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 .

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
