hmmmm here's my opinion. I think those would be wayyyy too overboard for a mostly stock z with stock tips. Imo, to successfully pull that look off, u will need a lot of supporting visual mods. Else, the tips alone will come off as cheesy and trying too hard to get attention for the wrong reasons.


hah, i think ill be okay. Mar car looks far from stock as far as the visual mods are concerned.

The tips will also match my wheels/headlights/lip

There will be tips made available for the slip-on exhausts. Are there any more that anyone is aware of?

I appreciate all the feedback and help from all of you. A lot of the information you all are providing is helping me make these available to the Z community. It's also got me making a few different versions (mounting options). I believe that two to three different mounting options will allow for almost anyone to be able to install these...with varying degrees of difficulty, of course. Econ's doing the most difficult. Looking forward to the pics and review. :)

I designed the GTR version and once Zohair saw it on the car he wanted it on the kit. I continue to hand make them for Boost Logic for now, but they are made by hand and not near the quality you are seeing here. You guys are getting my best work yet. :)

Thanks for the explaination. Love these tips... Great job! If you can make one that slips onto the HKS exhaust tips, I'll buy it asap!

It doesn't look like those slip on, so they would require the cut and weld. The ones for the ARK system are also designed to slip over 2-1/2" (63.5mm) tubing, while the others are 2-3/8" (60mm) tubing (including the HKS pipe). Once we get Econ's on and documented, I'll build and release version 2. If I can't figure out how to kill two birds with one stone, then there will also be a version 3. One will be clamp fit, one will be just like Econs...weld on.

The HKS system has a slip on titanium tip that's adjustable in how far it protrudes out the rear bumper. It goes completely outside the inner tip.

hm...let me PM you something...

for those that are interested, my whole car will be parted out in the coming months, and someone can be the lucky owner of an ark with the tips already installed.

(after i install, review, and post lots of pictures of course)

somatic 08-26-2011 12:15 PM

phelan 08-26-2011 12:22 PM

b1adesofcha0s 08-26-2011 12:23 PM

Yea, I will most probably be selling it (after 6 months of ownership). Need to buy a house soon, and my Z cant tow the boat I want to buy next april. :shakes head:


just need to have 1 vehicle that can do it all. Sucks, i love my car.

Also anthony. I will be having you guys do the install on these. I'll give you a call, and we can talk about it. I mentioned it to Andrew a month ago.
