Hey guys

I have been reading many of the posts about exhausts and extrators on here, but I think I need to post my own thread just to clear some things up for myself. I'm really new to skylines (Owned one since 6 hours ago haha).

My exhaust makes a rattle between 3.5k and 4k revs... it really friggen annoys the crap out of me... sounds so terrible... I currently have the stock exhaust system on.

I'm not after a loud car. I want something that sounds pretty deep and quiet at low revs, but when I put my foot down a bit, it be nice to hear that rumble... again, loud though... (I hope this isn't confusing, it's hard to explain).

I'm thinking by adding extrators that to the stock exhaust that could be all I'm after for sound wise?

Also... That rattle... most likely the cat?

If I took my car down to the local exhaust specialists, what sort of pricing should I be after?

What are the price ranges on extrators + installment as well as cat + install...

Sorry for the basic questions, but doing a little research on here could save me a bit of money...

Thanks for your time

depends on the specialist. call them and ask for their hourly rate.

look anywhere from $500 upwards for a complete system.

again call up and get a quote, stainless steel? mild steel? hp coated? tuned length? custom? it all adds up

as to your rattle question, check the thread that Cris has spent alot of time writing up.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
