MMmm ok, I bought this car with a 3 inch straight through already on it.

It has the large twin tip Jasma muffler.

As much as I'd hate to say it , it's just too loud.

Giving me a headache with every day driving.

I reversed up a steep driveway early last Saturday and woke up the whole street.

The deep growl at low rpm is awesome, but mid range ..... :yucky:

There's a crackle that just echoes off everything I pass.

So can anyone suggest a muffler that will have minimum loss of power, no drone and still a nice sound.

Forget Varex Xforce, aint gonna waste $500 on a muffler..., plus extra $$ on install

cheers

Fujibitsu legalis R is by far the best system. Straight bolt up proven to flow over 300kw atw and a nice sound with absolutely no drone and is legal volume. If you get one and need it fitted bring it over and I'll bolt it up.

^What he said

I swapped my stock variable system for a Fujitsubo and made a huge difference and highly recommend it.

If you are interested in my old system I'm happy to sell it. It's a factory variable system

Mine looks the same as Luis.

What's the deal with the second mid muffler ???

Does is act as a resonator or something ?

I'll put it up on ramps and take some pics tomorrow..

Thanks Josh for the offer mate

I'm assuming twin tip is louder than single.

Twin tip is designed to flow faster ??? Less time for sound to be absorbed..

I think my muffler is slightly larger than Luis and completely hollow.

I put a stick in there and couldn't feel a thing.

I'll take some measurements tomorrow and db test it.

Mate the varex systems are way too loud when open and so restrictive when closed. These engines have such loud low rev engine sound and its hard to make an exhaust that is not loud.

Ive had aa apex-n1, straight through with varex, fujitsubo legalis r and now a kakimoto hypermega and have to say that the fujitubusu legalis is the quietest followed closely by the kakimoto hypermega n1. If you can get your hands on either of these systems you will be more than happy.

Loudest system ive had is the apex-i N1. This thing can be heard from like 4 streets away.... stupid loud

This is my old system next to my new one

This is actually a stock V35 coupe mid section joined to the stock M35 rear muffler... The stock V35 sedan/M35 Stagea is about 10 times bigger...

It is a cheap change quick change over that is a tonne lighter and does make it sound a little bit nicer than stock... And yes, I did this mod... :-)

I wondered why the mid pipe always looked different to other stock M35's exhausts I have seen. How was the droan compared with the V35 mid section after you swapped it

There was none...

Was able to use bluetooth device clipped to sunvisor without any problems before and after changing the mid section. I ran it with the coupe mid section for a couple of years and around 25,000km. Sold the car with it, and pretty certain that the guy who bought it also left it on there.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
