mufflers are for girls lol. Nice exhaust Nisskid, wish I'd thought of putting an angle on mine when I got my mate to do it. Btw how can you drive that on the street without scraping it off / attracting much attention!?

lol, well since its near the rear wheels its not a problem unless my wheels go each side of an object, and the object goes down the middle of the car. as far as attention, well, lol, being an RB20 its not obnoxiously loud, its a very smooth sound, i also run a ECV with it, which helps to an extent. usually i run my JunBL exhaust for the street though, which as i mentioned used to have flutes, but have been grinded off and will be replaced with twin 3" pipes, should be a bit quiter, as to be honest, for a street exhaust its quite loud.

i have been pulled over before with the straight through 3" tho, was an interesting conversation, luckily i was already on defect and had clearance to drive it, so technically there was nothing they could do.

i think his words were something like, "does this even have a muffler, wait.. does this even have a cat?" :D

haha i think ive got a bigger one somewhere, ill get some pics up of my new track exhaust once ive completed it, as i mentioned it will be using cut up versions of the flutes off my street system, it will be straight 3" piping from the dump, split into 2x 3", then the flutes go from 3" to 4"

personally i dont think it will look as good as straight pipes, but it will give a bit more volume, and on the track, especially in battles u want as much as u can get. nothing worse than not hearing ur engine over the guys next to u.

ahh sweet as... im doing mine for track too, gonna keep the cannon on for street as its fairly quiet and does the job fine. was thinking of getting a screamer made up for track too but its gonna be a pain in the ass having to change it over every time i head out.

you getting yours made up out of mild steel or s/s?

I was thinking along the lines of speed humps etc!

Haha yeah I did get defected for having a straight pipe once but the cop decided my blow off valve was more important, which is incidentally why you can see a flange after the bend on the pic I posted, so i can swap a Super Dragger muffler in for RWC.

I've decided now that I'll just get a whole legal exhaust though for RWC, rather than keep chopping and changing bits all the time!

race cats ftw too!

meh, nothing wrong with the screamer for street, just dont drive hard around suburbs. i run mine on the street, i also have a little attachment which i can put in that plumbs back the screamer which i use for regency, so i dont have to swap over the whole dump.

the exhaust im making will be out of a mixture of high grade s/s and lower grade s/s.

i dont really go over many speed bumps lol, i know where they are usually and avoid them at all costs. but because the lowest point is under the rear wheels its fine. the rest of the exhaust if anything is higher than a standard system as it doesnt have any mufflers.

ahh fair enough, yeah I had to get both my mufflers removed for RWC because they sat too low, but then the exhaust was too loud (gotta love NSW and the annual RWC checks). My whle exhaust, which used to be a Fujitsubo before being butchered, sits barely 100mm off the ground! I don't get scraping at all though, which is why I never have put my coilovers to their lowest setting.

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!

Dude go to twin 3" on the angle. I wanted twin 2.5 after seeing nisskids single pipe pics awhile back and thinking that twin 3" would be too much. I thought about it for awhile then decided to put my balls back in and get twin 3" anyway - now im glad I did cause they dont look that big once on :)

yeh twin 3" is alright, personally id rather for 2x 2.5" for the street, but ive got about 4-5 meters of 3" stainless here and no 2.5" so choice is pretty clear lol. but i think the 3" will look better, just stick out a bit more for the boys in blue.

btw u got pics of the twin 3"? is it straight or angle cut? was thinking about a tiny angle cut on the edge.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
