Just wondering if Lukey exhaust systems and their panel filters are worth getting for my GTS-T?

Could they make me a full exhaust system? I'm talking about replacing everything!

I prefer to source quality Australian made products than paying the extra premium for Japanese aftermarket parts. I believe we can make good parts too.

Let me know what you think before I lay down my coin.

Cheers.

Lukey make friggin mad exhausts.

I had one on my Datsun 280ZX and if F**King growled hard.

A rumble on idle and a roar on full throttle.

Yes I believe it was custom made 2.25" full straight though with an aftermarket exhaust manifold as well.

Sweet. I knew they were good but I didn't know how they would go on a Skyline. I'll definetly give it a bash.

Same with the panel filter. If no one has heard of or used them then I will try and be different. Could go either way but worth a shot. I should have one in by the end of the day.

Now last but not least... Just who would be good to get the exhaust fitted from? I need someone who knows Lukey and GTS-T's that only does quality work.

I would just stick to the Japanese brands.

They don't cost that much anyway.

Well I have been using the Lukey panel filter for almost a week now. And I can definitely say it was worth the buy. Much better power in the higher revs and a noticeable sucking/popping sound around 5,000rpm. And there is no increase in induction noise in the lower revs so you can still hear the turbo whistle.

Anyway I will still be going for a pod filter set up later on. I will all so be going for a JJR turbo back exhaust too.

Ah ok...

I thought you were still deciding on which brand of panel filter you want to get...

If Lukey does the job then its sweet!

So many jap part shops have stacks and stacks of jap catbacks, I wonder what it stopping you from getting one?

I want a turbo back exhaust from the one company. If I did that from the likes of lets say HKS... Then I would be broke.

And sorry I should have been more specific.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
