Post a vid of how your exhaust sounds too?
|
Car looks good OP! I remember that white Z on the right. He's the guy with varrstoens with works decals lol
|
I spot a Tomei titanium exhaust. It looks like gold in person, beautiful, light weight and amazing sound note. Great choice on exhaust mod. For single exhaust setup, Tomei is all the way, I would not buy anything else.

They were actually Work wheels. Not sure why a lot of people thought they were Varrstoens. Thanks Bmurray! :thumbup:

Didn't know that man. I could've sworn those were Works since when he got them it all had the official Work wheels box.

Tomei is soooo overrated

Yup, I was so undecided on what I actually wanted. It was between the Tomei and Amuse. Wanted to stick JDM. I'm pretty sure the Amuse would have been good too, but there hasn't been any more information in regards to that exhaust. I know there is another red nismo in Carolina that runs the Amuse setup. As for the stock vs Tomei. The rear Nismo muffler section was 27.5 lbs, while the rest of the rear section of the exhaust before the y pipe weighed in about 10 lbs. So roughly around 40 lbs gone. It definitely woke the whole car up.
Are you running their y pipe too, and PPE LTH? If not yet, these should be your next mods. Trust me, you would love the sound even more. |

The reason I choose Tomei vs Amuse or any other JDM brand is because of the affordable price on full titanium constructed material exhaust and no long wait. Also, I like their slip joints design makes it easy to install and adjust the exhaust for clearance issue. Most important, it makes power.

Right, that is exactly why I went with Tomei. Didn't have to wait 3 months for it to come in overseas. I'm getting the Tomei Y Pipe soon. Still running the stock y pipe and stock cats. I plan on dynoing it once I get the car back from warranty work. Then I'll dyno again with the y pipe to see the difference. I've thought about PPE Headers, but for right now I just want to get the y pipe and drive the car some more. haha

Yup. I have a buddy of mine here (same car, but full bolt ons minus headers) who dynoed at 290whp on a dynapack.
|
I'm not sure if my ears are ready for the PPE's. lol

Assume this is on an HR, right?
I am so addicted to the sound now, I just want to step on WOT when I got a chance to drive it on the street. On the track, it's heaven. |
