VE SS-V "Washer Mod" ($1 exhaust)

[jonnyd1986]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1r-GvMgNvo&feature=channel

Just a video i put together of the "washer mod" last week.

I put two washers between the flanges, on bottom bolts only near the rear mufflers.

Its a popular mod in the US. I thought I'll give it a try. It sounded great but the drone was a little to much for me so i removed the washers. I did love the noise it made though!

My car also had the pacemaker 1 3/4 4-1s and the 100cpi ballistic cats in for all of the footage on the video.

What you you fellas think?

Doesn't sound bad at all. Shame about the drone.

Do all VE dashs look like that? It needs white needles like the VYs to break up the colour!

[Knawful]

2.5" cat back will sound similar, have less drone, and be legal. :)

yeah not sure. I think most ve's have the red dash. It is a bit much but looks good.

Yeah true. But for $1 and 10 minutes its worth a try ey? I didn't even have to jack the car up. Since then I've removed the washers because it was a bit loud and droned a bit around 2000 rpm.

What a difference uncorking the pipes makes eh?Sounds cool,but droning will do your head in.

[KuRT12]

How does one do this? a guide?

[aedeau]

How does one do this? a guide?

basically by adding 1 or 2 washers between the flange that bolts the rear mufflers on. It basically creates an exhaust leak. Lots of people in the US do it to their G8 GTs (VE SSs here).

g8board.com or youtube should have lots of clips

[JaMeS_2007]

sounds horrible i think

[jonnyd1986]

sounds horrible i think


Yeah its not the best note but for around 1 buck its worth a bash if you don't have the coin for a cat back.

To the non v8 enthusiast (95 % of people) would think it sounds great.

:D

[KuRT12]

There was a fair increase in sound Before and after though for only a $1

however youtube sound quality isnt the greatest

[jai]

Your revving movie is as rediculous as the mod itself.

EVERY exhaust leak sounds crap!

[BECAUZ]

This maybe stupid but what do you guys mean by drone?
Like laggish?

[The_Senator]

Drone is a booming noise inside the cabin..

You get it a particular RPM range with some after market exhausts. Usually around 1800-2200 rpm..

The VE's are particulary bad for it.. A good design after market exhaust is a must for these... Else - Dreaded Drone..

[jonnyd1986]

Here's a new video i put together of the "washer mod". I was bored yesterday so i put the washer's back in. I'll probably take them out again soon.

Got some drive by footage this time. Sounds better driving past then just free reving. I gave it a bit of curry in this time too.

Let me know what you fellas think of this one. :)

If you do it, make up a video of it and post it on here. :)

Um i think it might have a bit more go. It defiantly didn't slow it.

Hmm thats why i only did the bottom bolts but theres many blokes in the US have been running washers on top and bottom bolts for months and have no issues with the fuel tank of emissions!

I dont get any smell in the car, even when stopped.

And some people cant afford cat backs. So they can give this a go while saving up for a proper cat back like manta, F1, or KPM instead of the restrictive X-force or perry 2.5" or and a drony X-force 3".

Like i said before i'll probably change it back in a week again.

Steady on mate. There's no need for that.


Why would you bother ???? :confused::confused:

Why wouldn't he? 15 minutes of time.

Not every one can afford a blown hummer H2 mate.

[BECAUZ]

Ok so its not the right thing to do but i honestly reckon it sounds good. Im surprised to how loud it actually sounds. You can notice it when the video turned to night you could be heard a fair way away. Although you are out bush but still sounds good.:goodjob:

One question tho what is this......

pacemaker 1 3/4 4-1s and the 100cpi ballistic cats?

[Nidz]

LOL.. If you can't afford a proper exhaust maybe the V8 modding game isn't for you. Sell it and go back to modding a 4cylinder Ricer or something cheaper.

[QIKMIK]

Got any close up photos of this mod? When I changed the Lumina system over to the dual/quad Clubsport one, I did the obligatory free rev with no rears that we all love to do and the six has quite a nice note. May give this one a try.

Btw, shouldn't be an issue with the fuel tank as it is a saddle tank under the rear seat, not a droppy like they used to be.

Mick

[jonnyd1986]

LOL.. If you can't afford a proper exhaust maybe the V8 modding game isn't for you. Sell it and go back to modding a 4cylinder Ricer or something cheaper.

Lol mate.. i cant afford a proper exhaust? I have 1 3/4" 4-1 pacemakers with 100cpi cats fitted to a stock catback and Tein coilovers.

I actually want it quite 90% of the time. So for fun i chucked in the washers for a couple weekends.

I've just got my sefl ziggy's OTR for it last week. Now i've got it booked in for a maffless tune this Friday at Active Automotives.

I'm 23 and dont owe anything on the car and have land so i'm doing okay.

[Nidz]

Well that's cool but I still don't understand why you'd wanna do that to your zorst if it's already that good. Sounds like something V6 boys would do to get a bit more loudness from there 6's.

[KuRT12]

So many negative bastards on this forum... lol

[wikky]

So many negative bastards on this forum... lol

And so many great mod ideas too...

[hendinas]

So many negative bastards on this forum... lol

agreed, im still paying off my LS1, and saving my pretty pennies for all the mods I want to do. Untill such time as I can afford a Sureflow stainless 3.5 in cat back system, this mod might be just the ticket.

does anyone know if this works on a VT HSV exhaust? might give it a go over the weekend.

[VXSS346]

I reckon that's a real dumb idea, yeah it sounds ok, but drone as high as 2000rpm will drive you nuts eventually. Probably within a week.

Also, and more importantly, it will produce extra heat/gasses under the car. That's near the fuel tank too. :hmmm: Very stupid I reckon.

Don't do it.

Cheers :)

[ATOMIC MALOO R8]

way not put some electrically operated DUMPS in the system can by them from speed inc

[Souljah]

Just think, i spent money on replacing a rusty pipe that had a hole in it when really i didn't have too! :lol:

[Spider]

Reminds me of the old days when dudes used to drill holes in their exhaust :rofl:

[`redoctober]

I don't care what you guys say, I'm still interested to see what it'll sound like on my V6, if it sounds good I'll keep it :)

And like QIKMIK said, it's a saddle tank under the rear seat, no petrol tank issues there.

Let's see how I go :D

"Of course it's safe officer...Thats not fair putting a canary on my car for leaking exhaust"

People doing stupid shit like this makes the real streeters look more like hoons.

We all in the same interest here but making you exhaust sound good by creating leaks??? What next??
Just take your whole catback off:confused:

Fuel tanks are under there and too me why would you want to risk a leak in the tank and straight exhaust in that area????
Each to their own i guess?
Only my opinion again too so go to town little boys........

Ya know like the old footy card in the spokes trick. Sounds like a beast but goes like shite.

[BadSeed]

why would you go out and buy a ve then buy headers and cats, coilovers.. and put 1 dollar washers in the catback to get sound.. this cars just missing some stock omega rims without the hubcaps and a transformers sticker imo

[Nidz]

I just get a crushed coke can and wedge it in up under the mud guard.. Then it sounds like a motorbike...

We added a few washers to my mates ute and I'm damned is I could hear any difference.. In fact it slowed the car down heaps..

I think the majority of you fools are missing the point

[LooneyR8]

I think the majority of you fools are missing the point

And what would that point be? Just asking

[Nidz]

The point is if you add 2 washers in between your catback, you get a hot sounding growl. Pretty much like drilling a hole in your muffler like the kids back in the 80's used to do.. Also adds 5RWKW didn'tcha know..

All kinds of mods can end up in a Canary on the car..
Infact the majority of mods in the My Ride section are probably non ADR compliant.

Atleast this is a simple fix if you get caught.

In regards to your comment, it does seem to be an age thing though. Scroll back through the previous posts and have a look at the ages of the people who think this mod is worthwhile. It does seem to be a certain demographic in my eyes.

I dont have any car at the moment, i was rear ended in my SV6 a few months ago and it was written off. Im in the process of getting it replaced, possibly with an SS from the insurance company.

However that has nothing to do with this, i personally wouldnt do it and i had a Walky cat-back on my previous car.

All i am stating is that the majority of you guys are missing the point and making ridiculous stereotypical statements.

Like Because im 19 i would be all for this right? Right after i break the $10 note for the fluffy dice. :confused:

[jonnyd1986]

I did it for fun mate. I had a spare 10 minutes one day so i decided to give it ago, after seeing some videos of blokes doing it to their pontiac G8's in America.

I've taken it washers out again. So its back to normal.

I don't want it loud so i dont need a cat back. Plus if i upgraded the cat back to a 2.5" (which is quietish) i'd only gain max 15hp. For $800+ for 15 hp is'nt worth it at this stage.

The cat back i wouldn't mind eventually is a KPM or F1 but for $2000+ for 15hp isn't really worth it unless you were Bill Gates.

I'd get pulled over every day for excessive noise if i had a cat back, at the pace i punt around town.

Just say its my "loud car fix" for a few months. Then I'd probably do it again. ;)

I think it sounds better then some cat backs especially the Xforce varex exhaust on half shut or shut. That sounds like a leaky exhaust!

well i thought id give this mod a try,seeing its so simple to do,im saving up for a exhaust and tune atm,so thought this might give me a short term fix,
really easy to do didnt even have to jack the car up,im not worried about the exhaust leak ,its at the back of the rear tyres ,no where near the fuel tank,first off i left the gasket in ,loosened off the top bolts and put one washer on the bottom,sounded great ,you couldnt even tell it was coming under the car,still had plenty coming out the pipes.still not quite loud enough for me ,so i removed the gasket all together and put 2 spring washers on the bottom ,this now sounds tuff,you still wouldnt pick it as an exhaust leak,seriously sounds like a sports system,this is on my ss ute,might be a bit drony in a sedan,all i can say is try it ,it costs nothing takes 5 minutes to do,and soungs great ,seriously doesnt sound like a leak;and by putting the washers on the bottom only its forcing the exhaust towards the ground,just my 2 cents:soap:

[wikky]

$1 for a/couple of washers? You monkeys are getting ripped off. Shouldn't cost you more than 40c. Bwahahahahaha. :lmao:

Haha I cant believe all the bashers or trolls lurking out there? Or maybe some upset guys who are reconsidering their wise 5k investment on a zorst for street cred? WHO CARES? I say good job for giving it a go! As for the zorst catching the fuel tank on fire? BETTER watch out all you guys driving behind a smoker who ashes or flicks a butt out the window, certain doom will surely come!LOL. Any of you guys been to a drag meet where the fuel cell containing methanol sits in the engine bay alongside a filthy big glowing red hot turbo? Maybe more risk there eh?ANDRA says ok so I dont see that the washer mod is even a quarter of the risk?Exhaust fumes you say? Bah... wind down your window in ANY major cirty and breath in 200% more emissions that you could ever hope to get from the washer mod! Drone? If you cant live with it dont do it....oh well another 15 mins wasted changing it back! Dont like the sound? Better than a stocker I say! See previous line. Not happy with your 5k zorst note/drone etc UNLUCKY!LOL....leave em be!
I am not trying to have a go at anyone here but merely pointing out the fact it works and if YOU like it ...go for it, but dont bash em cause your bored?

[RED R8]

Give the kid a break ...He tried something no more illegal than most cars on here it sounded better took five minutes and cost $1 who cares ..I spend 12k to make my car illegal sound tuff and fill the cabin with fuel smell (big cams will do that). How many catbacks cost 2k sound sh1t and drone ? so what if his fun little cheep mod came from isle 13 at bunnings we have all done something like that. I remember my first decent maf pipe coming off the ryobi leaf blower I got for xmas but due to heaps of heat soak i ended up sealing the pod from the engine bay with a plastic waste bin nicely cut and shaped...this saw me run 12's with a crap tune and home made intake.

haha this reminds me of the time we copied the KFC Zinger ad and made a cardboard bodykit for my mates VL, drove down the street and round the corner and got pulled over by the cops and told to take it all off.

the things you do when your 18!

[Lorne Mauer]

I went down to Ghetto town for Bathurst weekend....took out the gasket and fitted one 12mm flat washer on the bottom bolt on each side....after reading all the varied replies and results on this and the G8 forums, I just had to give it a try for $hits and Giggles.
this is on a Ute so no issues with gasses entering cabin from way back there. the 12mm flat Gal washers are a bit too thin so it has slight "fartyness" at idle, but has a nice mild improvement to general tone. sounds ok to me under light and heavy throttle, some very minor pops and crackles on decel. I only did a quick loop around town and a lash up the highway on Saturday morning before The missus took the keys and buggered off to the Goldy for the weekend. She reported that it sounded no different to standard on the highway but nice improvement that she finds agreeable if not loud enough for her tastes. so I might have to whack a few more washers in for more $hits and Giggles and see how bad she likes the noise and how much drone she can handle.
Before the anti-washer brigade climb aboard the soap box, I should add this will be a temporary arrangement. Think of it as allowing me to test the noise levels of various alternative exhaust systems while having no more than a few washers invested. Sure there are plenty of sound files on the web but they are no substitute for hearing it and living with it yourself. If I find we like it loud and drone is a non issue, then I can choose the appropriate system that will satisfy those requirements and be happy in the knowledge I didn't waste time and money trying out all sorts of different systems. I have the extra issue of making sure the system we end up with wont be annoying for long trips towing....we do a lot of that....not many sound files of that available.

Cheers LM.

Nidz, I see you used stainless washers. Maybe try galvanised? Might do the trick. I hear they have a great 'spin' cycle too. And at the moment you can get washers on 12 months interest free!

Good to see people having fun with mods!

Fair enough to those that think it's unsafe - but boys will be boys - though to those who dont know where the fuel tank is, well that says a lot and brings me to my next point....

using 12mm split lock washers is good but if you use flat washers, put them in cold and don't torque them up too tight then you can add a nice "ringa ding ding" rattle to the pops and crackles:goodjob:
