Was constantly worrying about my car's exhaust getting EPA-ed since i am always moving in and out of the city pretty often, and truely recieved one just a couple of days ago. :D

I don't wanna keep worrying about getting EPA-ed nor do i have the time to waste going around to clear the EPA.

I am seeking help or recommendation for an aftermarket exhaust system which would pass EPA, and something that i can stick on my car for good. And preferably also a workshop that i can get it fixed. Am located in North Melb.

Am not really worried about performance, would like a nice tone that will clear EPA without having to swap out to the stockie. So any recommendations will be much appreciated :P

This has been covered MANY times. I had an R34GTT and ran a Fujitsubo Legalis system. It was great for power and passes EPA also - I know as I had it done. I was running 3" from the turbo back too and still passed :D

Looked nice enough too -

I'm sure there are local systems around though. Others will comment.

adzmax.

thanx i saw your recommendation on that in previous threads, but that was a couple of years ago.

am unsure if new systems are out :D

anyway thanks, have a few questions regarding that and will direct it into your mailbox.

Fujitsubo 3" turbo back is what I got n what most r34s come over here with from what I've seen. They r nce n mild and will pass EPA unless ur unlucky like me n get tested in an underground carpark lol but yeh definatly get that

Wow, I like your car, very clean and well styled. +1

Trust PE2, very quiet on idle and cruising (and thats 3" turbo back)

Very nice note when flooring it. Looks good as well.

.

would it still be quiet at 4800 rpm?

thats what rev we need to be at and measured for EPA

most people would recommend a pe2 for its quiet yet nice bark on load, but i would definetely recommend somehting bigger and less restrictive for a 300kw+ setup if thats wat ur looking for.

if you a size 8 shoe, you buy a 9 to let yourself grow into them. same rule applies for modified cars.......for me at least.

Hi Jap Muscle~

I don't have a 300kw+ setup, mine is stock :thumbsup: Not looking to readily modify the car as of yet, due to time restriction.

other than a 3" turbo back piping with a 5" cannon at the end. I failed the noise emission because when backing off the accelerator it echos off the 5". so right now, something nice and would meet legal requirements would be splendid for me :thumbsup:

anyway UPDATES for the thread,

have gave themufflerman a ring, and set a date to go down on wednesday... will be back to this thread for updates :blink:

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
