Inf Posted March 3, 2004 Share #1 Posted March 3, 2004 I searched the galleries and couldnt find any pics of the 432 exhaust plumbing (based on keywords people put in). Could someone post a pic of the underbody with a good view of how the twin pipes are arranged?Thanks in advance Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/10541-432-exhaust-pic-request/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
v12horse Posted March 4, 2004 Share #2 Posted March 4, 2004 I don't know if this is going to help you, but here is a picture of an exhaust system for a Z styled after the 432 type made by TRUST. Whether it is true to the 432's I am not sure. Alan would know for sure. I have no clue if it would be accurate or not, but you could have 2manyzs take a photo of the undercarriage of his kyosho z432-r. Hehehe. Just a thought. Good luck on finding that 432 set up. That would be awesome if you did that for your Z. -Ben:classic: Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/10541-432-exhaust-pic-request/#findComment-71074 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inf Posted March 4, 2004 Author Share #3 Posted March 4, 2004 Thanks for the reply v12horse, I was thinking of gathering together some pics and finding a decent exhaust shop to fab up something similar connected to set of 3-2 headers without the collector.This will help a lot.Pics of the system installed would also be very usefulThanks Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/10541-432-exhaust-pic-request/#findComment-71077 Share on other sites More sharing options...

HS30-H Posted March 11, 2004 Share #5 Posted March 11, 2004 Hi Andrew, Sorry for chiming in late on this one. I see you have had some good help from v12horse already. I can recommend the TRUST system, and many Japanese owners use them on their cars. The centre resonators are not exactly the same as the originals ( which used a single long and slightly flattened oval box ) but it looks correct in most respects and sounds good. They are fairly inexpensive too. Here's a pic comparing the standard L-series 6 system with that of the S20 system. Its from an official Nissan publication. Hopefully it might help a little? Cheers, Alan T. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/10541-432-exhaust-pic-request/#findComment-72151 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisA Posted March 11, 2004 Share #6 Posted March 11, 2004 Hey Guys, that TRUST system looks sweet. Anybody know where I can get one? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/10541-432-exhaust-pic-request/#findComment-72171 Share on other sites More sharing options...
HS30-H Posted March 11, 2004 Share #7 Posted March 11, 2004 I suggest that you try asking one of the companies that imports TRUST parts to the USA. I believe that they should be able to order it for you. You might want to scan the USA import tuning magazines for a suitable candidate.HOWEVER, don't forget that the TRUST system is designed to bolt to EITHER the standard exhaust manifold ( ie - not particularly efficient or performance oriented ) or to their own 6-branch tubular exhaust manifold. Please remember that an exhaust manifold designed for an RHD car - especially a tubular 'performance' type one - will not necessarily fit an LHD car........The system itself - from the manifold joint back - should fit any LHD or RHD S30-series Z with no problems. Its just that manifold issue that you need to beware......Alan T.

ChrisA Posted March 11, 2004 Share #8 Posted March 11, 2004 Thanks for the heads up Alan. I googled for TRUST exhaust distributors and came up with nothing. Guess I'll just have one made locally.

HS30-H Posted March 11, 2004 Share #9 Posted March 11, 2004 Chris,Don't give up after just a fruitless Google search!I know there are umpteen TRUST importers in the USA. At least one of them should be able to help you. They may even have a USA office for all I know....These systems are not all that expensive ( although I don't have any ready figures to quote you off the top of my head ) so it could well be easier and not all that much more expensive to get the TRUST system. At least you would know that it works, fits right ( from the manifold back..... ) and is a well-trusted part in the Japanese Z scene. Sorry about the pun........Like I said, don't give up on it.Good luck,Alan T.

Inf Posted March 11, 2004 Author Share #11 Posted March 11, 2004 I briefly did some research and found that Trust is mainly known as Greddy (http://www.greddy.com) here in the US. The US website for greddy didn't seem to have any stuff for the S30, or any products marketed as Trust.The Japanese website for Trust is http://www.trust-power.com .I poked around with my limited knowledge of japanese, but couldn't seem to find anything for the S30 other than an NA exhaust manifold, and a pretty nice looking stainless twin turbo manifold (but expensive! 190,000 yen).I saw a new (or maybe NOS?) Trust 432 style exhaust system on ebay a while back, and it had a pretty high base bid. Don't remember if it ended up actually selling or not.Edit : found it by searching the forums - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33630&item=2459181642According to the seller the parts are discontinued. It would probably be cheaper to have someone local put one together anyway I would expect.
