium cat backs are very light, but not THAT light.... 5.x kgs seems to be the norm from what I've seen.

specs unsure of..bought of the forums..it does not have 2 mufflers its straight through into 4ich cannon.he said it was 3.1kg and well it felt light so i didnt even bother checking...2kg who gives a rats anyway...

sounds wicked thats alli cared about

deal Gary, what size do you want, and how long?

Andrew - yes there are noise limits at some tracks on some days. All NSW circuits have permanent noise meters but they often are not manned. The hillclimb tracks often have a noise meter, it depends on the neighbours (for instance MG Car Club at Ringwood and King Edward Park). They normally specify max noise at 30+ meters away from the track - when you think about v8 sports sedans and supercars being legal most skylines are OK with a big turbo in the middle of the exhaust quieting it down

I have a 900 mm Trust Ti cat back on the R32GTST and it is almost 20 kgs lighter than the 3.25" Nismo cat back that it replaced, which is now on the Stagea. I have been looking (albeit not very hard) for a source so that I can make the cat forward section out of Ti as well. So Duncan, you find some Ti and I'll get it welded.

Cheers

Gary

thats one big system....900mm....zero backpressure with that puppy!

deal Gary, what size do you want, and how long?

Is this an actress and bishop joke? :blink:

Obviously I would like 90 mm to match the back half. Length is tricky, 1m would be enough to do back to the joint where the wastegate pipe joins the turbine pipe. If I go any further than that (closer to the turbo) I would need 2 sizes, 75 mm and 50 mm. Plus it would need a lobster back welding job for the bends, which is very time consuming. To do the lot would require about 1 m of 90 mm, 1 m of 75 mm and 1 m of 50 mm to cover it.

Cheers

Gary

    • I thought Australia got rid of the "drag dodgy fuel up to 91 RON with ethanol", which is why all E10 advertise as "up to 94 RON" ? Anyway I put E10/91 in the missus' Mazda because she empties the tank weekly, when all my cars get 98RON. tl;dr - turbo - 98 RON, if you can't afford that, sell it and get a commuter car (or tune your car for 91, which no one does).
    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
