Recently got myself a first car, relax guys, I'm not going to thrash it on public roads. Soon enough I'll be attending a few track days with SAU :)

So first up,

I'd like to change the stock exhaust system (Apparently you MUST change all r33 systems? Not sure why :/ )

My friends uncle will do the entire system from headers to tip for a decent price, what's the best I can do still being legal? I'm under the understanding that 91 or 93dB max at 4.5kRPM.

What about performance wise? If the system is considered "Sports" would that put me at risk?

I'm looking currently to spend not a lot, but get as much gain as possible.

What's some small things I could buy that would get myself a step ahead?

I've been told apexi panel filter, and a few other bits.

Thanks guys ;)

Sounds a bit cheap and nasty to me.

Remember this saying

Speed costs money, How fast do you want to go?

or even this one

Cheap - Fast - Reliable, Pick two

Nothing cheap will get you any meaningful gains and will more than likely cost more in the long run, as you will have to pull off and replace cheap shit parts when they fail or don't do their job correctly.

Something to think about :)

Well, if it were me, I would just try to enjoy it, chuck a decent exhasut on.

Then spend coin on suspension and brakes.

Bugger all gains to be had from the NA RB, so make it steer and stop, because the GTS4 is a heavy bastard so will never be a weapon in a straight line, but has plenty of grip so take advantage of it :)

1400 for exhaust headers to tip bro. Not worth it.

If you want a good sound, avoid a cannon. Get a 2.5" cat back for like $350, it's a bit droney but it's sound. Can get very loud.

You're a sydney resident yeah? If I don't sell my car this weekend I'll take you for a drive soon so you can hear the 2.5" catback.

Trust me mate, enjoy having an awesome car on your Ps, sell it later, get a GTST, GTS4 with turbo or even better, GTR.

Good work on getting that car too. It's a step down from a GTR but I trust you'll enjoy it.

He has quoted me a lot cheaper, not sure I'll have to see what the go is before I step my self into anything.

Bro we used to do something together online, not sure but I've got you on MSN.

A drive? Sounds good :P

The ultimate plan is to do a few things to this car and later on when I'm nearing my fulls get a 32 GTR and go hard out.

Yeah we did :) I've been meaning to start a keyhunt v2 sort of thing but time, effort, money etc. etc. Forum software for that genre has gone down hill and it always did suck at generating content.

Yeah, it's a good plan. I might be selling my gts25 soon so I won't have a liner, but I'll rock my nugget Hyundai to some cruises hahaha xD

Got some friends with friends with friends, so sometimes things come together and events happen. I'll keep you posted :)

Yeah that's right, keyhunt :P

Shh, don't tell anyone, I don't have my p's yet :O 1st of September.

No worries!

it's an exhaust. there is a limit to how much the cheap/fast/reliable theory applies to this. performance wise there will be minimal difference, but cosmetically there may be a bit (how neat the welds are, etc). however there will be a bit of a difference in noise attenuation in mufflers.

basically, just get a decent oval muffler and a centre muffler/resonator and you will still have good flow without the drone or attention from the boys in blue.

yeah but he said a mates uncle was going to do it, implying he has some sort of exhaust workshop, and generally exhaust places use better quality mufflers (note i said generally). in the same way that bike shops generally sell better quality bikes/parts than big w, etc.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
