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.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
    • FYI: Racebox RE7R Custom Tunes Released!   https://goracebox.com/.../2017-infiniti-q50-q60-re7r-tcm...   FOR GEN 2 (21+) VEHICLES, PLEASE SEE NOTE AT BOTTOM See more   But whomever tuned your car is the tuner you should go back to, AMS, Sonictune or BT Tune....
