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...

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
