im currently looking round for an exhaust for my stock r33 gtst.

havent got any modifications to it, im just about to start them.

first would be the exhaust, which brings me to ask you guys,

are the exhausts they sell at autobarn for the r33 gtst any good? im asking this cos i get autobarn items dirt cheap. would like to get value for my money.

this is not the muffler, it is an actual exhaust, however i dont know if it is from turbo back, or etc.

recommendations???

ta guys.

(next step is probably an intercooler in case anyone needs to know etc)

really depends what you are after, loud and "look at me" or bit more timid? dump and 3 inch front pipe, plus hi-flow cat are a must then from there back depends on how loud you want it. What brand is the autobarn stuff?

get any 3" cat back exhaust to suit a skyline then get yourself a BATMBL (bos importing) 3" split dump/frontpipe to match up with the 3" catback system

your local exhaust shop should be able to do you a decent 3" catback system with good flow for around $800 fitted

Yes those DRIFT branded autobarn exhaust are good value, far better that your local exhaust shop jobbie... they come with lifetime warranty etc...

i would not be happy to have the name plastered all over the car if i thought it was shit.

Autobarn can get all the major exhaust's that you would be able to get. Trust, Blitz, HKS (though the HKS ones are a bit hard to get now), Drift, X-Force etc. So it's not so much "Are autobarn exhausts any good" its wether the particular branded exhaust is any good.

BLITZ nur-r ($1000ish) is the nest performer, the GREDDY PEII ($799) is nice and quiet round town yet opens up under full noise the HKS is just stupid price wise locally so i would forget it.

these prices were accurate when i set them at autobarn head office proir to resigning in december.

Hey guys, sorry for the minor hijack, but BATMBL isn't selling the dump/front pipes at the moment (supplier issues), so what would you guys recommend looking at next? I've looked at the JJR's split dumps, are they any good, and what's the diff b/w a split dump and a single? haha too many questions :thumbsup:

Split dump seperates the exhaust gases from the internal wastgate and joins it up near the end of the dump pipe. Should increase spool up and make more power.

All in one, or also called a bellmouth dump pipe, doesn't do this and all the gases just go through the same pipe.

go for a one peice front/dump pipe, its a bellmouth, spools up quicker, and when connected to a decent exhaust

system, they sound great, i picked my mild steel 1 peice up from a local sa supplier for $375.

On a stock turbo the split dump pipes are better, they are ment to make more power. However on most aftermarket turbos the split dumps cause overboosting problems (mine did) and most people then go a bellmouth style dump.

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      I am going to chime in here and say that is very bad advice for a built motor, making decent power of 400kW+ Especially if the rings have been gapped on the looser side. The more power you make the heavier you need your oil to be to be able to maintain that suspension between the moving parts, if not you'll have journals and bearings making love and grenade a motor. Remember that all moving parts inside the motor aren't ball bearing and are journal bearings and require oil to separate the surfaces from contacting.

      ENR34 - Leaking Transfer Case

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      ENR34 manual transmission transfer cases are 33100-23U00 which is shared with all of the R32/R33 GT-Rs and GTS-4s. And the C34 Stagea. Do not bother with automatics, that is a huge effort to swap and the car will be worse for it. And an automatic transfer case does not have the right housing for the shifter which comes out the back of the transmission and goes through the transfer case. I already posted my response on reddit but if you didn't see it there here it is: You have almost certainly damaged the transfer case, the only question is how badly. Nobody can tell you how bad without more information. If you have a giant hole in the transfer case pissing out all the transfer case fluid then you need a new one. If it's not that bad then the only question is whether you burned up the clutches. Drain the transfer case oil and inspect for metal on the drain plug magnet. Small black filings are normal. Big chunks of metal or a ton of black fuzzies not so much. Fluid should be nice and red. Any other color isn't great. If the color is reasonably red and there's not a bunch of clutch material discoloring it or anything like that you probably got away with insubstantial excess wear not worth trying to fix. If you have to rebuild or replace the transfer case keep in mind you have to pull the transmission to get it off.

      Can I suggest a 15W50 oil is too heavy. Its a brand new engine - you should be able to run something like a 10W30. Shove some steel wool into your catch can  - more technically "oil/air separator" - so that the oil vapour has something to condense on.
