sweet

cooltoy 07-11-2014 06:13 PM

Is it just me, but that does not look like FI?

memphisz.exe 07-11-2014 06:15 PM

Think its you...it is used so the packaging is probably diff than what ur used to seeing

cooltoy 07-11-2014 06:33 PM

Probably. It just looks like the cans are fused together, like a Stillen.

Did you get it from a member?

Doesn't look like fast intentions to me either..
The cans, from what I can see, look like they are welded together.. The one I have the cans are completely separate. someone correct me if I am wrong. Anywho, hope you enjoy the exhaust :tup:, I love mine.

yeah, more I look at it.. the 2 cans are fused..and seems to lead to each tip. FI is 2 separate cans.

axmea? 07-11-2014 06:45 PM

That is not Fast Intentions. I see something that resembles a helmholtz resonator and the obvious fused cans. OP, we can help ID it better if you unpack.

FairladyZ10PG 07-11-2014 06:49 PM

definitely not FI
could be invidia, mxp, m-7... but not FI
unless they have a new design that I've not seen

memphisz.exe 07-11-2014 06:56 PM

Got it from my brother in law down in NO. He upgraded to a Ark I think. He said it was FI and I love how it sounded so it doesn't matter to me..tbh

Zbrah 07-11-2014 06:59 PM

Looks like OP bought this exhaust instead and claiming it's an FI Nissan 370Z 2009-2012 Z34 3.7L V6 VQ37VHR LHD Stainless Steel Catback Exhaust System

As long as you enjoy it bro, that's all really matters.

memphisz.exe 07-11-2014 07:03 PM

Thanks km1346. Don't care what brand it is..I got it for a good price..

Your brother must have opened the box, changed his mind and ordered an Ark, this one looks brand spanking new, still have the original plastic and packaging on it;)

Malm 07-11-2014 07:08 PM

well, as long as you are happy. Don't think anyone is attacking you as much as looking out for ya!

FI's are 800+ used to 1650 new in case you ever upgrade.

gluck with it!

Zbrah 07-11-2014 07:16 PM

And I don't think anyone here care what brand exhaust you have on, long as you own a 370Z, we can still be BFF :nutswinger:

Well... That escalated quickly.

cooltoy 07-11-2014 09:19 PM

Ya, that's what I was trying to do - make sure op doesn't get ripped off.

aszyd 07-11-2014 09:22 PM

I'm so conflicted. I would like to say, "if you are happy with the exhaust, go forth and conquer," but I can't. This situation is wrong on a few levels. The seller shouldn't have misrepresented the product, and hopefully didn't charge you a premium because of it. You should do you research and know what you are spending money on.

If I had opened that box, I would have gone through the roof. I may not have a FI exhaust, but I damn sure know what one looks like.

I sell rock crawling and Overlanding equipment for a living, and believe me I understand. I spend a majority of my time trying to convince people to buy the right products for their cars and camping, even if I make less money off of it. I truly believe in buying once and only once as I've learned first hand what happens when you skimp out. With certain products like recovery gear and other such things, saving a little money can result in death.

Hopefully for a wannabe "FI exhaust" price. Just put a decal on it and it will be a FI exhaust. :tup:

G37Sam 07-12-2014 04:58 AM

Nothing beats FI man! Send it back and ask for your money back.. you got scammed!

No...I didn't forget bc I was the one asking fellow Z owners what they thought it...

He didn't get scammed. He knew what it was when he bought it and he was trying to pass it off as FI exhaust thinking we wouldn't notice.

cooltoy 07-12-2014 09:41 AM

Foolish Intentions?

And your point is? I said in earlier post that I got it from my BIL and loved how it sounded when he had it on his Z so it could be an exhaust system from Firestone, I could care less. Thanks for ur opinion though #sarcasm

My point is you started a thread with the intention of misleading others into thinking you purchased FI exhaust. Why? Because you either can't afford FI exhaust or are too cheap to spend the money on it. And that's fine. Either way it's none of my business.

But when you start a thread knowingly trying to pass off a cheap exhaust as something else, then it's our responsibility to expose you as a fraud so that you don't later unload your "FI" exhaust on some unsuspecting forum member later.

There is no shame in buying a product that saves you money. There is PLENTY of shame in buying the same product but trying to make others believe it's something else. You started off on the wrong foot in this forum and it's going to be a cold day in Hades before anyone believes you again.

I wonder what TONY from F.I will think when he sees this thread....

cooltoy 07-12-2014 10:31 AM

It's possible his brother in law mislead him.

His responses in this thread combined with his previous threads prove otherwise.

No BS...I appreciate your input and I have no idea why I'm even explaining to you but my BIL and I were talking about our vehicles and he asked me when I was going to do something to my Z. Told him I was looking at an exhaust to gv me a little rumble and he said he was selling his FI exhaust bc he was upgrading. I liked how his sounded so he said he'd sell it to me. I could really gv 2 $h!ts about the brand bc my Z is a ride for me and the wife bc she hates riding on my bike. It's MY Z and I was just sharing so I could care less who tells who about what...

cooltoy 07-12-2014 11:12 AM

Way out taken. :tup:

As long as we know you weren't screwed, and you know what you have.....

I think we should all be good with that.


Maybe ask the mods to take FI out of the title. WE don't want you to get in trouble with Fast Intentions. You never know, people sue for less now days.

Trips 07-12-2014 11:17 AM

If the Op is HAPPY with it? Thats all that matters WE don't need to make it more than what it is.

Simply wrong info was given and so it has been addressed.




Good Luck Op enjoy :driving:

I wonder what the motive or intent was behind the thread, always curious to know the reason why people do things. It always interests me to hear what the plan was behind everything people do.

a way out was given and taken, no need to pressure the OP anymore on this

Mike Z 07-16-2014 08:11 PM

I think people here was just trying to inform OP that he got scammed by his own brother in law. If I was told I was being sold a FI exhaust and I got a different product, I would be damn pissed, I don't care how cheap I bought it for. I hate liars and I bet that's not the first time his brother in law lied to him.
I mean what if you bought a sound system that was suppose to be of high quality and expensive but instead you got something from a different company and a lot cheaper. It may "sound nice" but you wouldn't be pissed? Haha...
