I'm looking at getting a 3" system from the dump pipe back for my Stagea.

I had always taken my exhaust jobs to Craig at Maddat, but he no longer owns the business.

Can anyone recommend a good non-rexpensive, but non-cheap place to go to?

Or does anyone have a 3" system lying around that will fit? :P

Thanks. I'll check them out during my lunch break!

exhaust technology

Thanks but I think they charge too much for what they do.

try Just Jap for quote for a cat back system

Just Jap bellmounth stainless steel 3" turbo to cat pipe @ approx $220 delivered is used on my RS4 Stagea (series 1)

highflow cat converter for Skyline

cat back system is simply mild steel mandrel bent (any exhaust shop) with a GTR Kakimoto Racing muffler welded on, all positioned correctly.

You DONT need to spend big bucks on an exhaust

How similar is the exhaust system (dump pipe back) for an R33 and Stagea? Will an R33 system fit under a Stagea? :(

I just bought Steve's old system and will mod it to fit if need be. I might even still fab in a Magnaflow muffler to quieten it done some if its too loud.

:P

an r33 4-door system will still need 30cm in length added to it, somewhere.

may need some slight re-mandrel bends so best to get a shop to fit and weld it together.

I went to lonsdale exhausts to add a muffler and it was pretty cheap.

Well then thats a good opportunity to fit a flow-thru muffler about mid section then to make up the 30cm :(

I'll prob fit it up myself and see what needs doing on the weekend, just for something to do LOL

+1 for ET. Never had an exhaust done anywhere else. They've done 5 exhausts for me so far, 2 x sets of I/C piping, 3 inlet pipes, not to mention all the other shit they've helped me with. Marky's also helping me put in my cage (bolt in jap unit, but with welded in floor plates etc) getting the lines sorted for my hydro, and were also changing the exhaust on the 31 for the 3rd tme LOL.

Also, give Andrew at AM performance a try. Works out a small shed, but from what Ive seen the workmanship is pretty damn good.

But go to marky first :dry:;):P

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
