I came across this exhaust:

http://www.ebay.co.u...=item3f1a3811f7

Would anyone know what noise level to expect from this one?

I don't want any droning or being unable to listen to music in the car. (that is with no amps installed)

Does anyone know how noisy this one is?

As an alternative I came across this one:

http://www.ebay.co.u...=item4845466ac7

But the diameter of the piping (rear end) looks kinda small to me.

Basically I am looking for a system which is good for 260-300RKW ..

Thanks :)

And I meant NOISY, not NOSIY ... :) :)

anything with an oval mid muffler should be reasonable, anything with 3" all the way though will be fine for that power level, going bigger will make it louder.

if its got a hotdog and a cannon expect it to be loud and drone like a bitch at motorway speeds.

if like the ones you have linked it has an oval middle muffler and a cannon rear expect it to be reasonable and unlikely to have horrid drone while cruising

if its got two oval mufflers expect it to be fairly unobtrusive.

Thanks ..

Seems like this is the one to go then.

Actually I was quite happy with the standard exhaust.

Having the cat removed it actually sounds a bit hearty and it is not loud.

However I now have a hybrid turbo and it seems the standard exhaust is

restricting the engine too much when upping the boost further.

Btw.

Is the Super Drager 3 inch all the way??

Mine is actually more like 3.5. Slight reduction at each flange

I to have this on my 32, it has a great note and not loud at all, mine is 80mm at the cat flange then steps to 85mm straight away, goes through the muffler to the next flange then steps to 90mm and the out through the cannon to a 5" tip, this car made 293rwkw with stock ceramic turbos, I looked for this system to suit the 34 cause I like the one on the 32 so much but couldn't find one so am going a custom copy of it

Great then, the exhaust 'sounds' better with each reply.

Now all I have to do is actually buy/win it.

I have a Trust downpipe which is 3'' or 3.5'' (?) and a HKS decat pipe which is the same diameter as the Trust.

Should be a nice fit ..

Would anybody here know what type of gasket I need for the connection of rear muffler to the rest of the system?

The gasket seems to have 4 holes for the bolts, but what would be the diameter?

I searched E-Bay, but no luck so far.

What turbo you are running will make a massive difference to volume.

For example I am running a stock rear housing highflow 3" all the way with a single rusted out large oval bodied muffler and it is loud but not super loud. My mate however runs a Gt3076r 0.82 with a 3" and a much better rear muffler and a resonator and it is MUCH louder.So just keep this in mind when comparing exhausts.

Imo if stock turbo a single large bodied oval muffler will do the job, if you are going a gt30 sized rear housing then two large bodied oval mufflers are a must.

Hi there,

I am running a HighFlowed OP6 turbine so nothing too exotic.

When I bough the car it had a HKS system with no middle silencer.

It was a nice sound (for race use), but too noisy for daily use.

.

I did not like the noise and installed the genuine exhaust system back on.

(actually the R34 exhaust, which is slightly bigger)

I have the Super Drager here now and I found it quite heavy (I though it was lighter).

The inner pipe diameter is 76mm (at the CAT) and about 84mm at the rest of the system.

Once I have the missing gaskets and exhaust rubber mounts I will install it.

(Not doing Exhaust--Goo) :)

The idiotic seller tied the 2 exhaust pieces together with a cable tie, and wrapped 2 layers of refuse bags around it.

That was what he called 'shrink wrap' / good packaging,

:woot::angry:

So it was metal on metal for the transport via UPS.

Fortunately the rear muffler took no damage, but I spent some hours restoring the exhaust's condition.

Here's the exhaust on an RB25 and the sound seems good:

There is gasket sheets you can buy from repco Think its acl from memory just mark out flange on the sheet hole punch the bolt holes out & centre cut the shape with tin snips *Make sure there Sharp*

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
