hey guys :)

i got an r34 gtr

i just bought a trial titan tryforce 3' catback titanium.

i have a venom 4'' cat and trust front pipes

since fitting it last night, sounds amazing!!!

BUT!!!!!

has an awesome drone from 2700-3100rpm.

has anybody got a titaium exhaust and had the same issue?

its just got a resonator and a cannon muffler, ive heard the idea of stuffing your spare wheel cavity with sound deadening or blankets and stuff like that to stop the drone coming into the cabin, but didnt really work LOL!!

once again it sounds great but annoys me that inbetween those rpm's especially on the freeway when your cruising at 110 and it sits on 3000. :verymad:

anybody got any suggestions :no:

Step 1: sell the titanium exhaust and pocket HEAPS

Step 2: buy a quieter exhaust and have HEAPS of change

Please don't wreck the Ti exhaust by adding some botch job muffler onto it.. Not sure if you realised but DVS JEZ was joking. Stick welding and oxy cutting are probably the messiest way to do anything, and you probably couldn't even do it with titanium.

A decent muffler will weigh more than the entire exhaust TBH.

And of course it'll make it quiet.

If you still want "loud"-ish and less drone you need to sell the Ti system, you'll never achieve both as they always have wafer thin mufflers.

Do what GTScotT said? I had to get rid of my Ti system, couldnt afford a Mine's VX Silence Ti (for the weight) so I got a stainless system, lost 80hp because I went smaller diameter.

But, for the money I sold the Ti system for, I bought the Stainless Fujitsubo, got the Ti removed, new exhaust fitted, dyno tune and pocketted a $150.

Very interested in power/exhaust size ratio. What were you making before you lost 80hp??

How on earth would that help?

noise not only exits the end of the exhaust pipe but also resonates thru the pipe itself, exhaust wrap would act as a silencer as well as keeping up exhaust gas velocity

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
