Exhaust Drone

[l0WRB]

hey guys just wondering if anyone knows a good place in aus where i could purchase a decent resonator that isnt the size of a football field ( car sits very low dont wanna rip it off )

my friend has a resonator cut out of a blitz nur spec exhaust and its a perfect size/shape kinda looks like a magic cat but yeah, just wondering if anyone knows where to find something like this...

Wont really stop the drone mate.

People many times over have fitted a resonator and had no effect on noise/drone.

A decent muffler is the only sure way to fix it

It really sux because im running a larger turbo with bigger exhaust housing the whole note of the car is droney and annoying

yet when it had the stock turbo it was so much quieter... when you mean muffler you mean the cannon on the rear or a muffler half way between the exhaust

[GeeTR]

Cannon at the back to impress the lads at the country club, and a second muffler half way that actually does some muffling RB's sound like trucks when they drone lol

[l0WRB]

yeah tell me about it lol, but it sounds fat when u get under it the growl... hmmmm i dont think ill fit a big muffler underneth it...the exh sits bout 70mm off the ground:(

[GeeTR]

ha, too low bro!

some oval mufflers have quiet a thin profile, looks around.

[_Ryan_]

ditch the cannon for a proper muffler... two oval mufflers(one tip, one mid) should do it

[H@ME]

yeah i run a oval muffler and my tone is great but i only running the stock turbo.

If your car is 70mm off the ground, then why don't you get it up to LEGAL limit.

then fit the proper mid muffler and make the sound LEGAL too.

but I guess it won't look as fat, PHAT, PH4T or what ever hektik word you want to call it.

I'm running a 3.5 inch turbo back, and its dead quiet with a 5inch canon at the back....

probably more quieter than a stock SS

Im having the same problem with the drone of the rb26 with a 1.06 housing. Ive got a 3.5 inch trust TR drag exhaust, and its really loud.

How is your 3.5 inch exhaust so quiet? What mufflers do you have on it?

I dont really want to restrict too much though, as its cost a lot to get 350rwkw!

orginally it was a ST May's exhaust, but I've chopped off the rear muffler and replaced it with a HKS Super Dragger, but still retain the st may 3.5 inch mid muffler.

You can have a full conversation and listen to music with the windows up and can't even hear the exhaust on the highway, that's until plant it.

i've got a mid muffler and rear cannon muffler. the car is quiet on idle but loud high in the revs. i still get adequate flow without having the drone sound.

Im abit closer to your now, but still not to your level

Take it off.

Thanks for your other thread - I was saving up for a Titaniium system but won't bother now!

Does anyone have underneath pics of the mid and rear muffler space of an R33 . I believe they don't have a lot of space and it would be good to know how big the oval mufflers can be . My exhaust is some sort of Nismo the car came from Japan with , pretty quiet and I'm curious to know what they've done to shut it up . I think most Jap exhausts would be 80mm because they can't replicate (metricate) 3"/76.2mm .

Are you kidding? You own one of these cars and you can't be arsed getting underneath it to look/photgraph/measure it yourself?
