Now with the exhaust is different , I didn’t go with Chinese brand like what I’ve got now and FYI I didn’t have that install it was from previous owner , it’s still loud but I don’t like it as it didn’t sit very well.

With genuine Nissan’s exhaust yea it’s good but it’s not loud enough like how I want it.

So I go with HKS , it’s loud enough than the current.


Now questions - do I need to re-tuned the car with the new exhaust ? What about the horse Power , would it impact ?

If it's a cat-back system it won't affect the stock ecu tune. It will have sensors before and after the cat converters so it should just flow more at high revs and sound awesomeness at idle. If the original Nissan system had reactive mufflers at the rear and not straight through you might loose a bit of bottom end torque but gain more power at higher r.p.m. A proven hks product will just bolt on and be mint for what you want (moar top end and moar noisy) unless you've changed the tube size.
Sounds like the bushes are dead! 
I noticed when we went to mighty car mods you had a massive clicking at the front end like cvs on full lock when parking. Won't be anything to do with clunking though.

I would think the upper control arm bushes could be pressed out and replaced from experience. But I've never owned a highly technological beast like your bad boy. On the cars I've owned it would be just do both sides with nolathane's? Red bushes are stiffer and faster.

Josh said the same thing about having the cvs in full lock - and it’s not a safety concerns.

But the sounds bugging me ! Can you help ?

    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
