Hey, nick from some other post you have done i will assume you have an r34 gtt, if that is the case then here are your options. Getting just a dump pipe to bolt on to your front pipe that you already have may be a bit expensive…all the more recent jap brands etc are made from stainless steel or even mild steel (stainless is more common atm) and a normal retail price for them usually start in the $600 mark (yes it a bit much!!) finding an second hand one usually is around the $300 dollar mark or about $250 depends what you can find at what time (stainless or mild steel) a lot of the dumps (second hand) on the market are for r33’s (GTS-T) I’m not sure if there is a difference in the dump area comparing r33’s to r34’s (single turbo) but the front pipe section “is” longer than the r33, you’d have to compare the dump’s side by side too see a difference (if there is any) to make sure it will fit and isn’t a waste of time.

To get one custom made up lets say it will go over the price of a second hand item maybe $100 or so dependant on the exhaust place doing the work, and there is also fitting etc to be considered.

I myself I have just a front pipe installed and tried to find a dump pipe to complete the system but prices I found were as stated $300+ (split pipe design..But still) and since my front pipe cost me $250 Inc fitting it was all going to add up quite quickly $$$. All the places that sell brand name ones will cost an arm and a leg to purchase unless you have money lying around (I don’t atm :P ) eventually I got a Dump/front combo pipe from BATMBL in mild steel for $250 and then all you need to do it get it fitted which I am in progress of doing atm & I intend to sell my front pipe that I have on atm after this dump/front combo is fitted.

IMO I reckon it’s the way to go if you don’t have too much money to spend (as I have) a lot of people have purchased pipes from him before and not had any problems only positive gains. My 2 cents.

Thanks for your all your help especially REdline. Yeah I have spoken to BATMBL before i put up this thread. Just was hoping one of u guys would know of a cheap place. Anyways I haven't exhausted all my options and probably will be checking around a few places b4 i make up my mind on what to do.

Skyline33 : i'll ask around whether yours 33 pipe would fit on my car. but judging by wat redlinegtr said looks like it wouldnt. But i will still double check to be sure.

Cheers guys.

No problem at all :D

The R33 dump might fit I’m not sure about that, but I know the front pipe (r34) is longer because the cat is further down, at one time I had a r34 & a r33 one in my hand but never thought about doing a detailed check :( some exhaust places I went too were only keen to make custom ones and some places would only sell you a complete exhaust system and won't sell separate parts. Anyways hope you find all the info so you can get what you need. Cheers Rob

    • The powder coating came in at $250 EACH. The TRX rims got a coat of clearcoat on the outside only.    
    • Bit wet, but YUMMY
    • Keeping in mind that I am currently getting flat 10 L/100km on my RB25DET, which means >>500km/tank. I would test this car for vacuum leaks, check codes and AFM signal with NissDataScan as D says, check plugs, do a compression check while they are out.
    • It is hard to be specific half way across the world...but it *seems* like it might have a minor issue. Is the idle stable and does it rev smoothly? I would not expect any pops out of what I am assuming is a standard ECU, standard tune, standard exhaust. You can use Nissan Data Scan to find out exactly what is happening when it runs, the cable/software is reasonably affordable if you are not planning on changing the ECU (which hopefully you are not with an NA skyline) BTW your mileage may not be that far off, these are heavy old tech cars, and being NA might mean you use a heavy foot to keep up with traffic....
    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
