Hi Guys,

As a gift I just got a new Trust power evo TR II 94mm V-band exhaust for my 32 GTR, so I am selling the exhaust I had ready to go on it. It's an 80mm Kakimoto stainless system. It's cat back, in 2 sections. It has a hotdog type resonator in the front bit and just 1 canon at the back. It does have a removable baffle/silencer too in case you need to fly under the radar for a bit, and the baffle is designed so that it's barely visible when fitted. Kakimoto exhausts are world renowned as the best sounding exhausts for a GTR. and they are made with the quality of material and welding that is typical of the good japanese exhausts. It's the full stainless one too not the mild piping/stainless muffler type. I'm asking $420 pick-up in sydney, or organise your courier to pick up from me. The exhaust does have a small dent in the front section and it could use a nice clean and polish. but apart from that it's all good. :)

Pics to come tomorrow. $420 is a bargain for a Jap stainless 80mm system that currently would cost well over $1600 to buy new from japan.

hey rich if i sell my exhaust ill take your exhaust off your hands mate, so is this a 3" or 3.5" and can you also get me a few pics

cheers tony

Hi jakez, not sure if it will fit GTST correctly or not. I would guess that it will. it's the cat-back section so should be the same between 32 GTR and GTST. not sure if it's mega N1 or which type. but it would be something like that. it's 80mm all the way, 115mm tip, with the proper kakimoto removable baffle/silencer, all stainless.

it's this one, which yes, seems to be mega N1. (picture this one, but used/dirty/in need of a good polish!)

it has the red label on the side of the tip like this:

and has the nice baffle like this:

from looking at the pics it looks like the old version of the current n1p001va8.jpg

the only difference I can find is that they have recently changed to 4 bolt flange from 2 bolt flange. everything else is the same.

So get in quick. It's about a quarter of the price of what it costs new. Sure it's not exactly mind condition with a small dent on the front section underneath, and a fair bit of dirt soot etc and needs a polish to make it look new again, but hey, it's a quarter the price! the sound of a kakimoto race type exhaust on a GTR has to be heard at least once in your life! perfect match. >_<

oh, and tony, the jap sizes are all in mm, not inches. it's 80mm which is bigger than 3inch but probably a bit smaller than 3.5inch.

yeh i used to have the same exhaust on my 32 but had mild steel piping...awesome exhausts and they sound like sex on any rb. Are you from melbourne?

what it's like under the wrapping. tbh i've never unwrapped the whole thing since I bought it, but if you want to come check it out I can upwrap it all for a local buyer. I just left it like that as it'll save me re-wrapping it for post of pick-up.

bump. keen to get rid of this over the weekend. I have so much stuff lying around it's not funny. :yes:

how does the baffle work, I am going to DMV tomorrow to get some permits and it is wayyyyyyyyyy to loud at the moment, prolly cos of the mines stainless front and decat but meh, the kaki sounds horn I reckon

it just reduces the pipe diameter at the end of the muffler. there are pictures of it above. basically they just strangle the fk out of your exhaust. lower noise and lower power too sadly. only useful as a temporary measure and wont help you pass any inspections etc.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
