Preach it!!!

I'm curious as to how these would fit with the AAM midpipe. It seems as though they are not going forward with their own muffled axle-back option.

Thanks for the input fellas! Much appreciated. I've read ALOT about this washer mod here on the forums. I am curious as to how it sounds but, am not willing to do it on my own Z. I won't call it "rice" although it is cheap so, I'll simply refer to it as that "cheap"
I LOVED the stock note on my G35 and it still turns my head now when Z33/G35 roll by. I had the ART pipes and the Invidia Gemini on my G35 after ditching the stock set-up.
Sounded AMAZING yet there was still notable drone. I think the Z warrants a more aggressive exhaust not even in stock form. However you go about it.

Why not do a custom axle back?
Pick your tips, pick your mufflers and pay to weld.

I had the washermod on my Z and it sounded amazing. Its loud but not in your face loud. Its almost like the short tail sound but a little quieter.

Honestly its a love it or hate it thing, you really have to try it and hear it in person before you can judge.

True I'll give you that seeing as I haven't heard it in person. Wasn't so much as judging as I am simply skeptical about it...obviously lol

Lmao their TP didn't seem too bad but, I was rather impressed with ART pipes and now I unfortunately compare ALL TPs to ART pipes :/

EDIT: Meaning ART pipes are the Shizz! and not many come close in quality.

Their TPs break. They don't know how to weld worth a damn over at cnt.

if anyone is interested.... i bought the belugas as a temp exhaust till i can save up for a amuse exhaust.... my oem exhaust is rubbing on my amuse rep rear bumper

simota1 · 11-11-2013, 04:01 AM

ill post some pics and reviews of them.... for what its worth... i think these are decent compared to the aam ones which is basically 2 pipes....

Gilianz · 11-11-2013, 05:04 AM

And if you are looking into it I just saw someone post in the FS thread about a AAM Short Tails with Titanium tips for 380. Not sure if you were looking for it exactly but just a heads up there is one used so you don't have to drop that much for one. Hope this helps. And GL with your search for an exhaust! I looked long and hard for mine and am completely satisfied with my exhaust.

Damn simota you are going hard. That exhaust costs waaay too much in my book... Maybe some day though. I really want a single exit exhaust to be honest but 1. it is way too loud and 2. the only choice is Amuse R1000 which costs alot for a single exit exhaust.

jdm all the way brotha

i was actually gonna get a fujitsubo axle back as a temp exhaust but im scared itll rub also....

anyways back to topic....

OP the motordyne exhausts sound real nice

boostlee's sound clips are sex for your ears

Fantastic Z · 11-11-2013, 07:22 PM

Glad to see this is still sparking some interest. I've been doing ALOT of research on exhausts here lately and have found a few I REALLY like. I'm trying to avoid drone as much as possible. As of right now the Motordyne T or E370 is at the top of my list.

Gilianz · 11-11-2013, 07:31 PM

To avoid as much drone as possible. Look for resonated everything. I have FI Res TP and the APEX'i RS Evolution Extreme with 18" Res on them. It is just loud enough when you step on it but there is no drone at highway speeds unless you are around 2k RPM in 6th. There is still the smell of gas because of the TP but other than that I enjoy it. Let me know if you want a clip of the sound... mind you the exhaust itself is fairly expensive for not including a y-pipe... BUT its JDM
