Why does it step from 3.5 to 4? Why not go 4 inch from the merge?

What's a bronze finish?

Not too sure why from 3.5 to 4, guess I could ask twin 3 into 4 right through.

I think the cheaper option is unpolished stainless steel, and the bronze is polished polished?

You lol, 10 million different opinions on how to do it

Comes down to how much you wanna spend, setting up a high powered GTR for track duties is an expensive exercise if you want to do it with some sort of reliability.

If I were you,

Keep 2.6, Sort out the exhaust, standard Intercooler, standard cams, fuel pump with wiring upgrade, ID 1000/2000 injectors AND put -9s in it with cams gears dialed for response

That's for street duties and will net you 350ish rwkw.. Sh1t starts to break and get expensive from here on in

For track your gonna want a sump baffle, decent oil pump (oil restrictor depending on pump flow), oil cooler, catch can... If your going that far shit put a stroker in it with a new valve train.. See how it doesn't end?

Haven't even started on brakes and suspension when it comes to track.

BTW -10s are a no no on a 2.6

Got coil overs and running toyo r888 semi slicks 295/30/18 atm. Only got projuct mu pads on stock brembo brakes, would like to upgrade to something like R35 brakes but can't find any for sale atm.

fark..... get another quote from somewhere else... unless you want to show the under your car you can get mild steel with a stainless rear muffler for the $1200 mark. shop around mate

Price was from Liverpool exhaust, would prefer stainless steel as want to keep it for a while and don't want dents or bumps, can any one recommend another exhaust shop?

I don't even think 35 brakes would for under an 18 inch wheel?

Got LMGT4's so should clear R35 brakes. Got quoted Ap racing 6 piston front 4 piston rear kit installed at eye watering $8000! That's why I thought R35 brakes might be cheaper second hand.

Thats good power with little lag, what turbos you got?

with r35 brakes you need and adaptor to fit the front caliper and the drum for the hand brak needs to be made smaller, not hard but something that needs to be factored in when pricing them

I had my exhaust done at windsor, from CES comp series dump pipes I got twin 3" twin 3" cats into single 4" with 4" center muffler through to 4" HKS super Dragger cannon I moded myself, was like $1240 fitted in mild steel

I have -10s and my car is for track and they work well upto 26psi :)

But then I am using a 30 :D

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
