That front pipe does look very nice indeed... although I much prefer my Kakimoto front pipe, especially considering the price for the Maki unit

That front pipe (Garage Mac) is what about 11 people have now. One was bought off IM and 10 more made from this design.

Works well and gives lots more low to mid range power.

You mean dump pipe, yes?

haha you're pretty happy with that purchase :whistling:

do i need to go to westside again and get em to make up a bunch or what??

10 or more? or i can get beau to make em up at another shop?

I reakon you good attack this again.....pretty sure there's a fresh crop of M35 owners out there look for more OMF.......G!!!!!!....maybe keep one for yourself this time!...lol

hey did you call our ECU mate!!!

Hey Craig, will call them tomorrow.. didnt want to like call em all in the one day if everyone was doing so..

He will do the dumps again. if we can get 10, and they wont be in stainless, since it was a c.u.n.t to work with dew to that pipe split flange size thing he did..

Has anyone put the fujitsubo legalis R catback exhaust on an auto M35?

What do they sound like? I'm scared of giving an auto any extra note as I've never owned an auto turbo'd car before.

Lots of guys have. They sound great. Not to loud. Nice throaty growl. I'm really hoping to change my nismo exhaust to one of them one day.

The best note by far, and nearly legal noise. Great quality system Tom.

Which Nismo do you have Brick? The Single outlet? Or the twin highflow one Fujitsubo made?

The single would be a fair bit quieter I imagine. I scored the Nismo twin tip, I will be dropping from the 3.5 inch back to 80mm and a quieter system, hopefully with a lack of drone. It's worth it I think, even if It drops the power a bit.

Yeah, the single outlet system does blow. Sounds like a Vacuum. I remember Iain's had one on it.

Doesn't compare to the dual outlet, or the other cat back systems. I think the pipe diameter is smaller too. The Nismo or legalis are the pick of the bunch IMO. There are cannon type styles to, if you like that look.

Check some of the vids on my Youtube channel.

Fijutsubo Legalis - on my old NM35

Nismo (version 1 for M35) - on my old NM35

Nismo (version 2 for M35) - on my PNM35 with stock cats and with aftermarket cats

Legalis will flow more than the Nismo that Brick has (my old one) as it is 76mm as opposed to the 70mm Nismo.

Alex, Iain never had a Nismo exhaust.

The nismo duel outlet one does have a restrictor in the back of the rear muffler, so for outright flow, I think the legalis is a better option too.

What did Iain have, was it one of those nissan sports exhaust ones?

Yeah, he had a Nissan sports exhaust.

Legalis may flow slightly better looking at the exit of the uffler to the tips - each tip comes from its own hole in the muffler as opposed to the Nismo which has one hole for the two tips, BUT what is the radius of the hole/holes? Is the Nismo single hole actually a larger area than the two Legalis holes combined? Also, since the piping is the same, it all comes down to the design of the baffling within the muffler, and ripping open a Nismo muffler that can no longer be replaced does not appeal. You could of course get their flow measured if you really wanted, but I like the Nismo for the tip design and the sound which has more character than the Legalis IMO.

Can't go wrong with either though.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
