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...

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
