GTR - Exhaust Confusion?? Front Pipe, Engine Pipe or Dump Pipe?

[meshmesh]

Guys,

I'm really lost here... :confused: , Trying to organise an exhaust system for the GTR R33, current I've got form the cat back & want to do the front section..

Some places call it "front pipe", then some say "do you mean the engine pipe?", & on top of that do you mean "from the turbos".. :bonk:

I have attached some pics, from UAS site.. But all I want is to replace the front section, The dumps I'm not worried about at this stage coz I'm running stock turbos. But a place in Victoria "mufflers Now" apparantley have a 3in system from the turbos back including the dumps, but this system has no flex joint.

Please if someone can tell me what the name is or what I should be asking for I would really appreciate it.

UAS Site calls these Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 Front Pipes

UAS Site calls these ones UAS Stainless 2 1/2 Inch Engine Pipes with Flex Pipe

Thanks.

The exhaust is split into three pieces. Dump pipes come off the turbo's and are about 30cm long (pretty short). They connect to the Front pipes (like the ones in your pics) and go from the Dump pipes to the Cat. Then the rest of the exhaust is the cat back - like what you have at the moment.

Adding just the front pipes will give you an increase in power, but if you want more power, go the Dump pipes and the Front pipes.

Thanks Jay,

I can get a 3" system which includes the dumps & front pipe from "mufflers now" but worried coz this system has no flex joint, & also told that 3" is too big & would drone alot. Where as most front pipe systems seem to be dual 2.5" into a single 3". I'm not worried about the droning that much but thought the benefits of the dump included in this system would help alot more.

i was also lookin at a flexi joint front pipe when i was doin mine, but the guy that i ended up goin to said that u only really need the flexi joint if ur engine is mounted across the engine bay( as in not stright the middle but 90deg from wheel to wheel if u get what i mean) and if ur engines pullin huge hp due to the way the engine twists under load. then again i only drive a gtst and not a gtr:D:D maybe i should shut up now..lolz

Sorted it all out , That's what happens when you end up following a referral from SAU, & 3 in 10 refferals are half wits. The last shop as I stated in my thread above, was talking about a GT-T pipes, until I explained for the tenth time, it's a GTR Sunshine, you know the twin turbo... :Bang: "ooooh" he says, "we do skylines all the time, we're the biggest in the country, the system I was talking about is for the Single turbo." His next question was "what's your budget we can do you front pipes for around $1000." when I ummmed & rrrrrd "with dis-belief", he suspected my budget was not that much, so he says, "some people only earn $400pw & some earn a couple of grand, if your budget is tight we can do you a system for around $400~ but it will be a cheap system"... I replied "mate, I wish I earned $400pw, I'm on the dole?? how much can you a system for now". Then I just hung up.

Thanks heeps guys.

also the flexi joint costs a shitload more and u dont really need it....if i exhuast system is made for a certain car it will fit. if not then the company hasent done a good job.
