rob> that's what i was told when i bought the car, but it's actually an N1.... then again it may be a hyper.... haha... just messing with ya.

hhhhmmm... :bs!: lolz if u want i have the rest of the day off tomorrow after 4pm i wouldnt mind checking it out to see what it really is :) if you dont live too far away from me :D PM me if anything ;)

Ive got the HKS Hyper on my car, it is a little louder then the HKS Drager i previously had, but my car sounds completely different now i have a non-std turbo, so make sure the one you hear uses the same turbo as the pitch of the turbine wheel plays a part in the exhaust note.

Sid, I thought you wanted to check the sound of mine at the Daylesford cruise... Hiper exhausts are really loud and droney, like an N1 whereas the Super Drager is a lot quieter for normal cruising. When you open up the throttle though, it's still a loud (but awesome sounding) exhaust.

I noticed a massive difference in sound when I replaced my stock turbos with 2530s and when the super-high-flow cat was fitted (for a track day of course).

Don't bother listening to one on an RB25 as they sound very different to an RB26 from what I can tell. I guess it's due to sound being muffled by 2 exhaust wheels rather than 1.

If you can't get one in Melbourne, get one from interstate. I bought mine through these forums and had it shipped from Sydney for minimal cost. My wheels were also procured like that.

Nick> I did hear the sound of yours.... now i want to hear and see the hyper as i have been offered one interstate, but it looks a bit dodge so i want to see what they are really like.

It's actually harder finding parts i want for the rb26 than i thought it would be.

  • 2 weeks later...

So with ppl using the HKS Hyper exhaust on there rides, are any making serious mumbo like 250+rwkws?

Steve from SA posted up a while ago about his Nismo exhaust hurting bost response, any expereinces with the Hyper doing the same, as im running both mufflers and a 3" cat...would be nice to know that the crappy boost response im experiencing has somehting to do with the 2 x mufflers and cat. (JASMA so legal road exhaust in Japan, not like some of the N1 systems gettign around.

Anyone know a good place around Fitzroy, Coburg, Hawthorn etc where i will be able to get a 3" pipe made up for connecting the front pipe to the rear muffler, essentially removing the cat and middle muffler for those occassions where every last hp helps, nothing fancy mild steel tube will be fine.

Curse that R33 owner that let me drive their car on the weekend... my car is a laggy wh0re :)

Speaking of exausts not Many people have Blitz exausts. I got one on my car and it sounds mad with the turbo. Someone told me they are quite rare to see on skylines. The turbo gives it a nice sound as it spools up :)

i had a blitz nur on mine but sold it cause it was way too loud!! i got a headache after 5 mins of driving. even with the silencer in was 100dB

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
