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?

      Blue Smoke from exhaust, RB25DE+T

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Stock R33 boost control, with the exhaust, and FMIC done, will boost creep. There is no tuning around it if it is the factory boost solenoid.   If it has an aftermarket electronic boost controller, the settings/mapping can be altered in it.   Oil could be anything as mentioned, however did it ever do it before you did the turbo swap? How much and how often did you drive the car before the swap?   I'm hinging on too much oil supply, or it's not draining properly.   To check, pull the air outlet off the turbo. Is it full of oil? Drop the exhaust at the turbo, does it appears to be oiled/coked? Now pull turbo and check the exhaust manifold, does it appears oiled and coked the same way?   Secondly, the PCV could even be stuffed / not functioning properly and will cause blowing of blue smoke.

      Like loud exhausts? You could be a psychopath.

      No "could" about it.

      rb20de neo +t conversion - boost pressure sensor needed?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Almost any ECU would work, from a 30 yr old PowerFC to a new Motec/Autronic. But presumably you want new middle of the road ECU, meaning that you want a Haltech or a Link, most likely. As to which model though? I dunno. I don't keep track of what they have in their current ranges. You don't want a plug in though, because plug ins can start to cause you the same wiring issues that you have to chase up with your stock ECU/loom swaps when an engine transplant is involved. If you use a Haltech (and presumably a Link) you could put the base map for the engine in and drive it around and not even need to "tune" it. It will work just fine. I can't recommend a tuner without a location (and even then I can't recommend many, being as I never use any tuners except myself and my brother-in-law). And not many tuners are happy to remote tune. Maybe they'd be happier doing it for a basically stock setup that just needs to be demonstrated to be working properly. But even then, not being able to be with the car to see what the hell is going on and sort out the inevitable problems that will result from an engine conversion done by an amateur..... unlikely to be enthusiastic about the job. And if you think that just adding 2 wires for the boost sensor is difficult - you don't want to be trying to install and set up an aftermarket ECU. You're going to have to bite down hard on something with either approach.

      Wiring loom difference between A31 A/T RB20DET and R32 M/T RB20DET?

      wired everything up and confirmed that the red with white stripe is indeed the fuel pump pin on this harness.
