Hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone here in VIC has a fujitsubo exhaust on their V35? If you do, come to the next meet! I wanna hear how it sounds in real life hahah, youtube videos don't do justice. I was thinking of getting the same exhaust, got a quote from Aaron@Import Monsters $980 landed!

Either that or the Exotic Speed exhaust.

From what i understand, the Fujitsubo is one of the more 'quiet' exhausts you can get, so while there may be some minor performance gains, from a sound perspective, it will sound quite close to stock. One of the Zclub members, Ana (Ms 3Fiddy) has it on her 350z roadster. You should pop by to their next meet to have a listen.

The Exotic Speed however, has more grunt in terms of sound. Was looking to get this but it was above my budget at $1,158 excluding delivery from ebay. Ask Shiva for his thoughts on this. He recently got one second hand for a bargain price on this forum :-)

My friend who recently picked up his V35 came with a fujitsubo off the boat. I'll make him attend the next Melb catch up.

Having researched, the fujitsubo comes under or right on the 90db threshold required by EPA.

I'm yet to hear it in person though, but $980 landed is pretty good considering conceptZ are selling for about $900USD before shipping.

Dan@Assaultech the vendor on the G35driver forums just got back to me and is only charging me $250 for shipping on the Exotic Speed exhaust! The exhaust itself from him is $700 and a Y-pipe for $215, although I'm going to be pairing the ExoticSpeed exhaust with the Motordyne XYZ w/Resonator. However the ExoticSpeed exhaust for the coupe model is around $850 and shipping may be a little bit more than mine. If anyone is interested http://g35driver.com/forums/exhaust-vendor/327033-exoticspeed-r1-t-rii-t-beautiful-sound-finish-assaultech-com.html

Okay, thanks Josh! Going to have trouble deciding between both exhausts :P

LOL yeah.. I'm just lying to myself ahahah

You will love it. I'm even thinking about top speed hks rep with magnaflow x pipe and test pipes. God damnn that'd sound mean. But end up costing well over 1k getting it modified and fitted :/

I'd post a photobucket vid of mine (nothing special just took it when I first installed it) but 36's sound different to 35's :P

The perfect exhaust for this kind of car, no ricey drone & a classy note on WOT rather than obnoxious noise

highly recommended

closest shop to me with a dyno that's all

Good call.

Sounds like the recording doesn't do your exhaust justice and even then it still sounds pretty good!

I just found out my exhaust guy has come back out of retirement so he'll be the one to work on the piping leading up to the Megan Racing muffler. The system he made for my Maxima was impeccable, achieving exactly what I wanted. I was just going to get him to swap the tips over from my stock muffler but I figure I'll make it worth both our while and go catback.

My v35 coupe has the fujitsubo legalis-r exhaust (no intake mods)

After listening to all the youtube vids, I would say this clip gives the most accurate sound if you can ignore the "burbly/popping" sound... the start-up, idle and revving (exluding the burble/popping) sound virtually identical to in the flesh.

The other thing is that it sounds nice and quiet in the cabin, which to me is a good thing.

That's the most important thing to me,

too many exhausts on the market just go for the sound on WOT which sounds awesome, but a droney exhaust on a long drive just gets annoying, i've been there & done that with my old r33

OP just get one, you won't be disappointed

Sounds great, really need to hear it in person hahah

Heyy Richard I just picked up my v35 few weeks ago and I think it came with Fujitsubo... I am not sure what exactly in there.. (Josh was talking about my v up there)..

I will try to come to the next months garage cafe meet. But If ur in a hurry PM me I am happy to catch up...

    • Please use a modern ECU. PowerFC with the Nintendo Gameboy controller is horrible. It's not 2005 anymore.
    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
