Robboo Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 Is it me or are these new?? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JAPSPEED-NISSAN-350Z-Y-PIPE-BACK-T304-STAINLESS-STEEL-EXHAUST-SYSTEM-K4-/160970341176?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3A350+Z&hash=item257a947b38 Quote
Ekona Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 I got as far as reading the word Japspeed and came to the conclusion it was a piece of crap. 2 Quote

BulletMagnet Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 They have been around for a few months now and are basically cheap HKS replicas. Personally, I would avoid. Quote
Robboo Posted February 5, 2013 Author Posted February 5, 2013 Yes I know alot of peoples opinions on japspeed lol But I really do love the look of the HKS dual, but like heck am I spending that much on an exhaust and have heard the HKS reps on ebay dont fit properly! Then I stumbled across this. My k1 fits fine so surely for £500 for a full exhaust cant be that bad? Quote
Ekona Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 It's still a HKS replica. It's made by Japspeed. What makes you think this will be any good? Quote

No I know, I was referring to the topgear exhausts rep which were apparently made to fit the jap 350z and not the UK spec? If anyone can suggest anywhere that makes them to fit UK spec Zeds then I would go for that 100%! And Im not sure, hence the post really. But it doesnt look that bad? Quote
Ekona Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 That's the trouble, all their stuff looks good in pics. In reality it's poorly made copies of copies, and their customer service is dreadful. Quote
BulletMagnet Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 Bottom line, you get what you pay for. Yes I know I currently run a JapSpeed K2, but I am looking to upgrade to something better as soon as I can afford to. The JapSpeed, in my opinion is overpriced piece of tat, for £500 you could get better I'm sure. Quote
Robboo Posted February 5, 2013 Author Posted February 5, 2013 Okay guys thanks for the advice, Il give it a miss then, passing thought thats all seeing the price etc. Anyone know if anyone makes the HKS rep to fit UK spec zeds then? As I read the ebay ones dont fit properly! Quote
OsakaBen Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 I swear topgear made copy that's fits UK Zeds now, one that avoids the diff cover? May be worth emailing them and checking Quote

Gudzy Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 Your K1 probably fits properly because it was made to fit my car before hand! Quote

You have to have it altered? take a look here fella http://www.350z-uk.c...rt-performance/ quite fancy one myself Nice one for the link matey! Dont blame you, they look awesome! Quote
SteveW Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 That's the one I want too but saving for a house deposit so can't afford toffee this year! Hate having no cash. Steer clear of Japspeed, they don't fit, they don't last (baffles collapse) and the quality isn't great-well that's my opinion anyway. The Y pipes are ok but that's it. Quote

Trust me within a week it will rattle or it wont fit in the first place. Your money though Quote
