Ive be "upgrading" my build over this winter, figured id share a few pictures see what you guys think..

Put on a bigger turbo 6766.... so, i figured we needed something cooler than 3in Stainless exhuast.

I built a new 3.5 inch stainless downpipe (black part) and 4 inch aluminum downpipe back and used a vibrant aluminum race muffler.. anyone ever hear one of those?

curious on how its gonna sound with the aluminum muffler and pipe..

Nice work man, looks really good, I'm oh so jealous of your 6766. Have a build thread for this car? If you did all the weld and fab work it looks really nice. I'm just starting to.learn how to tig weld as of last weekend and absolutely am loving it!

i had a build thread for it a couple years ago.. but its gone thru alot of changes since then, so i guess i dont..

I did fabricate and weld it all myself, even made the flanges... F U vbands!!

Tig welding is definatly awesome, ive had my tig for quite a while, i just dont get to use it as much as i should, so im still not that great at it..


240z4u, im sure it will be louder than it was before but im hoping it will be tolerable at cruise and low rpms.. i dont care how loud it is when i get on it..

If its out of control loud i will be putting on a larger magnaflow muffler... The Vibrant aluminum muffler only weighs 2.4lbs and was cheaper than the magnaflow so i had to try it out

I think it will he fine noise wise.. i run a 3.5" straight with one dynomax bullet... It's tolerable, turbine kills a lot of the noise.

yeah, vibrant sells alot of neat stuff everything i have ever gotton from them seems legit..

hopefully this motor will be running in the next couple weeks... I havent really seen many people put the rb26 head on the rb25 block, it was fairly easy to do.. we'll see how it goes
