hey

i got the xforce turbobak full stainless steel exhaust kit for my r33 ($950 off ebay)

Im very very happy with it. I didnt dyno it after we put it in but you could instatly tell a huge differance in power. It sounds great to, and its not evan that loud. looks pretty cool i guess.

Apparantly xforce just make good copies of the bigname japanese brands.

Id definetly get it again though, specialy for the price :D

I have a mild steel turbo back X-force on my RB20.

Sound: It's actually pretty quiet when cruising on the highway. The drone isn't intrusive - it doesn't leave your ears ringing :(

Performance: I haven't had it tuned yet, but they claim 20kw at the treads average gain. Incomparison a CES exhaust advertise approx 40kw gain (but their systems cost a lot more)

Looks: Doesn't look too bad. IMO it works and performs better than the stock exhaust, and as far as bang for buck goes, it's not too bad.

The quality of the welds on mine were pretty poor. If you wanted to take the time, you could clean them up.

:P

ya the dude on ebay who sells them... not sure whats going on there..

basicaly EVERYONE complained about how slow/barely existent he is in all his sales.

I paid for the exhaust, and I emailed and emailed and he never replied. then after a week i rang him up and he was pretty responsive. Came a week after he said it would.. but hey it came in the end :D

The kit for the r33 etc comes with the front pipe thing that connects to the turbo, cat, another long pipe, muffler, a silencer, and all the bolts and crap. Mine doesnt have that overlapping with the turbo problem.

I dont think theres much of a diff between $1000 full stainless style xforce kit, and a $2000 apexi/HKS one etc...

i got turbo back on my r33, from ruf performance was suppose to be mild steel one but bankstown mufflers said it was full stainless steel so maybe they put on the wrong one?

and it' only cost me $700..

great exhaust not too loud performance up a fair bit but yet to dyno will do once power fc is in..

I've got an Xforce catback and it's too loud. I've been EPAed and it turned out to be 99 db. The power gain was great but your probably better off getting a fujitsubo if your going to spend $1000. By the way it has a N1 drift style muffler which looks pretty damn good.

Except you can get brand new Japanese cat-backs for about the $1000 mark, so the X-forces don't look like such great value to me?

LW.

you can get plently of brand name cat backs for the $1000 mark

I paid $900 for my full stainless Fujitsubo. I was also looking at buying a HKS highpower catback for $860.

well now im looking at getting a stainless twin dumper from batmbl and a catco high flow cat.

would it just be cheaper to go down to my local exhaust shop and get the pipe work from the back of the cat to the muffler made up??

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
