Guys

Does anyone know what mods are required to put an exhaust designed for a R34 GTR into a R33 GTR?

I am tired of clearance and noise issues on my R33 GTR and am looking at a nismo NE1 which should in theory should provide better clearance and be acceptable noise wise without stealing too much power. Problem is I can only seem to source units for a R34 GTR.

All help appreciated.

Cheers

Should be bolt on/off for the most part. Depending on the exhaust you *might* have to modify the hanger mounts a tiny bit.

I'm certain i have a R34 GTR cat-back exhaust on my R33 at the moment as 2 of the hangers didnt line up exactly when we were installing it a couple months back and the exhaust hangers had no signs of being modified.

As a result the exhaust doesn't quite sit perfectly. The only thing was we had to modify one of the exhaust hangers to get it to sit right (literally just heated it up and bent it to suit).

Given i'd just blown my pervious exhausts muffler apart, and replacement was $100 as a temp fix - modification was the only option :D

Whats the incredibly obvious answer?

I'm looking at catback system.

Anyone? :) direct answer.

Shake the Magic Eight Ball and the response will come back "outlook bleak". Although if just doing the cat back, it might fit with some minor mods and bashing. It's unlikely to be an ideal scenario, however.

Why don't you buy an exhaust for an R33 GTR instead?

I've got the Kakimoto system off my 34 GTR sitting in the garage.

If anyones got a 33 GTR they want to trial fit it to check the fitment there welcome to come over.

I live Brisbane Nth side...

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
