Hey Guys,

Whats the best exhaust system to suit the rb26?

Consideration should be made to the following criterea:

- Most power delivery

- Best sounding

- Not trying to be loud! (but probably not having much choice)

- Styling?

What system do you have on your GTR? What is the best system you've heard, and have you/why would you pay the extra for a full stainless system?

I am considering a full 3.5" straight-through system. I'm not sure to go completely stainless or not.. it would have twin dump pipes and a stainless muffler with tip.. ie no rice cannon. (not that theres anything wrong with that)

Just procrastinating before my car with stock exhaust system arrives in a couple of weeks :cheers:

If I had my way, I would run Trust/Greddy split front extension pipes into JIC Magic cat, with Fujitsubo SuperTi exhaust.

LW.

So far I thought mine was std just looking at it, till my mechanic had a look

Its just under 3" std cat and its an aftermarket one of some description.

I have had a TRUST style front pipe fitted at compliance and it sounds ok, but there are 2 mufflers in the middle keeping it quiet.

I'm not sure if I should change the whole thing. I was just going to change to a 3" high flow cat and have 1 of the mufflers removed. what do you guys think??

I've got a custom made job, came with the car from japan and was a pleasant surprise, full stainless system, manifold, dumps, 3" to 3.5" fronts, 4" system, no cat initially but now has a 4" Magic One which caused no real difference to power delivery. Exhaust is fairly quiet for its size, just a nice deep note.

I agree with Iwells in that you should get the Trust/Greddy Split dump/fronts, Magic cat and then some decent cat back system

Burto, that sounds similar in spec to mine, custom s/s 3" dumps into a 4 inch exhaust:

But can't tell how it sounds until we finally start it....tomorrow.

Yep that looks like a similar monstrosity to mine. Its always funny when the workshops put the car up on the hoist and see how big it really is. The measuring rulers come out as well as the "I think the japanese guy you bought this off was trying to compensate for something" comments

I've got the Trust front pipes (see my gallery) page 1 i think, a Catco cat and a Trust Power Evolution II 3.7" cat back (loud)

but not as loud as ylwgtr2's twin system (damn!) search for his thread when he fabricated it

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
