Kakimoto Full mega Dual exhaust or Nismo weldina ne-1 titanium exhaust?

I'm trying to decide between these two exhaust. I would like a nice sounding exhaust and always liked nismo's but it honestly not loud enough for me. I was thinking the kakimoto would give me the sound I want but I fear it would be far to small for a RB32 with low mounts.  Any advice would be appreciated. 

Throw that restrictive Jap junk in the dumpster, close the lid and lock it. Make sure you throw the key away.

Do yourself a favour. Go and buy some quality mufflers and get one made.

I have a Jap 3" here with mid muffler and a cannon that isnt overly loud, but also has no step downs in the muffler. Not sure what workshop this mythical creation came from.

Kakimoto Full Mega N1. Had one on my car. Sounded absolutely nuts!

2.8, GT-RS's, E85 and 30 psi netted 414 rwkw with the mega N1.

2.8, -5's, E85 and 24 psi made 424 rwkw with a twin 3 inch.

smaller turbos, less boost, made more power.

Here is a back to back.

So, you can have the mad exhaust in a box that comes with a few stickers so you can add it to your shopping list OR you can put something on that performs. To get more air in you first have to get the exhaust out.

Edit - Just realised that's not the overlay of the 30 PSI run with the RS's, only the 25 psi. Either way, an extra 5 psi made 13 KW. What a nugget :p.

would get a Havoc fabrications "off the shelf" exhaust which is pretty much custom but without the homo step downs... and it's off his jig.

    • 12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).
    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
