I've been looking for a suitable exhaust for my skyline, but i cant seem to choose.

People have been telling me to go for a 3" for the sound, but then i lose low end torque.

i dont even know what type of exhaust to look at, most likely looking for the 2.5" size, and only looking for either a catback or cannon, which ever one would sound better.

Would love help on this as i dont know much about cars.

Cheers.

2.5" is more than plenty for a natro skyline.

as for type, an oval muffler will be quieter than a cannon, and also isn't so ricer. my advice would be to go to your local exhaust place and ask them for a quote on making you up a system.

I would not go any bigger than 2.5", if you went 3" you would lose any torque you have any it would be way to loud.

As for the muffler, i like both cannons and oval mufflers and actually have an oval muffler on my car at the moment.

A bit of advice though, don't cheap out on the muffler, when i got mine done, i was on a tight budget so i have some no name brand muffler and it sounds like ass. If you want a nice sound get a good quality stainless steel muffler.

Hey guys, thanks for the into, i was thinking about getting a 2.5" catback with a 3" xforce varex cannon, coz i do want it to be load :geek:

anyways, thatnks for the advice again :D

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
