hey have my second defect inspection tomorrow not sure if i will pass,

not too long ago purchased a 5" HKS hi power catback exhaust system for a series 2 R33 gts-25t went straight in un restricted and @ 3,300 rpm it read at 97db but on the side i was only revving it roughly at 3k had a 1-2mm peice of sheet metal with a 30mm hole or so drilled into it so it can restrict the flow... now the exhaust seems a bit loud and it has to be 90db at 3,300rpm any ideas on a quick silence fix i been told to chuck a piece of chicken wire inside?

any ideas much appreciated :)

unfortunately not =[ dont know anyone with a import or a silencer to fit the huge exhaust the restrictor has quietened it down a bit but i dont think enough need a kinda quick fix as its booked in for 3:30 tomorrow any other ideas sorry for the trouble...

cheers chris

unfortunately that's not another option, purchased the car with a aftermarket exhaust which was sold some time ago and looking for a quick fix... is there something i might be able to insert into the muffler or something along the lines?

you can try creating a small black hole in the tip of your exhaust Im fairly sure I remember reading that nothing escapes a black hole not even sound....

Other than that, no, not on this short notice...

get a steel plate like you have. instead of drilling one 30mm hole drill a few little holes to restrict it heaps. then when ya done take it out :nyaanyaa:

make them about 4mm or 5mm holes and dont do too many, but do enough so it doenst stuff ya enigine

going to get it done now thankyou soo much

A heap of rolled up chicken wire does the job, not just sitting there lol

The steel plate doesnt just sit there. You make it the same size and shape as the flange on the rear of the cat. Drill your holes through it where it bolts together, and drill some holes through it where the exhaust gasses can flow through :D

not having a go at you, just saying thats how its done.

Oh nah sorry mate, I was replying to Security, not contradicting you again :D your idea should be spot on too

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
