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

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
