Thumbs up Fujitsubo Titanium Exhaust Installed

Just got it in the mail today. I bought it already broke in (BIG THANKS YUICHI)

B Pipe:


Muffler:


Stock on scale:


Fujistubo on scale:


Fujistubo pipe on scale:


On Car:




Impressions:

Very light !!!!

It sounds great. Not loud at all, very tuned sound . . .deeper. This is even with headers and hi-flow cats.

Looks very very nice. I wish stock had looked this nice. The large tips dont look out of place at all. I was worried but it looks great.

Unfourtunaly I have could not tell you if there is more power. At this point in my mods it takes a significant power increase for me to tell seat of the pants. Dynos are in the future.

I do ask that you keep any ill willed pricing comments to yourself. I bought this for myself, and am proud to have it.

Nice.

I'd love to come up one day to see and hear it, but I've got so much school work I can't be leaving here.

You know I may just have to break her in some more. I just might up and decide to come down there.

Looks great! I can't wait to get one when I get my Roadster!

Can you see the Logo clearly and do the pies give a polished look?

No the tips are not polished. They have a satin look about them. As you can see the b-pipe has some color in it, but the tips don’t. I don’t know if the tips will change, time will tell. With tips this big I don’t know that you would want polished. The pics are a little deceiving . . .but the tips are 4.5" in diameter.

As far as importing . . .I am not sure. The lineage on this one is it was originally brought over by 350z_tako. I am not for certain, but I hear there maybe another one stateside floating around for sale. Other than that I think you will have to go through gruppe-s or someone.

courtesyparts.com has it for 2199.00 total. Japanparts has it for 1800.00 but I think that is for the muffler only. I think I will get his than the Nismo exhaust.

Vandy.. didn't you just get an Apex exhaust not too long ago? Or was that Chris?

I thought I recall you posting videos not too long ago.

That was chris with the apex.

After another day and some additonal miles, it sounds GREAT. I cant explain it. Much more sound below 3500 rpm than stock. Above 6600 it sounds like it was meant to be up there.

I am loving this exhaust.

Doesn't this exhaust use 3" piping? I thought the Y pipe had a 3" collector on it..

So any difference in power delivery in your opinion at all? I've heard this thing a few times.. I feel its the sweetest sounding exhaust out there.. second only to maybe the Tommy Kaira.
