They are fitted factory to the rear muffler of Nissan R34 Skyline GT-T's

Ring a few japanese wreckers and see how you go, hopefully they'll still have some stock exhausts that retards haven't replaced with d***head chrome f@rt cannons.

Yes, the R34's have a switch to the right hand side of the steering column that switches between sports and silent mode.

It is an electrical actuator that sits in the exhaust. I cant' remember if its inside the rear muffler or just before it.

called an active exhaust. ferrari's have them. by passes the cat and other restrictions. there are a few on the market, the one i've seen is a cable system. if you handy making stuff you could scavenge an actuator off an ef varible intake and make it pritty trick

you almost need two pipes. mounted before the cat and runs back to bypass all the muffelers. or as many as you think nessisary. keep in mind if the police figure something funnys going on they'll drag you out of the car and beet you

He's not in Victoria so he'll be alright, to quote someone else on another forum, if he did it in Victoria he'd be shot on sight and a speed camera installed outside his house.
