Flutes on drift cars, cannons for track and street cars.

Ryan

This man speaketh the truth!

Anything's gotta be better than the vacuum cleaner on there now. Concentrate on getting it to flow well before worrying about what it looks like :(

Hahaha so true, Chef. It's gradually getting worse, too!! I don't think I have anything left inside the cat as it's all burnt up!

And the rattling is gradually getting worse!

Collapsed centre muffler + centre baffle + dodgy cat = :D

Booking it in to get a full turbo-back system in early December!

I personally think cannons look best on the 32 GT-Rs aslong as they arent too big or ricey.

Dump pipes (if you mean the muffler with the downturned tip) look phat aswell..., thats the plan for my DR when im back from China next year ;)

flutes are nice, but bit overdone these days, for the track i run just a single 3" pipe out the back, looks great. only reason i still run the flutes are that they have the JunBL muffler with them and i cant really be f**ked changing the tips.

Dragging up an old thread, was wondering if anyone knew of an exhaust shop which could knock me up some flutes? I've been looking everywhere, and the local Carline reckons he couldn't be able to make something with a 3" flange diverging into flutes.

I'm surprised at a lot of the responses ITT, I think that single cannons are overdone and boring, Super Drager type gas bottles are only good for getting a RWC and normal mufflers with tips just don't suit. I do however like the twin catback / cannon thing, I imagine it would be the most expensive exhaust option though.

I've only seen one car with flutes around here and I reckon they look awesome on JDM cars, not neccessarily just drift cops! I've attached a pic of my current straight pipe exhaust, was thinking of putting them on at the last flange.

lol why people are still voting i dont know...

But this is in the SA section, so unless your willing to travel, we wont have any half decent ideas :D

AM Performance, Exhaust Technology, Everlast, etc etc etc

well a mate has very similar ones on his HR-31 and they look great on it, only problem is trying to convince him to lend them to me for fear that I wouldn't give them back lol.

I've emailed Exhaust Technologies about the flutes though, otherwise I'd probably go twin 2.5" on an angle, cause straight pipe looks shite!

yeh mark @ et does nice work, mate just had twin 3" pipes put in his by them, look and sound great!

im getting twin 3.5" pipes soonish too... love the look and sound!

i am so thinking of going the flutes now on the line

I had never even seen flutes until today :S i havnt seen 1 at all on the road... screw getting a cannon now

That first pic is a bit excessive of a flute lol

I'll be in the market for an exhaust aswell soon... looking at something twin tip/flute - looks more subtle and clean.. cannons are a wee bit overdone/homo - too many homo cars have them - lancers, excels, shitboxes... etc

haha my shitbox has 1...its louder than my skyline rofl

i am so thinking of going the flutes now on the line

do it!

group buy? :(

haha, hope you don't have a problem with lots of attention though as they are LOUD!! unless you have them coming out of a muffler or have a damper in there somewhere, something similar to x-force varex mufflers.

    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
