Who's got an Apexi N1 or Blitz Nur spec exhaust? Pics needed :)

[SS8_Gohan]

Hey y'all

bought myself a BATMBL 3" front/dump pipe and 3" Hi-flow CAT, so now i need a 3" CATBACK exhaust to complete the system

Looking at Apexi N1 or Blitz Nur spec exhausts, but can find f*ck all pictures of them on cars, not catalogue type pics. I searched all 20 pages of "apexi" thread titles, and "blitz" thread titles, and found NO pics of either exhausts on a car.

Prefer pics of these exhausts on a R34 but i guess any car/skyline really.

The other thing, does it really matter what 3" catback i get? It's basically a hollow piece of steel? Or is that simplifying things too much?

These 2 seem to sit nice and parallel to the ground and don't stick out from the rear bar (i don't want all that funky angled shit). If anyone else knows other types of exhausts that are similar shapes, i'm all ears.

cheers,

daniel.

Apexi N1 is an angled exhaust (hence the N1 designation).

I recently invested in a Trust Power Extreme II. It is also N1 style but i have found it grows on you, plus in reality the angled ones do flow better because there is not a big 90 degree bend just before the muffler.

I bought it at Advan performance in NSW who are actually a great bunch of guys and stuck the exhaust on while I waited for only $35. Even though it's a direct bolt on - the effort saved by using their hoist to undo the carbon fibre under tray and shit is totally worth $35.

Anyway these guys import trust gear into Australia and would ship it interstate - they always have Trust exhausts in stock too.

Try and get a pic when I get home of the Blitz NUR Spec R... It''s also angled, but its almost a straight pipe design. (For R33 GTSt anyway).

i got the BLITZ exhaust on my 34, i can take some pics of it if u want

Another reason they are angled - a lowered car will scrape the muffler of a straight-out tipped exhaust because the 'departure angle' is too shallow...

If you angle them up they give better ground clearance and the tip is less likely to be destroyed

[sewid]

Plus it's more fashionable in Japan to have an angled tip! You don't want to look silly now do ya? Join the dark side !!!

I have the Apexi N1 Evolution stainless system on my GTR - nice and quiet at idel and while cruising, but nice and angry when it should be

Just a shot taken at a Dynoday. Will get pics of the full exaust later today.

[SS8_Gohan]

thanks for the pics everyone, and yeah, Chris and especially CNBLOW, pics would be awesome!!

I know it would be better to have a straight as pipe possible, but i figure i won't really be able to tell a difference, so i want to go with something that i like the look of (not what the Japanese are doing )

Blitz: it's not exactly straight, but i like the look of your exhaust. Do you mind if i ask how much?

Sewid: i ain't joining no dark side if it means i'm going to be unhappy with the way something looks on my car You got any pics or urs?

cheers guys

AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHA @ the ruler pic!

A little too much parallax error there for me to tell, but it certainly ain't 22.75cm's is it! more like 12'ish

Car looks phat sewid. Does ur exhaust trumpet out a bit??

Hey Brendan, do you have any pics mate??

cheers

[sewid]

haha yeah it's hard to use a ruler to take a good measuremeant of that while taking a photo. But i'd say 12 - 14cm high.

I don't exactly know what you mean but the exhaust doesn't stick out far at all. It ends almost exactly where the stock exhaust ended. Also it's not very loud at idle but when you hit 4 or 5 grand it starts to really growl so its excellent for putting around town and not getting noticed by cops.

[lwells]

sewid: how much did it cost (if you don't mind saying)?

LW.

[SS8_Gohan]

sorry, wasn't very clear. I mean the tip bit, trumpet out, as in, diameter gets wider just for the tip bit? Probably just the angle it was taken on.

Is it much different to an Apexi N1 shape?

[sewid]

The tip does not trumpet at all. It looks pretty much identical to the Apexi N1.

It costs $1065 retail at Advan but yeah you might be able to get some discounts. I paid less than that.

[sewid]

There's a thread on here also where there some guy in Melbourne getting the same exhaust I have for $910. Which is just under what i paid but I dont know the specifics.
