Please JEEZUS don't buy Top Speed... Have a muffler shop custom fab you one if you want to save money, or buy a used complete cat back from the forum for cheap

I just did some research and test fitted that exact exhaust for John at Top Speed. I was very pleased with the results. Install was very easy and lined up really well. I installed on my non-Nismo. Top Speed hadn't test fitted on a non-Nismo, so I was their guinea pig. It has a very nice deep throaty sound. The only suggestion I had for them, was to cut back the tips. At least on a non-Nismo. For me, They are too long. Other than that, it's pretty good quality.

And NO...I don't work for Top Speed. They just gave me a deal (lower price) to test out the exhaust.

While plenty of people have run Topspeed, I wouldn't put Topspeed and "without a problem" together.

Between flanges not lining up, packaging issues, and customer service nightmares, I'd rate Topspeed close to if not at the bottom when it comes to production exhausts on this forum.

Of course, that's just me personally.

edub370 10-30-2012 10:40 AM

maybe i've just missed all the problem threads for top speed

From my personal and first time experience with Top Speed, I couldn't disagree more on every point. I ordered on Wednesday and item was delivered on Friday. John answered all my emails within an hour and the exhaust was well packed. It also lined up perfectly.

But, like every company, I'm sure there have been issues.

edub370 10-30-2012 11:35 AM

can't think of an aftermarket company that hasn't on here...

luigi90210 10-30-2012 03:03 PM

sound clips?

i would like to hear what this sounds like compared to the aam short tails

i was about to buy short tails but now this is swaying my from buying it(i liked the sound of the top speed cbe but when i read about the problems with the x pipe, it turned me off of their product)

NickTurnon 10-30-2012 03:09 PM

I dont know the price of these, but if you can get the entire exhaust for $500. I hope these weren't too expensive!

Are those little mufflers or resonators on the ends?

Post Vid for sound please! :)

370ZNISMO#704 10-30-2012 03:22 PM

Hmmm

NewtoZ's5 10-30-2012 04:07 PM

Top Speed:shakes head: I just wouldn't. There problems exist across the board whether is be on Acurazine, TSXclub, S2Ki and here. I find there products to me more "form" over "function".

obwebpro 10-30-2012 05:01 PM

Thank you everyone for the feedback, I think I will stay away from this exhaust.

RUFFSTUFF 10-31-2012 01:27 PM

Looks like it would be kind of hard to screw up such a minimal exhaust...

chuan.1992 11-09-2012 08:37 PM

Please post some videos.
I have a 2012 nismo and I'm really interested in this axle back exhaust.!!!

Vlamison 11-16-2012 07:30 AM

i installed that exact axle back on my friends nismo. it fits perfect. sounds amazing, honestly i thought it sounded better than mine, i have top speed full exhaust on my sport package z. the reason it sounded better than mine is because his still have the stock y pipe when mine is a x pipe. his was smooth,mellow, same time throaty. mine was too throaty and loud, again because of x pipe. then i bought berk hfc and now my car souuuunds siiick, its mellow and throaty but its a day/night difference with hfc. idk how, but souuunds way better. idk how to post videos. but private msg me ur email and ill send u a video

NickTurnon 11-16-2012 10:32 AM

370z Top speed exhaust and Berk hfc - YouTube here is the link. sorry for taking so long.

carlitos_370z 04-17-2014 12:15 PM

Any difference in horsepower??? I have short tails and i feel less power that with my stock exhaust. Thanks

Malm 04-18-2014 07:49 PM

Ark grip and FI are already proven and have TONS of videos with them.. and they can run used 900-1300 to new 1300-1650 depending on what options you go with (FI has the most bounce in price due to the options available with them)

carlitos_370z 04-21-2014 07:52 AM

Thanks Malm but for now i just want an axle back.... any way when i wana buy a full catback im going to buy the Invidia. love how it looks and sound :) anyway thanks for the recomendations

I have a stock Nismo H mid pipe for sale. I also have short tails and the AAM true 2.5 H mid pipe and I lost a lot of power and torque until I was tuned. Lost 4 hp over my stock baseline. But after tune with only that and GenIII's I pull people with test pipes and full bolt ons and no tune. Just my 2 cents.

carlitos_370z 04-22-2014 06:23 AM

Thanks for the review dude!!! btw your nismo looks fcking awesome!!!

I have short tails and feel no difference in power. Muffler deletes have been shown to dyno a 3hp gain (Muffler deletes and short tails are the same idea).

Do you have any videos? Not many people take videos with this setup..

Also, sexy Nismo.

If someone can feel a 3hp difference, you're trying too hard.:tup:
Muffler deletes are for sound. Adding mid-pipes with free flowing 2.5" piping is what gives the car the big jump in power. When paired with the free flowing 2.5" short tails, its even better

370ZNISMO#704 04-22-2014 10:36 AM

Yeah I have a few on my IG my tag on there is NW_Fairlady_aka_WhiteGurl. But here are the older ones I have on YouTube.

New AAM S-Line MIDPIPE Nismo version - YouTube
