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...

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

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!

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.

because stock height doesnt interest me and looks fkn disgusting :)

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. :P

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 .

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
