This has been mentioned a few times, but also make sure you get 2 mufflers to reduce cabin drone instead of 1 muff 1 hotdog or whatever.

Interested to see what you get as i'm in the same boat but don't wanna spend 1k+ for a jap one.

mmmmm. where to start

ok.

Just Jap sell a bellmouth 3inch stainless steel turbo-to-cat pipe for $220 delivered roughly. get that.

get a high flow cat converter

for the rear, I believe a R33 4door cat-back system will fit BUT it will need around 30cm welded on in length.

you do NOT need 2 mufflers.

A nice 3" straight through muffler (i use a Kakimoto gtr-racing muffler) is fine, best just to get an exhaust shop to fit the front section, measure the back section and then custom bend the pipe section from cat converter to muffler, welding the muffler on for you.

easy.

  • 2 weeks later...

i got a quote from everlast mufflers for a complete system, dump pipe, (bolted strait to the turbo) apparently theres some type that bolts onto the stock pipe :S. high flow cat. and the bak has 3 inch mandrell bent stainless steel with a cannon for $1600. he said he could do a 1200 one using cheaper metals and lower qaulity cat. and if i wanted i could mix and match... what do you guys think of this :S is it just me or is it fu*kn expensive?

well i have a split dump, highflow cat and 3.5" Greddy cat back system and i paid roughly the same price from memory......if your going for an aftermarket option then definatly worth spending the extra on a good quality metal pipes mate....its a good upgrade and highly recommend a good quality system...i have had it for a couple of years now and its given me no problems at all....apparently D&T and AAA exhausts are very good with prices and quality workmanship....AAA recently gave my mate a quote on using stainless steel from turbo back $1200

I've got an R33 system (twin cannons) about to be fitted to my Stag. I'll take note of any changes/problems and give you guys an accurate account of how it fits.

BTW I'll be throwing on a muffler between the cat and cannons to quieten her down. :D

Don't forget, there are different grades of stainless steel.

Some SS systems can still rust easily.

:D

Demand and supply.

Lots of people want exhaust work and are willing to pay what the shops ask.

go to exhuast technologies and speak to marky, he is good with prices and everyone knows his shop and product, highly rated and great quality, or D&T at salisbury and speak to gav, he is the person to talk to bout import exhuast systems.

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
