Tried the consolidated workshop thread but no exhaust shops listed.

Can anyone recommend an exhaust shop who can work with pipework larger than 3" ?

My GTR has an Apexi system on it and I'd like to get the Canon removed and replaced with a twin tip muffler (and also get the muffler position straightened up)

i got carline mufflers in malaga to do mine originally he did a pretty good job made my 3inch catback sit pretty much as high as the standard one sat so it didnt scrape on speed bumps ect but the welding quality was pretty average. i then got rear ended and Prestige Exhausts & Mufflers in malaga did the insurance job and the weld quality was a shitload better but they mounted it pretty low like most imports have so yeah their care-factor isnt that great IMO

people do quality jobs if u know them, 99% of the time randoms off the street are just walking dollar signs

I got my full custom job done at:

Mettam's Mufflers

21 Rudloc Rd

Morley WA 6062

(08) 9275 7034

My job was 2in though, but they did a real good job and it was mounted higher than the old one was.

Welding culd be a bit cleaner but i'm happy with the job.

+1 for kermit I have a full system fabricated by him, it's excellent quality

Cheers Nick

hey nick how much did it cost you if u dont mind me asking? what did u get 3 inch or? im looking at getting a turbo back for my 34 can get a xforce mild steel 3 inch for 850 plus delivery

I'll have an Apexi system for sale in about a week for $500ono if it fits a 34.

System is great but I'm an old codger who wants a stock looking rear muffler

I supplied the dump pipe, and Kermit fabricated the rest cost me 1250 for a 3 inch system made from stainless steel and had custom hangers made for the x force muffler which Kermit sourced and fitted I also got a decat pipe made for race use only of course :)

Sounds like porn

Cheers Nick

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
