I've finally decided to start with the cat back on my 33 GT-R - later on I'll finish it off with the Blitz front pipes and the Catco 3" cat.

I'm after something that will sound decent but not too loud. I do trackdays so definitely don't want something that will get me chucked out for being too loud.

What do people suggest between these two choices.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Neither. Get a custom job done. Won't be much more and the results will be alot better.

Can you please elaborate why would the results be better.

Few local guys i spoke to just offer x-force 3.5" setup - please recommend and exhaust place for a custom job

What's the budget?

Most jap systems have the '90 mm piping'... But have their crap 2.5 inch 'muffler' down the back!

I'd never buy a jap system again!

None of the jap systems will be over track noise limits. You'll be fine.

Racespace or Rob Sabbadin will be able to do a custom system for similar price i would image. Call em.

Imo there is little difference between the two u have mentioned. HKS has a nice note on GTST.

Disagree man.

The kakimoto on my car sounded like it had venting to atmo gates on it and in the end held the car back! FKN GARBAGE!

Custom job will cost about $400 more, easily.

You can't go wrong with either of the exhausts you've chosen, it's which one you like the look of more. I'd go the Blitz RX

Either of those choices are a waste of time without the rest of the system. Do dumps, front pipes, cat THEN cat back at the same time.

FYI I have dumps to tip all for sale soon. Has flown over 400rwkw.

Also swap turbos, ecu, injectors, fuel pump, build engine, add twin plate clutch-those are all things btw that have been covered on sau time and time again.

Depends if the person is a "shop by quality/result" or "shop by price".

hmm - din't know that - when I saw 95mm piping on the HKS I simply assumed its all the way through.

Cool - calling dibs on that system - since that's the end game for me anyway.

Could you pm me some details.

The HKS for R33 is 95mm, but it tapers.

It starts at 3inch from the cat, hits the little hotdog muffler and goes up to 3.5 inch, then after the flange for the cannon it steps up again to 3.75inch.

Its the second exhaust i have owned thats done this. My old Mugen Twinloop exhaust on my ITR did the same thing.

I have the HKS on mine still with a GT30. For the street is a little loud, so have built a replacement middle section with another muffler for the road.

Heres the HKS Vs Apexi. Sorry the pic is a bit small, but you can kinda see the tapers, and that it is substantially larger than the apexi.

Another classic example of the Jap systems doing this 'taper up and down' rubbish.

My kakimoto - Full Mega N1 started off at 80 mm after the cat, into a muffler then up to 90mm then into the rear muffler which had an internal diameter of 63.5mm (or 2.5 inch). Absolute crap. Live and learn!

mine doesnt taper down. just up. and it hurts the power zero.

Have you looked inside to confirm?

They often have internal baffles, most of the Jap ones I've seen come through have them. Both my jap ones over the years have.

"3.5" exhaust, but with internal baffles around the 3"-2.75"

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      By PranK · Posted

      Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.

      Help please! Hole ontop of box?

      I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box

      So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.

      Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo
