Hi guys, currently I have an exhaust on my r33 gts-t that came from japan and it's really loud (102db).

I was looking at getting a quieter exhaust put on to reduce drone on highways and such because I use this car as my daily.

I heard the trust pe2 system was good but apparently it has been superseded by a later model.

Some info on this new model that replaced the trust pe2 or any info on other good quiet exhausts would be appreciated.

I Heard hks silent hi power is good too but I don't know if it is as quiet as the trust pe2 or the model that replaced it.

Thanks for the help.

My exhaust is legal Db and next to some cars its hard to hear it idling... Its an Apexi with ironically "Super Megaphone" on the tip...

Any exhaust place should be able to quieten it down for you by adding a decent muffler?

You could get the Nismo exhaust for the R33. 3", two mufflers, quiet as f**k, no idea how it flows though.

Ive got a HKS Hi Power Silent exhaust. Its pretty good when driving on light load, comes up nicely on boost and high up in the revs. Cost a fair penny to buy brand new though.

Pretty sure you can get 3.5" or 3" mufflers from anywhere and get any exhaust to chop up your current exhaust and weld in the muffler. You could then get a resonator or hot dog to lower the drone of your exhaust.

What exhaust exactly do you have? Is it stainless or mild steel? There really is no reason why it can't be shut up a little.

I have straight pipe 3 inch with a hotdog in the middle and a varex. 99db open 77 shut... and my engineer signed off on it. Just dont hit any boost when shut or bye bye to every seal in the turbo and probably engine!

Im really happy with it, not drony at all and so quiet when shut on road all i can hear is my injectors clapping away..

and open for full noise applications :-)

kakimoto r is probably one of the best high flowing quiet after market exhausts you can get for a r33.

every japanese after market exhaust will most likely be over the legal limit but getting close to it is what the kakimoto r does. i've had 2 series 2 r33's and i had these on both and on idle they almost sound stock and on boost there is more of a deep growl but its just right.

this is on a hcr32

Thanks for the advice guys. The guy said that because of the way my exhaust has been made, they can't just put in a muffler. So I actually have to go for one of the exhausts mentioned in this topic. Has anyone used the trust power extreme GS? Its supposed to be the one that superseded the trust power extreme 2 and I heard the power extreme 2 was fairly quiet. The hks silent seems to be mixed with some people saying its quiet and some saying they get high dB readings. I'll have a look at some of the exhausts mentioned in this topic.

I have an HKS Hi Power Silent too.

Instead of chopping it up i just made a replaceable center section with a muffler. Goes between the decat and the tailpipe section.

So when im on the street i use the quiet section, and when i want some roar i change it out for the HKS piece.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
