yeah i thought the same .. heard the r33 fits up perfectly to the series 2

Guys are you confusing the bell-mouth (non split) with the split pipes here? I contacted JJR and they told me the splits have issues, need modification to fit properly, but that the bellmouth pipes (non-split) fit stagea without modification.

That's it, that's what I'm after for my S2! I'm in same boat - want to buy a jap system but they're all cannons. Do you have the part number of the rear x-force muffler? Stuff with twin tips like that seems pretty rare...

C'mon guys don't be weak.. Go twin 4" cannons :yes:

I've got a 3" exhaust on my car going through to the twin 4" cannons and the young kids across the road recon my car is a beast caus it shakes there windows when i start it up lol

I also want to get a JJR Bellmouth dump.. not sure what dump i have on mine but i want something thats gonna free flow.. also i want to see if i can get 3" pipe with some mandrel bends for an intake pipe for the turbo.

Quiet, but with a nice deep rumble while cruising... Open her up & the volume increases a fair bit.

Nowhere near shaking windows though :D

Stock dump because it contains the pre-cat which I have found it enough if you are selective about which fuel you use.

example: I filled up using Vortex98 last week and for the first time, my car smelt like rotten egg. Used 74L, put 15" of Vpower in, smell is much less.

Will be filling up tomorrow with ether Ultimate or Vpower. Smell should be gone completely.

Well I got the same problem as you when I did mine

JJR Bellmouth - didn't fit properly - exacly the same problem (and yes I brought the Stagea one) so it was rewelded

Custom mid Muffler

Xforce 3" muffler with twin 3" twips

Sounds very good, has a nice exhaust note, still has that skyline sound and it's not too loud to be cop bait

xforce rear muffler numbers is MP01 . if you go to there webpage and click on the universal mufflers. wont be hard to spot it.

my middle muffle is faily big. got a nice note to it. cant hear it when i open it up tho. but been told it sounds nice from behind.

its going back today to get the front pipe fixed, gonna ask him to take out the muffler also .. see how it sounds then if its too 'droney', ill put it back on when i do the 100k service

on that note . ima go and make a video recording with twin mufflers so anyone interested can hear what it sounds like

C'mon guys don't be weak.. Go twin 4" cannons :ermm:

Cool mate, I'm heading down there on Thursday. Finally getting my spitfires put in then increase boost and back on the dyno! Hopefully i get some decent results.

That sounds awesome... thanks for that. Can't really tell very accurately because of the auto-volume thing on video cameras, but it sounds pretty quiet when you compare to the voices which seem to drown out the exhaust? Do you know the part number of your centre muffler?

um .... i will have it off the car by tomorrow. can always check the invoice and let you know when i pic up my car.

yeah you cant hear it as you would say on a r34 with cannon. idle is quiet, little bit of RB rumble, can tell the difference between the stock for sure,

new vid should be up thursday ... if not weekend latest with just the rear muffler

damn if only my work would allow youtube access...wanna compare you car to my car since it has roughly the same setup...the only exception that i only have one mid muffler

Niiice... do you know where you can get a Legalis R cat-back system? They're 3 inch and fully stainless aren't they? The best I've been able to find is an exhaust shop that has done several stageas apparently, who said a stainless custom system would be around $850 + cost of exhaust tip(s) ($80 +). That in 3" stainless.

Edit: OOPS mis-read - you can only get that system for M35 :)

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
