Hi There,

Currently I have a fairly stock R33 gts-t, mods:

Boost - 9psi

K&N pod

Front Mount I/C

Oil/Air seperator

Last run on a dyno gave me 164 rwkw's.

I'm looking at getting an exhaust...

Firstly what is an expected increase in kw's (roughly)from fitting a new exhaust system?

Secondly I do not want a noisy exhaust (just a nice note), does this mean I go for 2.75" or a 3" pipe?

Thirdly, It seems I can only afford an Cat back system (for now), what type of power will I get exrta from a front pipe and dump?

Thanks for your help.

Ps. What does everyone think of the 2nd hand jap exhaust's?

well i got

full exhaust + custom dump pipe

hks fmic

s-afc

K/N Pod

and i made 165kw@wheels at 0.5 bar and 183kw@wheels at 0.9 bar just a few days ago!

And i got a custom made oil/air seperator going in but that wont give any more power just keep nasty oil vapour out of the intake!

Just as a guide:

'95 GTS-T, 65,000km

Cat back 3" exhaust

FMIC

HKS Pod Filter

2 Stage boost controller

Stock ECU

168rwkw @ 7psi

192rwkw @ 12psi (minor pinging)

I've been told by many people that the most restrictive part of the exhaust system is the front section. Im thinking of getting that done next and then a PowerFC.

Hope it helps...

Here is the scan of my dyno graph. I've noticed down the bottom that it was done in 'shootout mode' i have no idea about this sort of stuff but maybe it makes my figures higher or something.

Although i did get dyno'd with 20 other Skylines.

Dyno Graph

I believe the reason for my pinging (only noticable by the dyno guy with a headset thingy on) was coz i was using 95RON fuel and 10,000km old oil. (Both since changed) and it was also the 1st time i had used 12psi in around 12 weeks.

meggala

i will run u any time mate!! :D and yeah i wanna run mine on another dyno an see what i get. But it good to know race paces dyno reading are genuine unlike others!

Benm

Shootout mode is not normal and varies sumway!

and from your graph your comp must b chipped as your a/f ratios dont look factory otherwise they will be round the 10.0 mark!

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
