M35 Performance Exhaust

[joshm35]

Im not discrediting their work, i am letting you know from my experience (take it or leave it). Im all for supporting local business but just giving you the heads up these vq low rev engine sounds are bloody loud (especially in the cabin) where you will be on a constant dose of panadol for the headaches.

I have spoken to one of the local m35 owners here in brisbane about his experience and he mentioned he changed to a diesel muffler and had it sticking out a little more from the rear of the car so the exiting noise was past the rear of the car not under it. Happy trails with you're shop just food for thought.

You're comment sounded like me a few years ago. Now i have a exhaust that was made for the nm35s.

[Beregron]

I always appreciate the information and opinions.

I ran an N1 exhaust first on my M35 but went fully custom due to the drone and have had custom for the last year and a half. Compared to what i have heard on youtube clips etc i would hardly call mine droney or loud in comparison but then again my experience with M35's is fairly limited to 3 owners cars.

I may regret not going for a Fujitsubo this time but i'll try and post a clip once mine is sorted for science.

Supporting local works for me. Not gonna do a crap job. Custom mandrel bends and designs based on an old hks super dragger I used to own on my s14. Will most likely end up doing it in sections as funds become available.

Diesel mufflers are pretty much larger cylinders with a perforated hole pipe that's straight through. Some glass packed or not. Most of the mufflers off the shelf have baffles or loops inside (don't get me started on bullets and cobys). Effectively just makes it like the branded ones without the label price. Cut one open

"if made badly or ignorantly"

I am getting a new exhaust made in the next few weeks. I'll try and post up how it sounds when done. I guess i could have just gotten a new dump / flex and joined the Fujitsubo crew but i like tackling things my own way with what i have at my disposal locally. Support the locals folks

If the bloke i am using's other work is an indication of what i'm in store for it should be a nice bit of kit.

You'll have much less of an issue with the drone situation with the manual conversion; which is yet another good thing to add to the enormous list of good things about manual cars...

i like the silencer

[joshm35]

Its good as the internal diameter of the silencer is the same as the exhaust so no restrictions

[Reaperblitz]

The design of the silencer acts like a baffle too...

I would be interested to hear what yours sounds like and see if its as loud as mine in the link above, what intake to you have?

[joshm35]

Stock intake as i sold my AM performance intake to josh (brick)

[Reprieve]

Ah k, I noticed my exhaust was slightly louder with a better flowing intake

[conan7772]

I have Bricks intake now.

Haven't fitted yet, gees imagine would probably be over 120db.

Video coming soon of my Fuji with single cell cat.

My work associate said he could hear me for a good minute before I pulled up to site.

I like the look of that silencer, looks smart.

If the new cat doesn't bring it down enough I might try one of those.

[iamhe77]

When you do the video, can you get a shot of the exhaust under the car (not just the muffler)?

[joshm35]

Ok will do.

[conan7772]

I've done three videos now, on Sony Camera and on my Samgung S4. All with massively distorted audio.

Still trying..

[conan7772]

Putting this on tomorrow, hopefully quiet it down a bit.

100 cell cat.

Here's a couple vids with straight through.

108 db from 2m away..

[iamhe77]

That doesn't sound like any Fujitsubo I have heard under load.

Does it look like it has been tampered with? Resonator still intact? Maybe the rear muffler has been gutted of the baffling by the previous owner?

I was going to say; mine sounds nothing like that.

That has a rasp that is completely absent from mine.

Is there a cat fitted?

With a sound meter phone app (no guarantee of accuracy) mine only registered 90dB at peak (free rev).

But even allowing for error; there's no way known that it would be 107dB, I have mates with bikes around 104dB, and they are orders of magnitude louder than my quiet ol' Fuji.
