Hey,

Im about to look into buying a dump and front pipe from my skyline (r33) along with a hiflow cat (or no cat :)). At the moment my exhuast is catback HKS Super Dragger and i was wondering if there is any different between me install brand names parts (HKS) or custum made parts.

I know brand name is alot pricer but is it worth it?

Also i was told that APexi N1 Exhuast is the best is it worth selling my HKS system and upgrade to a full turbo back N1 system

Thanks Mike

just get a custom single piece dump and front pipe, goto quickfit exhaust in morley, theyve done a lot of perth sau members cars and heard nothing but good feedback.

i can't see how the apexi n1 is better, it's different.. it is louder than your super drager would be. your super drager catback is 95mm (3.74in) and apexi n1 is only 80mm (3in), unless u want it louder then just leave the catback.

Hey mike,

I just got my R33 and I have ordered afull turbo back system in mild steel with a stainless dump pipe and high flow cat and a LP02 muffler from x-force and they shipped to my muffler guy for $1000.00 I have since been told that the X-force stuff is of high quality.

A staainless dump pipe alone can be $250 - $500.

I will get it on on wednesday (12/05/04) and I will let you know how it goes.

Cheers,

J-Flash

APC in Brisbane have an awesome dump/turbo pipe - I would nave installed this had I known about it. I got ripped by Subzero who put a ss dump pipe ($270) and once fitted said I needed a front pipe (they originally said I had a custom 3" front but when I measured it I found it was only 2"), quoted $170 and then hit me up for $310 (after it was fitted) because they miss quoted - bad business manners! Talk to Nick at APC he knows his stuff www.apc_racing.com.au

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
