Are they suitable for Sedan? Found a decent price on a pair

I bet those Invidia are 100 cell which are "catalytic converter psychological"

Close, they are 200 cell.

So I went with Invidia catted pipes. The Rasp is awful. The whole car sounds like shit now lol. Im told it'll settle a bit over time, but not much 😬
Maybe something like this resonator will help.

At least it doesn't sound like broken honeycomb anymore I guess.

My 2 cents is to get the longest resonators that fit your system

 

I saw a video of someone replacing the Y pipe with a custom fab X pipe to solve it. Do you think that might be a better option to a pair of resonators? Or maybe even both?

Don't know, my experience with X pipes or Y pipes are only with a V8, X pipe on a dual exhaust, or a Y pipe on a single

The X and H pipe dual sounded like thongs clapping, the Y pipe single sounds meaty, both had drone until I fitted a 2 in 2 out muffler on the dual, and a big resonator on the single

As for the sound difference between a X pipe and a H pipe, I have noticed no real difference 

Sorry I cannot really help in that regard, but resonators will help with drone, hell even a 2 in 2 out muffler would work if the dual pipes line up

I've run resonators on all of my aftermarket exhausts, the main function of a resonator is to reduce drone

My LS1 has 1 7/8 4:1 headers, dual 3" catted Y pipe to 4" single with a 5" bodied resonator before the diff (had to get a custom one made to fit where I wanted it) and a 4" Varex out back, negligible drone when cruising, even with the windows up and the radio off, hell, my Mrs is always falling asleep when we are cruising around, but, it sounds like war when your on the loud pedal

We do alot of cruising around on Hwy's and country roads, noticeable drone wouldn't cut the mustard

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
