Im new here :)

Right now I have a GTS25 NA stock and I want to buy a Kakimoto exhaust system because of it's amazing but not excessively loud sound but which one is the best to buy

-Full mega N1

-regu 06 (i think)

and if I purchased one of these exhaust systems, how much of a power will I gain?

Thanks

kakimoto's are great. I would always recommend them for NA's but you have to remember its going to said noticeably different to a turbo skyline. The regu 06 will drone from a NA because its a cannon without the hotdogs etc etc. If you get the kakimoto R, part NO. (NS310) 70mm Pipe - 115mm Tail would be the best performance wise for a NA.

its up to you

cannon

muffler

Thanks mate, any idea what kind of kw i would be gaining from the kakimoto R?

Hannibalk1ng would be right there. Extractors would compliment the exhaust system. The main difference would be that buying a muffler would allow you to have more power through lower range (its better for street basically).

Getting that cannon catback Kakimoto make means the pipe is designed for turbo skylines so it will very droney and performance lacking on the street and even on the track you would have to reach the red line for it to feel different performance wise to a stock exhaust. Its designed for a turbo not NA, so unless its on the track at 6000-7000rpm it wont be able to be even as good as a stocker.

Thats why i would just get the muffler. Its like the stock design but functions better than it so its going to be better than it was before anyway.

Thanks for everything, I was just curious about the power gain but I dont need it. I just prefer the sound of the exhaust. The power is just a bonus for me.

Yeah I dont want much drone (a little is ok) so wat type of exhaust limits drone?

do not get a kakimoto exhaust i have one

when people get in the car for the first time they cannot believe how loud it is, ive never had someone in my car who hasnt made a comment about the exhaust.

spend the money at a exhaust shop and get a custom one made to suit your car

you will spend less, have a better note and a power increase

is it a cannon from Kakimoto or Kakimoto R??

the Kakimoto R model is quite and it can be loud when you but your foot flat but at least its not a loud drone as well......

Best best get one made up from any exhaust place. 2.5inch all the way and a cannon. probs looking at $ 350 installed.

but expect a drone while on the freeway doing 100kms

Thanks I'll take your advice and get one custom made.

Soon hopefully

LOL, the Full Mega N1 Hyper 2000 = Excessively loud, stock R34 with it was 113dB :P

It sounded tough though, on gearchanges it would "bark" and it scared small children. Downside was that after a good drive your ears would be ringing (true story)

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
