I got blitz. I like it. Bit big though. Can almost fit head in there lol. But it goes nice.

lol i dont mind how it looks. i just want it to perform well.

Cam - this is true. they are japanese and are pretty much 20 years ahead of us.. maybe just get it and ill edit it to be 'free flowing' if need be..

i like the Kakimoto!!

So get the Kakimoto!!

The blitz is quieter then the legalis? Holy cow...I would think the Legalis is probably the quietest aftermarket exhaust I've heard...

yeah, my Nismo exhaust is also quieter than the Legalis, although not by much and I am more going off what friends and family (they hear me when I roll up and drive off). This is purely due to a different rear muffler design to the Legalis (the rest of the unit is essentially the same).

The Kakimoto will be about the same volume as the Legalis but should have a deeper grumble.

thats exactly what i want!

jesse Streeter said $950 delivered brand new in about 6 days :)

me starts saving me thinks~!

WTF - that's freaking CHEAP

I paid $1k delivered for mine and it was 2nd hand pinch.gif

the fujitsubo is a more expensive exhaust in general, but on that Im just waiting on responses for what available in Jap.

Yeah, but don't you have to cut it to fit within the 1.5 max parcel size?

(Yes, I know you can get it welded, back together but still)

yeh the fujitsubo is 7cm too long to get air freighted, so he said he can cut one pipe in half for like an extra $10 or $15 dollars, which is much cheaper than having to pay extra for a bigger box.

unless I wanna wait 3 months and have it freighted with his next shipment. but im an impatient bugger.

cutting the pipe would definitely not effect performace. he said he'll mark a line to match up the join again when its hear... not too fussed. maybe it will fit better with a cut as I can adjust it.

fujitsubo Legalis R (2nd hand)67,000 yen .. i think this is the go. just waiting for confirmation on whether thats shipped or not.. he seemed pretty exited in the email lol

LOL Streeter is a champ.

Hmm this sounds all too familiar...about the cutting and the welding. In the end the Legalis I bought was air freighted over without any cuts, so I don't see why you would have to if you bought the same exhaust...

The Kaki on the other hand....:whistling:

Hmm, these were the prices I had for the exhaust when I last spoke with jesse (these are brand new prices)

Kakimoto R Muffler - 50,520yen. 1 in stock.

box size is 1800x350x450mm

Fujitsubo Legalis R Muffler - 67,400yen. few in stock.

box size is 1570x620x320mm

He did say the kaki is def over the 150cm limit...

I paid 48,500 excluding shipping on mine...

thats what he said so Im guessing its not including shipping. well i have about 1,000 to spend on the exhaust, plus whatever Scott wants for the front pipe.

any one got either the legalis or kakimoto

which do you reckon is better

either one of those to ill get

i want to get the takeros full titan yet the pipe is 100mm , larger then the desired 80mm for better flow as all the decate pipes are all 80mm as well

scotts gotten 300awkw with a legalis, and a self fabricated front and dump pipe with a 100 cpsi cat.

i should have the kakitmoto by mid march and a tune and should be able to let you know..

300 awkw with just the exhaust mods?

Er, no.

I'll let Scotty fill you in, but suffice to say it's been EXTENSIVELY developed.

R.I.P.S have quite a job ahead of them.

Edited by Daleo

300 awkw with just the exhaust mods?

lol no, im just saying it was able to handle his other mods and flow enough.

to agree with dale, RIPS are in for a good nightmare, and you should have a nice bill lol

    • jeebus. glad you weren't under it while performing the stunt. Also thanks for the link to the wheel measurer, exactly what I needed
    • In the older stuff there were very significant differences 2wd to 4wd, for example Stagea had strut front end for 2wd and double wishbone for 4wd so it was not minor to swap. From poking around the 2wd v37, it *looks* like it might be more possible; some of the parts specifically have "2wd" stamped on them which suggests the platforms are more similar. You'd still want to start with a 4wd half cut to swap stuff from though. I'd suggest if you don't have a tune on the ECU you don't really need one on the trans either. Throttle mapping is in the ECU side (and you can always use a Roar Pedal if you want the throttle to actually respond to your foot), and really if you are happy with the stock power you probably accept the stock trans behaviour too....its all made to be "sporty" not racey.
    • So, updates. I have not washed the car since it came back from Tassie. I've driven it around a bit but not got around to actually sorting it out. I DID raise it because I cracked the rear bar leaving a hotel which was very distressing. Interestingly, the car drives more compliant now that it's raised a fair bit (5mm front, 15mm rear). Also noticed that my FR height was 10mm lower than FL. So that's now sorted out, too. I also bought this and had it printed: https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/1576422240/wheel-and-tire-fitment-tool-universal?ref=shop_home_feat_1&dd=1&logging_key=08f604d9fa4cc383550ba985e6ac85cd5cac7fbb%3A1576422240 Now, if I was smart I would have taken my brake calipers off to actually use this correctly but it was evident enough to me that in the region where the caliper was... there was nothing to hit suspension/guard/arm wise. So I'm going with "it'll be fine" after using the tool to hopefully very precisely measure the wheel clearance. Also while doing this, I had the very VERY bad idea of jacking one of the wheels/suspension arms up while the rest of the car was on jack stands. I did this to see how the arm would travel. This all was well and good until the car slid off the stands and went through a fence. So don't do that. Incredibly nobody was hurt and there was only minor damage to the rear bumper as the car didn't have far to slide, and had 3-4 wheels on it. The only damage turned out to be the fence itself which was easy to fix, and a little bit of damage to the fibreglass rear bumper trim. I had already planned to try a touch up paint kit to fix the time I drove into my garage door to see if it'd help in the interim before I get it fixed properly. I used the Dr Colorchip kit after looking online and seeing everyone talking about it. Yes it's made for chips and not huge broken missing pieces and I'll be 500% recommending it for stone chips after using it for stupid things like me. This took about ... 10 minutes and looking at the half assed photo the 30 second job I did on the bumper corner was almost perfect just by using the tiny little brush and painting it in. The sealact stuff to remove over-painting is really useful, so if/when I do it again I'll likely slather the touch up paint well over it and then clean it up with the cleaning solution. The wheels should arrive in a couple of weeks. I am still kinda confident after doing a stupid amount of measuring (and borrowing a set of 18x10.5+15) that they will not fit because I overlooked something, somehow and flew too close to the sun. ALSO R34 GTR guard liners do not fit on a GTT. I bought the undertray brake duct guides and had the wonderful problem of them not fitting my intake, my oil cooler and the liners themselves were even worse. Attempting to fit them won't work in general - You would have to cut them up as another poster mentioned as the bodywork is different on the GTT. At least I can try to resell them. So instead of cutting those up, I cut up my old already-cut-up GTT liners and extended them by using some PP plastic and drilling some 8mm holes for some nissan clips for the 'extra' bit. Because I was happy to cut them I was able to mount them pretty damn forward so I now have some semblance of guard liners, and the brake vents seal the bumper from the bottom. It sort-of-looks like this, to give some idea - If you look at the GTR and then the GTT this is when I realised that I needed to seriously measure as the inside of the rim area is entirely, entirely, entirely different and could not take any internet measurements for granted.   
    • If you are Ecutek tuned then these TCU tunes are anywhere from $550 to $700 usd. If you are not ECUTEK tuned, then it gets costly!    
    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
