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

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
