Was scouring youtube videos for exhaust sounds (was planning on getting a kakimoto + mines downpipe for an r32) and came across this clip. Has anyone ever heard and exhaust that sounds as amazing and similar to this? And how far over the legal db limit do you reckon it would be :P

Stroker (2.8), E85, GT RS's, split dumps, HKS front pipe and Kakimoto Full Mega N1. It was the most intense, obnoxious sound. It was literally louder than venting to atmo gates... That's the good part of you like that sort thing.

That cat back on a stockish car sounded no where near as barky and loud.

It also was awful for any type of performance. Funnily enough, the last 5 items on that list have been pulled off the car.

Kakimoto sound great but hold the car back.

* ignore second gear. It was having ignition issues in anything but first gear.

Have heard similar with a racepace front pipes and custom 3".

Careful with the kakimoto... Piggaz has some nice pictures of them that would make you want to steer clear...

I'll have a look into that, from google search I couldnt find anything bad relating to the kaki. Racepace exhausts can get a bit pricey though cant they?

They can be but in the single pipe versions (3.5 or 4 inch) they're quiet and flow.

I just happen to have the only twin 3 inch Racepace exhaust made for sale. Front pipe to exhaust tip. Pm if interested.

(Only selling because I'm ditching the twins and going single turbo, otherwise it wouldn't be going anywhere).

Ahh such a pity, I love the look of twins coming out the back too :(. If I had a gtr in the driveway I would probably take you up on that, gotta find one in Japan first though. Got any clips of how it sounds?

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
