Hey everyone,

Car is finally up and running well.

So I have decided on finally fixing the broken exhaust.

I have a rather large crack where the exhaust joins to my mid muffler.

Looking to replace the muffler with a aftermarket piece and sorting this issue out.

Any recommendations on a 3 inch mid muffler for my exhaust.

Something that is not so restrictive but nothing over the top loud.

Cheers,

Daniel

just put a second hand zorst on my 32 2L-t

3" to a huge straight through mid muffler, then going to a 31/2" and a small straight through cannon, friggin a lot quieter than I thought, and only $200 from epay

thanks again shifty

Just found them online for $120 delivered

I think it is the one someone else suggested because they have a nice deep tone.

I also just emailed the guy from AES about how much he would charge as well.

I'm also looking at fitting a mid muffler to my exhaust, since fitting the 6 boost with the gtx3076 the exhaust is so much louder than it was with the stock turbo and manifold on there.

Currently I've got a 3" stainless dump off the turbo, 3" cat which I'm unsure of the brand or the quality of it, the mid sections a straight through pipe with the only muffler being a x force varex muffler at the rear but if you drive around in the quite mode it sounds utter shit!

Good thing the short mid section is flanged so it's easy enough to get something made up. I'm prob leaning towards a stainless straight through magnaflow. I've had the aero chambers on my v8's honestly not to sure if I'd like that sort of deepness coming out of a skyline. Hmmm. Any other suggestions on mid mufflers?

Kind of hard to get measurements whiles it's on the car.

But I got under there with the tape measure and got the following measurements.

Length = 29cm (11.6inches)

Width = 24 to 24.5cm ( 9.4 to 9.6inches)

It also seems my current design is.

3 Inch centre inlet

3 inch off centre outlet

All of the designs I could find on the Hooker Aero were either

3 inch off centre inlet with a 3 inch centre outlet.

or

3 inch centre inlet with 3 inch centre outlet.

Not sure what to do in that situation

Any advice would be great.

Otherwise I guess I can just take this to AES and they can hook me up with a custom made one.

Are these mufflers directional?? Can't you just turn the muffler around?

    • 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.
