Adriank Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 As a few of you know, i had a nasty case of holed Y-pipe and have been driving around with it blowing badly for the last week or so... Well today its sorted! I bit the bullet and bought a new exhaust system including the y-pipe. Buddy Club Pro Spec, a few pics can be found below. A video was taken of it running afterwards, but i need to get the link off the guy that took it! Here it is as it was fitted by myself! Got it for a total bargain from TGM Sports, less than retail, and i used his ramp/tools to fit it FOC. Quality of the exhaust for the price was AMAZING, best fitment i have ever seen, all gaskets and bolts and a nice sticker, very happy. Link to the vid, only a standing rev atm (i wasnt doing the revving!) Will get a drive by when i can. I will get some on car pics next time the weather is ok, and put up a link the the video once i have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adriank Posted April 14, 2009 Author Share Posted April 14, 2009 And the sound? Well its LOUD. Sounds very warbly like the nismo / 5Zigens, but a whole lot louder. Its extremely loud without bungs. Oh in the vid we had it popping flames aswell! Oh better add, the 5Zigen Miracle Fireball y-back exhaust that was on the car is for sale, and available for collection from TGM. Pics available on request. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BulletMagnet Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Nice one Adrian, don't forget to update your sig. Just for anybody that is wondering, Adrian hasn't even had the 5Zigen Exhaust on his car for like 3 months yet, so it's virtually brand new. For some reason I can see Adrian changing his zorst again within the next couple of months, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M350ZB Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 How much you looking for ya old zorst then bud out of intrest >? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriank Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 Im going to stick up a for sale post for it with a few pics for around £500 and see what happens. 5Zigens are expensive new, and my old one is rarer than the others :-) Would suit someone with a std y pipe who wants a nice sound but to keep the backpressure and torque at a more standard level, with the looks of the 2 cans.

wizard Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I really want to hear the sound of this Adrian... Can't believe you got it before me!? We were supposed to go in together!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerry3167 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 How does the the price of the Miracle Fireball compare with the A-spec Pro-racer? Are the sounds similar? Good luck with the sale!! Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spen Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 This isn't it is it ? If it is, I must say it sounds awesome I've been looking at the buddyclubs for a while but can never seem to find any info and certainly hardly any videos. I think originally there was only the one video on youtube of a guy tracking his Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriank Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 That is it, nice one mate! Have to say i think it sounds a lot better when moving under load :-) Your more than welcome to have a look / listen to mine sometime if your local or going to wales, and i will try and get some decent drive by videos when its dry next.

BulletMagnet Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I kept expecting buckets of popcorn to shoot out the pipes with the amount of popping going on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spen Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I was going to ask that, I get the impression from this video that the Buddyclub is a little more civilised than the K1??? or it could just be because the K1 sounds a little higher pitched?

Yeah it is and I'm always disappointed that when I go running round the back that there isn't a mountain of popcorn.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think it is! I heard a K1 in wales last year, and to me the buddy seems noticably louder. Will be interesting to see with them together what the difference actualy is.

Spen Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Ah fair enough, so in the vid of yours is that with the bungs in or out? I'll eagerly await your drive by vid's aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriank Posted April 17, 2009 Author Share Posted April 17, 2009 Bungs out, i dont use bungs they are for girls The camera doesnt do the volume/sound justice at all, but they never do. It was ear splittingly loud in that location in the flesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
