Looking at getting a dual exhaust install in the near future, but the exhaust shop said it not impossible as looking underneath the PNM35

there is room for another muffler, BUT there is this canister on the way. He said it needs to be remove/reposition somehow. Its look like a carbon canister that had some pipes connected to the fuel tank. Has anyone done a dual exhaust here, cant seems to find any threads regarding to the above topic. Please help.

Note the smaller passenger side muffler on that Zees exhaust that Alex linked to. Only thing you have to remove to fit one of them is the rear tow hook.

I have a V36 exhaust coming from Japan (should be here in a couple of weeks) and will be fitting that to my PNM35.

Will let you know how I go and what is needed (I already have a Y50 Fuga rear sway bar to accommodate the twin piping).

Looks pretty cool. Now you just need some kind of lower skirt to finish it off :thumbsup:

Thanks Ryan, I was just thinking about it awhile ago. Maybe a rear diffuser, but not sure what to make/buy etc. I dont want to look tacky tho.

Stock V36 sedan exhaust

Silent when cruising and a rather nice throaty growl when accelerating :)

Interested to hear it when I finally get around to installing the cats and extractors.

Carbon canister located horizontally (have had it mounted this way for a few weeks with no issue)

Thanks to Scott for welding on the extensions and extra exhaust mounts. :cheers:

Oh that look good. Is it safe for that canister to be lying sideways?

Haven't had an issue with the canister or fumes in the 3 weeks I have had it mounted that way.

I read that the only problem is when they are mounted upside down - although I can't imagine a scenario where you'd do that.

That said, I would like to remount it vertically if I can find some space for it (highly doubtful).

    • Why are people so insistent on making dirty water?!
    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
