Before anyone starts, yes I barely know anything and yes I have gone back and read other posts.

I found this video on youtube (

), this guy has a custom built 2.5" mild steel mandrel bent, high flow cat, high flow resonator and high flow muffler with 4" tip, and it sounds pretty good.

so what i wanted to know was, will he gain much?

and if you change the tip into a canon will there be a dramatic difference in sound, like a huge difference?

You will gain a little bit of power going from the stock R34 N/A exhaust which I think is 2" in diameter to a mild steel 2.5" exhaust. You will gain a bit more power if you have an aftermarket exhaust all the way through from the extractors to cannon. High flow cat and resonator will add to the performance. Dont expect wild gains with this setup alone though.

The cannon solely will make very little difference to performance, you will most likely gain some rumble!

gettin lots of noticable power outta an N/A costs lots n lots of money... unless ur aiming to get as much power as possible outta the car then just have a nice 2.5", mild steel, mandrel bent cat back with a big tip or cannon... doin stuff like extractors n hi - flo cats costs abit more for not much real benefits unless ur squeezing power outta it

all i noticed was it made it drone 100x more lol... its pretty pointless doing a really hi-flowing cat back n leaving the extractors stock as yeh they will be more of a restriction than a good stock cat

^^ pretty sure the standard is 2.25"

I've done extractors, high flow ressy, high flow cat, 2.5" mild mandrel bent steel with a 3" tip.

Downlow power is the same but once it hits the higher rev range, around 3000-4000rpm it takes off compared to before

Cost me around $2,500 including DKNE extractors.

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
