Hey guys,

Haven't really introduced myself but i've been posting/lurking around here for a few months now.

Long story short I had an 06 WRX and went through the various modding stages with medium-loud exhaust and now i'm over that :P. Going to join the VIC club and i'll make an intro post there when I pick up my car and join.

Recently purchased and will be picking up an r34 gtr vspec (as pictured to the left) and will soon be looking to change the exhaust.

I've only seen one person with the HKS Super Turbo exhaust (not going to name him but he's welcome to post up here and say who he is :P).

Been searching around for the exhaust but can't really find anything, got a good review from him and will probably soon go meet up and have a listen/look at it. Really i'm just looking for multiple opinions & experiences; the mid muffler and oval muffler design is something i'm looking for. Clean look, good quality, and good price on RHDJapan for 1.5k inc postage (can't find it anywhere else for sale that i'd trust)

I want something that is fairly quiet with good flow and future proof for when i change turbos and so on (which this exhaust seems to be). I just can't really find any info/experiences of it.

Anyone is welcome to suggest other quiet-ish exhausts they know of of decent quality in the 1-2k bracket (cat back).

Edit: Would really love a Weldina NE-1 but they seem to be a bit too hard to find.

Thanks.

Iv heard it before and it is quiet for an off the shelf exhaust. Flow wise I have no idea and haven't really found much info when researching different system. Iv bit the bullet and ordered a Racepace system, it does cost a little more but it's quiet and proven. In my opinion it's worth the extra money as its a great system and looks almost stock too. Living in Melbourne it's a worthy investment!!

How much did the racepace system cost?

Can't find much on it apart from fully built cars by them, it's custom made right? Pretty sure I read it was some time ago.

Yes it's full custom system all 3.5 inch or 4inch depending what you want with custom mufflers, doesnt shrink down anywhere and its really quiet.

Best to call them and have a chat regarding price etc.

A 3.5 inch I had to look at the tacho to see if it was on. That was on a fellow SAU members R34.

Amazing. I will definitely have to check out these setups at some VIC meets. Do you know how many mufflers/resonators it had?

Hi Guys,

My set up is as follows...

Stock 2.6 bottom end

HKS 2530's

Nismo Dump Pipes

Power House Amuse Ti Down Pipes (3.5" outlet)

High Flow 3.5" in 3" out Metal Cat

WAS: Tomei Expreme Ti Cat Back

NOW: HKS Super Turbo Cat Back

A few notes...

- Both systems have an 80mm entry which then steps up to 85mm within the first inch

- Both systems then run 85mm pipe work the rest of the way

- Both systems run a 2 muffler design, however the Tomei mufflers are MUCH smaller

With the Tomei the car made...

391.9rwkw @ 22psi

349.6rwkw @ 19psi

It is going to be very interesting to see what power it makes with the HKS Super Turbo system on the car.

I am just waiting for Racepace to have some free time for me to head down there and get the car back on the dyno for a few power runs.

As soon as I have done this I will report back.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
