what the hell is your problem man!!!
the buyer is spending the money not you
if u want to buy some over price hks product then do it
but if someone decided to purchase some rep exhaust is their problem
not yours
so i think if u decide to BS in this thread u better start another one
as ELE said...this is for someone with rusted problem!!

Work S1s and can't spend a couple hundred more for a better exhaust? Come on bro, you are more ballin than me, haha.


In any case, an exhaust rusting = fail. I'd rather put on universal mufflers that wouldn't rust. (Magnaflow, sebring, ect)

You paid, 580 for a TD? Pay another 300-400 and you will easily have a good condition used exhaust that will guarantee not to rust. HKS, Stillen, AAM, Whatever you want. Fast intentions for around 1000 new too. X02 is not the business.. but different strokes for different folks. I could not put on an exhaust that rusts on a 350z. And my post was directed at PinoiZ, who could afford S1s but not a decent exhaust. =P Most true duals are between 1000-1500 max. Used are usually going for under a grand..

exactly what I was talking about. Not trying to rag on you guys, I've bought replica parts before, but I had to learn the hard way that it's not worth it if you are serious about modifying your car and having it last to enjoy it.

I have the XO2 Exhuast as well....

I just lifted the car in Jan? No rust yet.... Yes there was FITMENT issues but a good muffler shop would fix that...

BTW, I own a g35 coupe...

I dont see why people are bashing for having this exhuast...I was going to get the HKS but 1250-1300 was kind of out of price range for an Exhaust.

thats true.
but i don't own the exhaust, i was figuring it was $580. but its actually like $380. its all in the taste though. i want something loud you know. the only exhaust i wanted before was the HKS, but its $$$. i already dropped like over 2k on wheels and suspension this week so im wanna take it easy for a lil haha.

and plus, the XO2 is 2.5 inch piping. which i thought the hks was too but its not. and i figured there are ways to prevent rust, so why not do that.

ya i agree with you. i mean, i dont put any generic **** on my car at all, but i figured its a good looking exhaust, similar to the hks. so why not. i think the topspeed exhaust looks like crap. like 2 pepsi cans stuck to 2 pipes.

but about the bashing, alot of owners with an hks will obviously say alot of crap about the xo2. but w.e

Someone got their panties all twisted up. When did I talk trash about your exhaust? I simply stated that an exhaust rusting is not excusable. Did I tell you what to buy? NO, I simply gave my opinion about the X02 exhaust. I could careless if you wanted to slap coffee cans on. i just stated its not the business IMO. This is what a forum is for... but i hope your happy with your exhaust. You are the one making dumb assumptions. Not me. How did i ever disrespect your x02 exhaust? The hell is wrong with people on this forum. Get all insecure about the exhaust and making dumb assumptions that I claimed this and that when I didnt... but its ok budddy, plus 1000 FOR YOU!

Inner feelings about yourself? Sorry if your pops thought an HKS was too damn expensive. Another dumb false accusation you make to defend your 400 dollar exhaust. Good for you. I don't care what you put on your car for the last time. Hopefully you'll put folgers on your car next, as there are ways to prevent that from rust too. WD40 FTMFW.

You were the one that called someone else a baller for buying a nice exhaust. I just said you are ballin too with work s1s, and that you could probably afford a nicer exhaust.. thats all..... case closed

I was in the market for a X02 myself. But seeing the problems just wasn't worth it for me. If its worth it to you, great! Different strokes for different folks. But like I said before. Don't get your panties all twisted over the internet my man. It's my opinion only.. take it with a grain of salt.

First of all...it is a cheap HKS lookalike. There is no doubt about it. The Xo2, after all of the rusting issues, deserves to be called cheap. The exhaust is practically a HKS exhaust made out of cheap metal that has a tendency to rust. There is no big deal. You get for what you pay. Although it certainly is a true dual, and many argue that it is the best bang for the buck, there is simply no excuse for the rust.

Unlike the xo2, the nismo exhaust is actually quality stuff. And no, we didn't pay 1250 for our exhaust. And no again, you did not pay less than half of that to do the same thing. Because unlike you, my exhaust doesn't have any rust on it, and i don't need to purchase ebay burnt titanium tips to make my exhaust look new again.

Sorry if i hurt your feelings. It is what it is. The xo2 exhaust certainly does a great job at 400 dollars, but i guess if you don't mind rusting, than it was 400 dollars well spent

Hold on, are you telling me a X02 is
A) Not Loud
B) Not cheap
C) Not a HKS knockoff


Did I spite you to post because I stated things that were true? I didn't even directly call you out but we got people like you getting offended because I say their X02 is cheap loud and looks like an HKS...

FAIL

I certainly am not mad. Another one has risen and has gotten their panties in a bunch. Get over it. An X02 is a Knockoff, that is LOUD like a HKS and cheap UNLIKE a HKS. Come on Playa. I paid half of your weaksauce 1250+ estimate, playa!

I could careless what you put on your car. Glad you like it.

I got another sick deal for you. Cut your springs to get the stance coilover drop! then you'll pay like.. less than 10% to slam the ride.. How's that for a sick deal.

LOL if you think I am offended, I am certainly nott... just bursting your bubble man

Anyways, Yes i do know what i got and what i was getting into. As far the RUST goes, I just found out about it by reading this thread, i didnt know if had rust issues. I bought the exhuast when they first introduced it, bought last summer (july)?? I just lifted the car at Infiniti in Jan. and everything seemed OK, no rust and what not... Even the techs there were surprised by this exhaust system.

In the mean time, I like it, im not saying I WOULD NOT get the HKS if I had the money.
