If you're referring to the type i have on my car, I've got no idea as well:

All i know is that it's 3.5" from cat-back (possibly mild-steel? I dunno) with 2 big oval mufflers and 3.5" tip - Only markings i could find on the exhaust was under the muffler where it had the JASMA Japanese emissions label stamped on.

I'm also interested to see if anyone knows about manufacturers that have produced these type of exhausts.

Cheers,

Just get one made over here :(

do you think that a custom made exhaust would flow as well as a jap produced one

it may be a stupid question, but i feel that a hks or kakimoto may just flow better as it is designed specifically for the car.

i was thinking, if i got one made at an exhaust shop that i might use

xForce dumps and cat

magnaflow rear muffler

get them to make the rest, (front pipe, and catback)

Kakimoto R

Fujitsubo Legalis

Blitz Release TT

Apexi have made it before as well

Nismo

from the pics ive seen of the kakimoto and fujitsubo

they both seem to have cannon mufflers

unless they had the wrong pic on the web

A well made exhaust is a well made exhaust...

Not sure what you mean when you say a Jap one is designed for the car... custom made local one is also designed for the car, so its the same thing.

As long as its designed to flow, then it will is the be all and end all really.

Any decent exhaust place can produce work equal or better to the Japs.

My exhaust (locally made, custom mufflers the works) will flow over 350rwkw no problem and its 92dB at the moment, so damn quiet.

Other cars i know are making more than that, and similar noise outputs.

One that I have never seen anyone else mention is a momo-course exhaust.... was a beautiful sound when my car was non turbo .. now its bloody quiet unless you put your foot down.. then she still gives a good roar;)... i think its a 3-3.5inch system and a 5inch tip...which looks pretty big :)....heres some pics...

this one is from when I was doing my rear garnish... note all the screws and bolts sitting in the exhaust :(

Looks like and old HKS - they like the 4bolt flanges

sounds like custom is in order then

do you think i should provide the dumps, or have the whole thing custom made??

ive just done some more reading up on here about other custom exhausts

i was thinking of getting 3" the whole way

but seems like people are suggesting 3.5"

but, primarily, should i provide the dumps?(and possibly provide the cat too, if i get xforce dumps and cat)

sounds like custom is in order then

do you think i should provide the dumps, or have the whole thing custom made??

There are plenty of off-shelf dumps around these days, just get those

And the rest from the Front Pipe back, fitting dual mufflers will keep it nice and legal(ish) for the EPA

yeah i want it to be fairly quiet anyways

my s15 was loud as shit

and i want my GTR to be nice and sleek

going for a very very clean looking r32 gtr

atm its fully stock, maybe i should just leave it that way...

    • 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.
