I m thinking of getting some sort of "stock look" twin-tip muffler. The options so far are the hi-tech system they have on their website, magnaflow dual-tip system that came up on the forums before or two smaller mufflers stuck together. I m not a big fan of the latter - looks unprofessional.

What have people experienced with these systems? Are they as high flow as a cannon and less/more loud?

I had a twin 2" tip muffler coming off a 3" turbo back exhaust... It was way quieter but I got bored of it & dumped the f#ck off canon back on... I felt the twin 2" we holding a few Kw back at top end compared to my canon. Once putting the 4.5” tip back on top end just felt like it breathed easier & snapped that redline even quicker.

I have the Hi tech system, and its nice and quite compared to the cannon I had before, however, i feel it doesn't breath as good as the cannon, nothing too dramatic but still noticeable, (it may all be in my head though) :D I'm actually thinking in changing it back to a cannon again, we'll see.

Have you got a second muffler or a resonator in your exhaust? Because by the sound of it you don't really need it with the twin tip system.

No, no second muffler or resonator, if what you are after is a stock look without losing too much flow, and quite-ass this is it, (mind you, havent tried others)

Cool cool, kinda sucks that it looses a bit of flow with this system, however if it's small enough I can live it.

What I am wondering now is that how much flow would it loose if the power increases to about 200 kW on a R33 GTST.

How expensive was that to get done? 2 3" mufflers - thats twice the attention I am trying to avoid. I actually wouldn't mind having 2 smallish (like 2") cannons on either side of the car.

Being 3" mufflers, they are physically smaller than say a 5 or 6" cannon poking out from under your car.

I bought a twin system for a r33, then had it custom mounted to my r32. The actual mufflers sit further under my car than my old cannon did, and all you can see it the 2 x 2.5" tips

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.

      Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things

      My new to me M35 Stagea wagon

      By davemoto63 · Posted

      Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
