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.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
