yes and no mate, in the end, we drive turbo cars, the exhaust needs get to out, the better you can make it flow the more efficient your engine will be.

3.5-4ich exhuasts seam to work on GTRs.

i had a 4inch exhaust on my gtr, it was loud... So i did alot of research into how the exhaust system works, and this is what i came up with to find that happy medium.

The way i see it, the exhaust is more dence when its hot, therefore it needs more area. So it needs to be bigger closest to the engine and can become smaller as it gets further away.

my exhuast consists of,

* Tomei dumps,

* Twin tuned length 3inch front pipes

* Into a 4inch merge,

* The 4inch carrys for 350mm than falls into a 4-3.5inch tapered cone which is disguised as a cat (cough cough)

* Than from the "CAT" it flows into a Ti Tomei Catback.

So in the end i have around 700mm of 4inch...........

This equals a bullshit high flowing exhaust system, which is not that loud. (considering)

pic of the front pipes i made, they tuned length within, 20mm

Equal length keeps the exhaust pulses arriving at regularly spaced intervals, it's ment be as if, there's a slight gap between the exhaust pulse, so the first pipe pushes its exhuast out, than he second pipe pushes its exhuast in behide the first and it just repeats.

that's the theory behide it. It's ment to improve response. They also make the exhaust sound awesome.

But to be completely honest, I seen countless Jap and some Aussie shops do tuned length front pipes, so I thought F it, I challenge myself to make a set up to there standards..... And that's what I did.

Took me around 6hours, cost me about 180bux so a awesome investment f you ask me.

Ah yes. Makes sense!

Look great!

Just got my car back from Windsor exhaust, new 3.5 inch catback stainless steel system done :)

Used to be 3 inch then 3.5 after resonator then 3 inch out the cannon :blink:

Is a bit quieter than before so rocking stock yay!

The rear diffuser, once refitted cleared everything fine, they do great work!!!

This mob also did Karcher's VH45 v8 180sx exhaust.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
