That's the resonator.

It stops all the in cabin drone that can happen.

Some people run them without them, but I wouldn't recomend it, plus these Jap exhausts tend to be JUST legal, removing (or not using) a resonator could push you over the limit :):D

The item you are pointing at is just a resonator its basically just straight through and is fiberglass packed

the photo is basically a cat back system consisting of two resonators and a rear muffler!!(all straight through being a super dragger system!)

MEGA

P.s a converter usually look like this!

Is that converter section = the resonator section that I don't have?

If I can't get my hands on that missing section, considering you said it's only straight thru with fibreglass packing, will that be easy to fabricate in local workshop and produce the same level of quietness with the original HKS cat back system?

Yes it can be fabricated with ease!! but most exhaust shops have straight through resonators just not HKS brand!!(should be just as quiet!) just make sure you get the ones with the perfirated pipe not fluted (perf looks like someone drilled heaps of holes in it!)and the rest is just a few mandrel bends!(make sure there mandrel bends) and then you should have something just like the HKS brand stuff!!(I know this because I made my own exhaust for my car!!)

P.s the converter i showed you was off a RX7 s6

Thx MegaGTS4

If I don't want to fabricate a hi-flow or 3" pipe where the resonator section is, does anyone know if I can attach my HKS back part muffler to my factory resonator section without any mods/adapters?

you'll probably find your standard exhaust is 2 1/4 inch and the HKS is 3 inch then all you need is a 2 1/4 to 3 inch adapter that can be ordered at any local exhaust shop!(or you could take the car and the muffler to the shop and ask them how much it will cost to get it attached!) the standard system and the 3 inch take the same route!But will not perform as good as a cat back system and might not be as loud!!

MEGA

P.s if you made a flange and welded it to a 3 - 2 1/4 chrome tip you could use this as a reducer to join it to your standard exhaust!(just a thought because you can buy these tips anywhere and just paint it black when your done!)

thank's....

I don't want loud tho... that's a real turn off driving a loud car with all the drones... for me, a car should be quiet, so even hi flow exhaust needs to be quiet to win my favour :-)

I'll see how I go with the muffler, I hope I can get it done before next cruize, and if I don't go to tassie on the 27th

I've given the exhaust a polish... not perfectly clean tho, the other side of the pic still got some dirty area prob from spray over paint (maybe was taken off a white R33 before??)

What u guys think, I hope it wont be loud coz it's really huge...

      I'd be worried about having to parallel park a boat like that. Magnificent car though.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      This car has run before on this z32 ecu can get the part number for you, I have tried with no AFM it didn’t change anything, I compression tested today 140-150 across all 6 cylinders, also set fuel pressure to 43psi. The only weird thing was cylinder 1 plug was black and fouled other 5 cylinders were just wet with fuel. Spun cas by hand and confirmed injectors are clicking

      Since you came here to ask for help, have you thought about answering our questions, that might help us lead you to why it was skipping, or have you given up on getting advice?

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
