Axle back exhaust?
 
So im looking to buy a axle back exhaust for now until i get a full cbe. The axle backs im looking at are
Top speed,beluga,aam short tails,stm brand ? And now i see megans axle back. Do they all give the same sound? And has anyone heard them in person?

Did you try YouTube? Even then that will only give you a perspective.

My friend had Top Speed on his and it sounded decent for what he paid. I also had Top Speed on my G37S Sedan and it was good. Keep in mind that you may have drone on highway speeds.

Zoom370z 05-15-2016 11:58 AM

Yes i heard it does give off done. When you added the top speed does it sound like having no mufflers? I did that once and it was loud. At idle sounds nice and at pushing the trottle it did sound good.

If you are looking for pure sound and to save a few bucks before you get your cbe, I say punch your cats or delete/remove OE muffler.

I have some top speed axlebacks I love the way they sound(deep rumble). I was gonna go cbe later down the road but I think I like the axlebacks enough to pair them up with some mid pipes later on.

Zoom370z 05-15-2016 01:46 PM

Yea thats what i was thinking of doing or if i did a exhaust it would be a motordyne

Zoom370z 05-15-2016 01:58 PM

Hmmm ive read the washer mod i never heard it in videos or person. Is there a video on how to do washer mod? And is it noticeable ?

Check out my build, on pages 4 and 5, I have some video clips of my Top Speed Axle Backs. I love them and see no need to do anything further, the sound is epic and sounds just as good as any of the others that cost double or even triple the price. I had Top Speed test pipes before and they sound like shiit, too raspy, so I added these and put my stock cats back on and haven't looked back since.

I have a Garageline TurboXS Axelback sitting around I would sell for $100. I had it on stock pipes with cut out resonators before I bought the Stillen Catcack. Sounded pretty good . Burnt tips. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...fb03d66f4b.jpg

I ordered the beluga axleback. I receive it tomorrow. I based my decision from YouTube videos. Hoping I made a good choice. Thursday I receive my berk resonated test pipes.

Zoom370z 05-18-2016 12:00 AM

Well someone on this form will buy it to try it if you are not happy.

I couldn't agree more... picked up a Top Speed axelback from a forum member last month... I freaking love this thing! I was simply looking for more/better sound and this delivered in spades. Very deep at startup/idle and wicked aggressive when you step on it!

I listened to tons of video clips... none come close to truly conveying how much louder these are.

Now if only there were axel backs for the 15 nismos to help me last until I can afford a full cbe that would be great. Looks awesome though!

Just put the Top Speeds on my 15 Nismo... Fitment was spot on! Tips sit pretty much where the stock ones did

Will these work on a 2015 non nismo model?

I would think it wouldn't be an issue. The nismo sticks out a bit more than the non afaik, but actual fitment to the hangers is the same.

From what I remember when i was researching, it seems that the tips will stick out about 1.5" further on a non-nismo bumper. (I know there are some threads about it somewhere on here) But I also thought I read somewhere that Top Speed was making a version for the non-nismo models now. I could be making that up tho :icon14:

I'm about to get a Beluga axle back which apparently is the clone of the top speed. I got some input on the facebook page and people say it's good some others say it's bad. Do you guys still like it?

I've been running mine for about 3 weeks and I love it. I'm not going to say its the most amazing sounding exhaust out there, but for the $$ it's pretty effing amazing.

It gets a little bit raspy at higher rpms when you stomp on it but it's still got a nice tone. (I'll add that I think part of my issue is that I'm getting a wicked vibration/rattle somewhere in the hatch at around 4K rpm with heavy accel... which adds to that raspy aspect. :shakes head: Once I get that tracked down I think I'll be completely content) At idle and lower rpms its pretty deep sounding.

As far as loudness... I'll say that its on the high-end of what i can tolerate on a daily basis... just a step down from a AAM shorty/delete really.

Eventually I will get a FI full cat-back but until then, this is perfect.

Zoom370z 05-19-2016 08:07 PM

Wow they do look nice on a nismo. But i also was reading about the top speed and beluga tips do stick out on the non nismos. I dont know if this is true?

Beluga, J2 and Topspeed are all the same thing, all made by the same manufacturer in Taiwan, just branded with different names.
