My mate refers all his customers to Exhaust Techniques. Apparently they do a great job and explain everything to you so you know exactly what they're doing and why.

I haven't used them, but when the time comes, I'll be going there ;)

I got my exhaust done at Exhaust techniques. All i can say is im not happy with the quality of the welding done. They asked what i want done, I told the sales manager the muffler i wanted, and when i came back it was nothing like i said. If i had to do it again AAA near the city are the best ive heard.

I had my s/steel exhaust done at D&T Performance.

I'm happy with the note and loudness of the exhaust all though it is slightly louder than an average Jap exhaust.

No droning.

One thing I wasn't that happy with was the finish of the weld where the turbo flange welds up to the pipe. There is also a slight raise in the shape of a V in front of the compressor wheel due to the way they bent the pipe to mate up.

depends on the one you buy. I originally fitted a stainless N1 cat back - very loud as it only has a small rear muffler - but good power.

Changed to a Nismo dual muffler, which is very quiet, but a little less power (noise and back pressure are somewhat related). fujitsubo is another that make very good, quiet exhausts, but they still bark when you get angry, they just dont wake the dead:) There are several others that will do the same.

Generally, if it has dual mufflers ( and i am not talking about a skinny little claytons muffler ) they will be quite reasonable.

Interesting too, that I got nearly all my money back on the N1 exhaust, a good condition jap made exhaust will hold its value very well.

I got mine done at AAA exhaust. They have a mandrel bending machine on site so that means they dont have to sit there and weld up prebent pipes.

I got mine done full SS turbo back for 1100 from them. Top quality work, not a weld insight, wouldnt think about going anywhere else frankly.

You sound pretty happy with AAA, do you think they would do a split dumpipe aswell?, best way is to ring and ask them i suppose. Price sounds cheap, especially when most places are looking at close to the 1700 mark for a full stainless system. What kind of muffler did you get put on?, the usuall barrel style muffler?

Yeah Im pretty happy with them! Whats funny is they supply the mandrel bends to places like ET and D&T.

I got a cannon style rear muffler, Super Cat brand.. Its good enough. Fully polished S/S. I didnt see the point paying another 300 for an Apexi one. Also the price included a S/S 3" mid muffer aswell. (Proper one, not a resonator!)

The dump pipe I have is just a plain ol 3" one. It was $400 but I think what you can do Is buy a FLYN split dump or something like that, bring it in, and get them to make up the rest from there.

They really did some top quality work. I went to them after I saw a friends S13 with the same exhaust on his car. ld recommend them to anyone.....

Well I cant quantitate the noise really. But all I know is that i've compared it to a few other SR20s w/o a center muffler and mines alot quieter. Whether its legal or not, I dont know. Its still probably not. Since when is any 3" free flowing exhaust fully legal? haha

And yes, it included the dump/front pipe too. :P

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
