R34 Exhaust

[kazza92]

the question is, i am looking at getting a new exhaust system for my r34 just wondering if there is any suggestions about what is best

[GTR-N1]

I'm not sure if you've done a search yet but...

for your car, if you can lay your hands on...

* Fujitsubo

* Nismo

* Kakimoto

* HKS

* Trust

exhausts for the right price, grab it.

For a NA car, you might need to be careful that it isn't too loud.

Where?

* F/S section right here on SAU

* Just Jap

* Powerplayimports

* Toy Shop

* Nisswreck

i just got mine redone after heaps of defect trouble..ive got a full turbo back system, and it was running a good jap brand cannon, cant remember what brand now.. but i decided to put a varex muffler on it so i could shut it up...when open it runs as well if not better than the previous one and it sounds better, alot deeper note, not so tinny sounding..plus i love the fact that u can make it really quiet if ur out and about with cops around, or for the sakes of your neighbours

i got mine modified a bit so it doesnt look like a varex anymore coz apparently they are frowned upon lol...maybe not the system for everyone, but definately worth a look

thanks for the reply yer i have seen a few videos and read a bit about those exhaust i might have to have a chat to the local exhaust mob in town and see what they think they did the exhaust work on my dads supercharged gt and it sounds amazing i just want something for my r34 that will give it a bit better sound without being too lound and tinny

how about a custom set made?

2.5" Mild steel mandrel bent system

got mine second hand and it sounds great

[R34 -_-]

I would recommend a custom job including Coby extractors, Coby resonators x2 and whatever good quality tip you can afford.

I have 2. 1/4 inch mild steel piping coming off Coby extractors and through a long hot dog Coby resonator and a RPS 3inch cannon with internal baffle. (i think its 3inch might be slightly larger).

I have had this on my N/A Neo for about 3 years now and I finally heard it for the first time with someone else driving my car and i have to say, it sounded AMAZING its a lot nicer than what i thought it would be outside the car and you can really appreciate the genuine skyline exhaust note. It was about 91.3 DB.

I recently failed a warrant of fitness due to the exhaust (new laws meaning its up to the individual doing the test to pass it or not regardless of the db reading) so i installed another small Coby resonator and dropped it down to 87.1 DB which is probably a good level to have it at, so i would recommend two resonators in your exhaust system and you shouldn't have any problems with cops or anything and it will sound nice, not tin arse.

Just make sure the cannon you put on isn't too big!

p.s it cost me about $1100 NZ for my set up, i wouldn't waste my money on fancy jap cannons if i was you, any half descent brand will sound just as good, some people say RPS is shit but i would tell them to get farked and have a listen to my car because that would shut them up.

And if you wanted the full effect get a professional to mount up a pod filter or get a high flow panel filter installed as you get a nice semi loud sucking sound from the intake, kinda like a turbo car but not as loud and obviously not caused from a turbo lol

r34 thanks for the reply

i spoke to my local exhaust shop and they suggested 2 1/2 system with highflow cats and just a sports exhaust not a cannon they said they are removing more cannons then they are fitting them because police are just targeting people with cannon so i am told. I like the look of the cannons but if it is just going to get me a fine i am not to excited about that and that is a bummer because i was looking at getting one fitted

[R34 -_-]

I have never been pulled over by the cops due to my exhaust, and when i was pulled over (only three times to date, twice for accelerating too fast, once for speeding) they never looked at the cannon or anything.

Don't get a big fat rice cannon and you should be fine. The bigger it is the louder it will be and the more attention it will attract.

ritio so i have been looking arround and found the Blitz NUR-Spec R Exhaust System on just jap website for the r34 for arround the same price it was going to cost me for a "sports exhaust" just wondering if any one has had this system fitted and or feedback about what it is like

That would be for a turbo car, if you are thinking it will make your car faster or sound like a turbo car you are wrong lol. 3inch is too big for an N/A car, stick with custom or buy a proper N/A exhaust off the shelf as it is suited to your car and not something else.

sounding like a turbo car is not what i am after a power gain would be nice i found that system on just jap website and just wanted some advice on the system itself is there many systems out to suite a n/a car still sound nice

Yes, any custom setup like i mentioned before sounds great. The skylines that sound like crap are usually the ones that run a pipe thats waaaay oversized or have a big ass cannon on the back of it. Also if you do a half ass job and only replace the tip with a cannon (leaving the stock piping how it is) it will also sound like crap.

A few jap brands stock bolt on exhaust kits for N/A skylines but they can be pretty expensive, if you can't afford to do the exhaust properly wait until you can, otherwise you might end up spending more in the long run to get it sounding nice.

[kazza92]

so do you think that system would sound rubish for a n/a r34

I've heard of other people putting this system on there car, but I personally haven't heard this one running.

But going of the fact that its for a turbo car, the piping will be a lot bigger than that on an N/A.

So, if you don't want more noise than speed and don't want police attention then yes this system will be rubbish.

You can always go on youtube and listen to all the different exhausts, even tho the sound quality on camera's are crap.
