I think a nice tip looks good, especially when you can see that huge 3 iinch exhaust going under the rear axle. I have a Nismo 3 inch cat back with 4 inch tip which sounds good - maybe on the quiet side tho.

I think the quiet exhaust saved me a good ticket on one occasion as well as having tyres that dont squeal!

Three lane 70 km zone. me in left lane, van in middle lane and cop in righthand lane (I didnt know he was there). I decided to do a good launch and took off like a rocket. Next thing I look in the rear view to see a copper following nice and close as I turned off onto a 60km road. Needless to say they pulled me over -flashing lights and sirens in front of about 50 cars, asked me how fast I was going, admitted to the speed - didnt want to get caught lying. Quote from copper in falcon " you left us for dead at the lights mate"...lol... when was the last time a falcon kept up with a skyline which has done a 5K launch - especially when you didnt even know the car was revving for a launch!,

why were you speeding? 'sorry, just accelerated a little too hard', ' wont happen again sir' and got let off with a warning...

so quiet exhausts are not so bad...

I agree... Cannon mufflers are over-used these days on far too many lame cars.

I think cannons look great on certain cars, 200's, supra's, and some wrx's, but its pathetic to see a 4" cannon on festiva's etc.

I actually like twin cannons on skylines.

And for what it's worth... here's my exhaust.

dual tips

That looks really nice ... wouldn't mind replacing my cannon with something like that.

Where did you buy it?

why not chop the old zorst off at the diff and keep it there and put in a 4 inch titanium straight thru zorst in, ending before the diff

that way it looks like a heap of shit, but u will turn heads when people here the nice roar when u take off

uhuhuhuhuhuhuh

ya i've got an apexi "super megaphone" cat back exhuast,,, it is so quiet!!!

sometimes i can't even tell if the engine is running or not.  

but with a name like "super megaphone" you'd think otherwise!! haha

its a bit on the shiny side though,,,

That's what I have on mine!!! lol :thumbsup:

agreed, cannons look good... only if on the right cars i.e our skylines, and other cars like em, ive noticed everyone has cannons as well.... shits me 2 tears when u see crap like excels and commys with em.... my icing on the cake but, in true ricer style i seen this dude crusin down sydey road ( melb. ) one time in a ford festiva, with cannon, shitty dragon graphics on the side and "trust, blitz, khs, trial and nismo ( yes you heard me.... nismo stickers on a ford ) " down the doors, are some people really that dumb? do they have any sense? are they even aware those companies dont even make parts for those cars? .....  

obviously not.

I had a blitz BOV in my excel before i got the skyline :D but yeah i agree, putting stickers on a car thinking it'll give you that extra 23kw is so rice it's not funny :P.. it was much better in the excel to shock the shit out of people when you could actually beat them hehe..

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
