hi guys im after a muffler that i can put on my car, but im particularly interested in HKS, Apexi, Kakimoto and GReddy mufflers but theres no where i can find them in Australia. I called Performance Wholesale and they said they dont have any because appearently HKS USA is going into liquidation. I've checked nengun and ebay but the shipping costs are way too much for me. There are so many US websites that sell them but none of them ship to Australia :down: If anyone knows where i can get one from it'll be much appreciated, thanks!

because a skyline and those brands go together nicely :thumbsup:

Then why not buy a brand name catback instead of just a muffler? I highly doubt you will be able to save money having a workshop make the pipes for you..

Unless you plan to make one yourself.. In which case I still say get over it and buy a second hand one to save the cash lol.. I know every jap catback I've owned was uber nice.

And they also have a nice inflated price tag :)

Given the price of 2nd hand exhausts in the FS section - you'll never be able to beat it.

You can get a full cat-back for a GTS-T for the price of just a muffler almost these days :thumbsup:

I mean buying new/shiny is nice, but it's and exhaust and wont stay that way for long anyhowif you intend on driving it.

brands dont mean a huuuge deal, its the design of the muffler.

i could sell you a performance muffler that will last just as long as one of those branded ones, and make just as much power and sound just a good.

You can get unbranded stuff that is just as good and will last just as long. Just find a reputable exhaust shop that will do it for you.

Thats right!, i work in a mechanical workshop specialising in exhausts, so if anyones after anything in the newcastle area, i can help you out!

I think you'd struggle to build a 3 or 3.5" stainless steel catback exhaust system with mufflers included for less than what you can buy a Japanese branded system for wouldnt you?

My HKS Hi Power Silent only cost me $900 from Nengun shipped to NZ brand new. I think thats pretty darn reasonable.

EDIT, i just checked my order, and it was actually $835 Shipped. And your Aussie dollar is f**king ridiculous at the moment! Spend spend spend!

      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

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      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?
