Hey, I've got a r33 na with an x-force cannon (4 1/2 inch) and want to get it quieter with less vibration that hurts your head after a while. I've installed the silencer and that's done alot but want to hear any ideas of fiberglass, cotton etc inside the cannon to get some quietness. Thanks

get a flange the size of your exhaust pipe, weld in a plate to take up half the space inside the circle, bolt it in between your rear muffler and exhaust - got me out of shit =] oh and if you loose power just grind some of the welded plate off till you find a happy medium..

Fit a Varex muffler? Don't bother with the flange plate, it won't help that much. Or fit a s/h stock turbo system?

Where are you located? I heard there is a big blitz on (Melbourne and Sydney) for noise at the moment.

If it is too loud outside the car, get a muffler put in it.

If it's too loud inside the car, get some thick carpet and line your boot with it.

Certainly takes the edge off.

4 1/2inch cannon on a na??? shit.. that must be absolute hell, your problem is the ID size and the type of muffler.

I have a fujitsubo muffler with a 2 1/2inch silencer, that muffler must be as quiet as stock and still looks sounds great...

if you were in brissy id sell it to you.. :yes:

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
