No.

Your cat will cut out some noise, but not much. The resonator will cut out the most and cannon only a little.

Ok, thanks for the reply. =]

But if i put a center muffler in somewhere it definatley make it quiter yes? im only asking about the center muffler cause my exhaust mech, told me that there was no room? for a oval shaped muffler?? this true? do u know anyone that has put a center muffler on my type of car? pics?

thanks soo much man, HAPPY NEW YEAR!

The centre oval resonator/muffler will cut out the most noise. But also if you get a decent flowing oval rear muffler that will help a lot to reduce noise.

I removed my centre oval resonator (xforce system also) for clearance because is hung to low after I lowered the car. At the same time the car was pretty quiet with it fitted, but after it was removed it was a fair bit louder but doesn't seem to be overly loud in my case.

If you've got noise issues and your lacking space underneath your car for the exhaust, maybe you should inquire about getting a hotdog (one of those long tubular resonators) and getting a decent oval rear muffler. I hear Magna Flow make decent flowing rear mufflers, these also steer away from having the regular cannon look.

From what your saying though, you've already got a centre resonator, an oval one. That should be adequate to cut down noise, is it still too loud is it?

If so maybe look into just the rear muff as I mentioned above.

hmmmm...the thing is right, i bought that 4inch xforce stainless steel cannon for $180. i really dont want to go and buy another rear muffler. Im sure there is a way to get it quite just under legal limit? my plan was to make the 3inch quite and be able to have the 4inch cannon..... :action-smiley-069: You mentioned you had a oval center muffler/resonator? do you own a r33 gtst? if you do have a gtst then i can fit a oval center muffler right? im not planning to lowering the car cause ill be putting 19's to fill the gueards up abit.

thanks again man. =]

    • Went to a drift practice day at a local circuit (held on the reserve parking area behind the grandstand) for the first time in about 15 years. Some kei cars were drifting as well, a not so surprising Suzuki Carry truck, and two 1st gen Daihatsu Copens that were converted to rear wheel drive(!) using Daihatsu Boon X4 transfer case, prop shaft and rear diff, obviously omitting the front driveshafts. They looked really fun to slide. I heard that they cost "about half" as much as a Nissan Silvia etc to run.  On the track 'Tech M' a local BMW tuning garage had a customer track day. Mainly recent models but there was one E36 which looked ancient among all the current models. It was cool watching the drifting and then turning around and seeing random people thrashing their M3/4s  central-circuit-drift-practice-2025-05-18-long-yt.mp4
    • I prefer it with those wheels (sacrilege?) 😋 Here's a photo of a fully original one for reference. The price is $350K....
    • I would like to keep it around 15k but if I need more to make it reliable and not have to worry about the car breaking I can go more. It's my project car so I'm just trying g to figure out what needs to be in it i know basic things like turbo cams injectors I'm just unsure of the size and the specifics so I'm spending alot of time on Google and its mostly rb25 and rb26 not alot on neo
    • This. They would need some tricky maneouvering to keep the income out of the country (the US). Which isn't helpful if that's where you want the income to end up.
