I agree, people should just relax a bit regarding the price, everyone has their own budget and preference, to each his own. If you all think 6K is steep for an exhaust you should check out the $40,000.00 lobster press lol.

different company?

Turner Motorsport | Full Supersprint Sport Exhaust for E63/E64 650Ci

Do you see any headers in that page?

6k is not the final price as it's a prototype anyway.

You might want to do some more research on wheels and why people spend 4k on certain wheels. Not saying all are worth it other than cosmetics, but there are many reasons to spend large amounts of money on good wheels.

Some forged wheels are very espensive because the manifacturing process is costly...

Got enough SuperSprint stickers on that thing? :p

Does look like a well built system.

Paskii 06-17-2011 10:57 AM

The system looks nice, some quality work have been put into it. Are the headers ceramic or stainless? Any drive by videos yet?

Gardus350z 06-17-2011 01:44 PM

The videos are done but they require a bit of work (hide the numberplates, overlay the revs to the car view, fading, cutting etc...) I think you'll have them next week!

About the stickers :rofl2: yes one of the owner of Supersprint is adamant that both the sticker and the plate cover must be on!

We almost risked to run around with the plate cover on the car!!

My friend is a bit worried of all the attention he's attracting when he drives around, he has to disactivate the synchro rev around town...
I have to say the auto-heel&toe with the exhaust is awesome, especially with the windows down, it burbles and pops.
There's no drone in the car but it's definetly louder than stock..very musical and very race car. If it's too loud on the long run they will develop a different center section.

One more think, the final system will have less weldings as the curves were assembled in a few places for the prototype. The production item wil have multiple curved pipe with as few weldings as possibile.

Gardus350z 06-28-2011 05:31 AM

sorry for the delay but I finally have the acceleration video!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpIPYOGQY7A

I can't embed it.

frankster 06-28-2011 07:19 AM

@Gardus350Z: Good exhaust, I like it!
Anyway, even for me as European it's a quite expensive exhaust. Americans do actually not have the resources to pay "global prices" (economy down, depression, debts), so $6000 seems to be a lot of money for the avarge Joe. In the US a 370Z costs ca. $32k, in Europe a 370Z costs €40k - so a US-370Z cost us ca. €23k and a Euro-370Z costs Joe ca. $57k !!!!!

Poor Americans... :-)

cheshirecat 06-28-2011 07:23 AM

Sounds fantastic, but too expensive for my tastes.

Gardus350z 06-28-2011 07:51 AM

I agree frankster, it's not competitive in the US, but I just wanted to share what I think it's a great system. It's there a videos of a similar system with good audio quality? This one was taken with a Sanyo HD camera (in 720p) with a RODE directional microphone attached, on a tripod.

The revving video is coming...there's a bit of metallic raspiness over 6k rpm that you don't hear neither inside or accelerating, dunno why.

Gardus350z 06-28-2011 08:17 AM

Last video, car revving with inside and outside sound:
YouTube - ‪Nissan 370Z Supersprint Full Exhaust - Revving‬‏

frankster 06-28-2011 08:55 AM

For me it sounds great. I do like the nasty "breathing" of some exhausts (I have a Q300 w/ 300 cells cat), so I do like the raspiness.

Btw, I forgot to ask one thing: What about TÜV or E-number for Germany/Europe?

@Gardus: You should update your website with pictures... ;)

Gardus350z 06-28-2011 09:46 AM

There are some pictures on the official Supersprint website:

Catback video, both inside and outside sound with revs:

Gardus350z 10-04-2011 01:48 AM

Hi guys, I've got an update from the company about the final prices and availability.
The system will be on sale on November.

Prices:
4460 $ + shipping and taxes for the full system
1500 $ + shipping and taxes for the catback
1130 $ + shipping and taxes for the rear exhaust

I thought they would be higher...what do you think?

henry0844 10-04-2011 03:13 AM

4k + for that sound?! really?! in my opinion, it doesn't even sound like a vq anymore. just a bunch of noise. and by the way don't feel sorry for us poor americans, we'll be fine:)

Cell 10-04-2011 09:36 AM

4.4k??!?!?!?!? lol.... I am ok, I think I'd rather enjoy 4.4k of steak than to buy this full exhaust system.

Gardus350z 10-05-2011 03:46 AM

Never mind...

Daishi 10-05-2011 06:22 AM

exhaust sounds horrible.. its just rasp and farts lol. btw on this car the crossover joint so far back won't work. the x pipe needs to be as close as possible to the engine for best sound and gains

Gardus350z 10-06-2011 09:49 AM

I guess sound quality is very subjective...I find it very nice, it pops and bangs, and at high revs it sounds like a race car! Some of the japanese systems sounds artificial, too clean, but that's my opinion!

'10Anamoly 10-07-2011 08:01 AM

Looks amazing and I am sure it makes power, but the sound is not good for my tastes. :(

FLYZ 08-07-2012 02:18 PM

~$1,500 for catback is competitive. I'd be interested in learning more about this system. I think it sounds pretty mean.

ANMVQ 08-07-2012 03:06 PM

Is that in USD?? Thats 3/4 of what I paid for my FI kit, UM no thanx.. An sound is EH not deep enough, :/

dastaco 08-07-2012 04:27 PM

I'm beating a dead horse here, but for that price they HAVE to get the weight much lower. Why not build a single exit exhaust system to set the product apart from the vast variety of less expensive exhaust systems?

Honestly, if there are people out there that are dropping 6+k on an exhaust I might sell mine :roflpuke2:

dmhenderson 08-07-2012 07:41 PM

What's killing you here is the exchange rate, not the actual cost.
