Hey all,

im sorting out what type of exhaust system i want for my car.

It has been suggested to me to get a 2.5 inch system as the car is NA.

Im probably gonna get a HKS or Apexi, but im not sure which....

Is there a way to get it done cheaper ?

The full system is to include extractors, highflow cat, and of course the tailpipe with of course a stainless muffler.

Im after a really loud sound when i gun it (as if it just all of a sudden opens a can of woopass and scares the crap outta the drivers near me) ... but when just driving around normally i want it to hum pretty much and i dont mind if its a little loud, but yeah. i think most of you know what i mean.

the whole DEEP, loud and "angry" sorta tone :cheers:

would anyone be able to give me prices on how much a HKS or Apexi system would cost. remeber its for an N/A not a turbs. and does anyone know of a place to get this installed and buy it from.

cheers for any help guys.

yeah i was thinkin of doin that, custom all the way with a big ass muffler. Wasnt sure how the prices would compare but. Id pretty much want the same specs as one of the performance HKS or Apexi systems, just made without the "name price".

anyone know of anyone who can do this and for what price roughly ?

K i had my exhaust on the n/a done a few months back

i got Perth exhaust center to fit a 2.5" magnaflow xforce exhaust with hi flow cat, resonator and 5"tip (stainless steel) and it is pretty damn loud! loud enough 2 turn heads and make ppl in my car ask if its about 2 take off! :) cost bout $600 if i remember

HKS and Apexi exhausts for n/a are harder 2 find i was told

at $600 you will be able to include the extractors and high flow cat well within the $1400 for a name brand one, and the magnaflows sound awesome

especially on a straight 6

go to quick fit in morley and ask pat what he can do

I got mine done at Quick fit, Pat is a legend and so is Aaron.

I got a 2.5" Cat back system, mandrel bent with a 2.5" Genie Stainless Steel muffler angled and also a resonator. Sounds bloody great and goes alot better too. Very happy with the job and the service i got there.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
