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..

    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
    • Summernats cruiser?
    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
    • But if you had to go bury a body in the forest, would you not put that in the boot? Most of them are >=90kg these days.
