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

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
