Yup, agree. I too prefer the nismo. For my car it's a bit overkill anyways. I couldn't see anything when I looked down a legalis, where as the nismo defiantly had the step down in it. Just goes to show, if you want outright and performance, go and see a fabricator like Scotty, then you know what your getting in regards to size. The GTR guys found this on their jap systems too!

The twin Nismo is 70mm internal to the muffler, where as the Fujitsubo has twin 70mm in the rear muffler. Theoretically the Nismo should be quieter then. I wonder how much it will restrict flow...

Hey guys just did the brake cut mod today (simple and cheap) and after having the stag for around 8mths the need for more power is starting to arrive. I think exhaust is next but I love the fact my m35 is so quiet but spanks most cars with no fuss so I'm thinking dump pipe but the rest of exhaust standard? Will this give a good increase in power or would a full exhaust be way better? Money is also a bit of an issue as I don't think the missus is fully buying the " it's for better fuel economy line". Any advise would be aprechiated.

If you were looking at doing one part of the exhaust the dump would be it. They have an extra Cat in them that really just doesn't flow. But really to take full advantage you would want to put a full system thru.

There are some quite exhaust options, for example the single outlet nismo that I have. It's not much louder then stock.

I did a 3" dump pipe on a standard exhaust, and it does make a difference; the stock dump is massively restrictive.

I'd advise a dump & front pipe with hiflow cat in 3", then reduce to 2.5 and into the stock system, if you need to keep it under the radar with the missus.
There would be a good gain in kw and torque, but virtually no change in exhaust note.

Has anyone ever had a resonator installed on their M35? If so, how did you go about it and what were the results?

I've got a Kakimoto R catback with custom dump pipe and front pipes but it's just too loud.

I'd like to add a resonator but was told there isn't enough straight sections in the system to fit one.

Any ideas?

Cheers

A resonator? What you want is a Helmholtz chamber, like the Nismo/Fujitsubo cat backs run. You won't find many exhaust shops that know what they are...

Easiest way is to fit a Varex muffler on the end, or run an active exhaust valve with a bypass muffler.

Do you still have a Cat in your set up?

Just asking as I have picked up a Kakimoto N1 and am wondering how loud this is going to be...

As Scotty mentioned Helmholtz chambers feature on a few M35 Jap shelf exausts, fujitsubo one looks like this.

Maybe see if you can get someone to fab up one for you?

Thanks again Scott for that. I did consider the Helmholtz chamber but thought it would cost too much to fabricate a custom one.

I might ask around more.

Dmyze - Yep I have a cat which is connected to my front pipe. The Kakimoto R is pretty damn loud but it's the cabin drone which kills it for me.

It's even more of an issue since I have a 2 year old plus another on the way.... I need it as quiet as possible.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Does a new dump and front pipe do much for exhaust noise?? Bit curious because i wouldnt consider my kaki cat back loud or droney at all really..

If you had a de-cat front pipe it would make a huge difference. both hte cat and front pipe will have cats inside them standard.

The Kakimoto N1 is loud as f**k lol, Excuse my french, i have one on my car atm. The drone on the inside of the car is also loud tho it gives a good idle tone. I can post a video for sound/to see what it looks like if ya like?

Damn, I've heard the one from the Russian guy Leki on YouTube, if you wanna put up a clip that would be awesome, cheers man.

The girlfriend is gunna love this I can tell, lol :/

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
