Hi Guys,

I have ordered in a HKS Super Turbo Muffler for my R34 GTR as the current exhaust, a Tomei Expreme Ti is just to loud for me as a daily driver.

It came in from RHD Japan today, I will install it tomorrow.

It is going to be really interesting to see how much quieter it is, actually the sound will be very different I guess, going from Ti to stainless.

Anyway, here are some photos.

I will add more once installed.

The Tomei Extreme Ti looks p0rn !!! Might have to take it off your hands if you want to get rid of it for the right price :)

Well I will be happy to sell it :)

Only thing will be I have no idea who to get a shipping quote from??

But just to let you know I have one other guy from Sydney PM me last week, so he gets first dibs. I will try and get shipping quotes and let you know.

The sale thread is here:

Good post.

My Super Turbo Muffler will go on my car tomorrow.

I ordered that ahead of the Tomei Ti for the exact reason you discovered, that the Tomei is just too noisy for what I want in a daily driver car.

Going from a more restrictive Fujitsubo Legalis R (76mm) to the 85mm HKS should hopefully gain some HP for me in any case. :-)

Good luck with your fitting!

Hi Guys,

So I fitted the new exhaust and WOW, it is SO quiet now. I can't believe how much difference it has made.

Power wise I 'think' it is OK, based on the seat of my pants there is no difference, but only time will tell - I will get it back to Racepace at some point to run it up on the dyno and just see how it goes, but I really think it is no different to the Tomei.

This makes sense to as the pipe diameter on them both are the same, no difference.

I also prefer the look of a straight exit instead of angle exit.

As per normal HKS style the quality is fantastic.

Nice pics.

It's an awesome bit of kit isn't it? Very quiet (as quiet as my previous restrictive Legalis R) when idling or cruising, but makes a great sound when you give it some revs. Love it! :thumbsup:

Yes,

I am very surprised at how quiet it is!! Normal driving, especially freeway driving at 100 is really close to a standard exhaust.

And then when you open it up and give it some it really starts to roar.

Can't wait to get it on the dyno and see the impact, if any,

I'm pretty much sold on getting the Super Turbo after hearing it in real life and seeing it isn't that restrictive. Were you able to get a power figure difference between the Tomei and HKS?

The Tomei Ti is way to loud for the street and hurts your ears after a drive to and from work everyday.

The drone on the freeway sucked.

The HKS Super Turbo is awesome!!

I lost NO power at all and was making a comfortable 360rwkw at 19psi.

Ah Thanks for the advice... now the decision is down to HKS Super turbo or Mines Silence-VX Pro Titan III

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.

      I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
