So much conflicting info.. some people say it hangs low some people say it has good fitment, i think maybe it just has good fitment but people:

A: Didn't install it good enough/tuck it rite.
B: Different Downpipe/Exhaust Manny/Cat setup gives different results
C:People are giving me S14 Reviews. [which actually shouldn't be much different s14 vs S13 fitment rite?]

I like the HKS, much better response and only loud on high rpm.
here a clip of it on a SR of mine with stock exhaust manifold and cat-delete downpipe to the cat-back

Yeah dude I had both, Greddy got real annoying after a while... I mean the heat treated tip is cool but lacked the mid range torque I was looking for, so I when HKS...HKS got my vote

[ghost_silvia]

Every 240 around here has a HI-Power! So tired of that exhaust. By the way I got Ti-c in for sale thread. Definately looks/sounds nicer.

I don't even like the heated tip but i dnt really care lol. But i don't think i could notice low end - high end torque differences over just an exhaust, i feel like a 3" exhaust, is a 3" exhaust how can there be much difference.

Not looking to buy my exhaust set-up for another 2 weeks, But i think both exhausts sound pretty good its a hard decision but I'm still leaning toward the Greddy. Only other exhaust that might be able to change my mind if someones got a good review on the Apexi N1 since that exhaust would save me $100 over the Greddy.

your right just its a little more low profile on the sound don't wanna bring alot of attention especially cops

I don't know if it's been mentioned, but have you looked into a Buddy Club Spec III ? it has a 4" tip and it sounds really good. I've only had it on a idle then started working on my car. sit's a tad low, but I had old useless rubber hangers and have since upgraded to circuit sports ones.

it's around the same price as a greddy also ( 5-600 depending on the site you go to )

illkraze510: your car int hat vid sounds really good.

I haven't looked into buddy club spec 3, people in this threat mention spec 2, which is really loud, i just tried looking up spec 3 on youtube and could only find it on an S2k and an STI and they both also sound really loud. I also don't really know anything about "buddy club" as a company as i do very reputable companies like Greddy & HKS

Big Zee : Thanks

About the Blitz Nur...would I need to get a down pipe, or can I just get the whole exhaust?

[which isn't really a plus but i don't really care about Loud-ness so whatever] And the Hks has a bigger canister [ which is going to end up being closer to the floor making some driveways a little annoying, And the Tip is also bigger.

Sound is okay, it's of course a lot better behind a turbo than when I had my KA. It's my first (and only) exhaust so far but it's holding up well for over a year now, fitment is pretty tucked and only scrapes if I'm not a little careful going over speedbumps and such on a moderately low S14. I had actually debated between the Ti-C, the Blitz Nur-Spec, and the Apexi Noir because I didn't want something rice can looking, but ended up getting the Ti-C because I got sort of a deal on it. Remember now that GReddy discontinued the Ti-C a couple months ago, and their new model comes with the SS tip. Hopefully this'll enable me to sell my Ti-C in several months for a 200% markup ^_^

Coincidentally, I also have the GReddy downpipe which I heard is discontinued now as well. Paired up with a Circuit Sports test pipe, it came up short so I had to use a 3" flange to fill the gap

HKS all day!

Idk who you told you that discontinued stuff, i haven't seen the Ti-C on any website for sale without a titanium tip. but yeah hopefully it fits good if not i can just get a custom test pipe fabricated.

Vendors still might have leftover inventory, though.

Forgot about Buddy Club Spec 3s, I'd consider it. It has to be quieter than the ver 2 just cuz this one has an actual muffler on it. The real advantage of Buddy Club over all other exhaust is the slip on design. Theres no flange that gets smashed up in the middle.

All exhaust are only Cat-back. Downpipe is before the cat, so they're seperate.

that is why I suggested it. it has a resonator and muffler on it, slip on, solid mounting points and when I compared it to my buddy's 3 inch the mounting points raised the exhaust up on the buddy club

if pics be needed I can get some, I took my exhaust off to work on my car a bit and just haven't put it back on

you gotta paid to play.

i have an hks can welded to an ebay 3inch straight pipe to an ebay 3inch downpipe to the stock manifold on an s14 sr.
it sits high and sounds great, not loud unless you wanna be loud.
i think if money is a factor and you want quality, go with an ebay catback with no resonator and buy your greddy or hks can and get that welded on, i mean there really is no difference in the piping to the can, the quality is in the can

ebay catback shipped = 115 shipped
1989-1994 NISSAN 240SX 240 SX/SE S13 CATBACK EXHAUST MUFFLER CAT BACK 89-94 KA | eBay

ebay downpipe = 60 shipped
Nissan 240SX S13 89 90 91 92 93 94 Turbo T304 Downpipe | eBay

test pipe = 33 shipped
3 INCH TEST PIPE/TURBO CAT S13/S14 KA24DET/SR20DET | eBay

hks 3 inch can = 225 shipped
HKS 75mm INLET MUFFLER WRX STI Civic RX7 240SX Supra | eBay

welding = 20 max

overall price = 453 to your door = lot cheaper

and if you want which you prolly will get this for another 100 shipped

lol i already have an ebay turbo back from the previous owner.. thats why I'm replacing it

[Shift n Drift]

well jack it up, see if its leaking anywhere, if yea change gasket see if it still leaks, if not, just buy only the CAN you want, piping is no different my friend

[2stepGoesPowPow]

i don't think there is a leak, the exhaust just hangs really low in the middle

[Shift n Drift]

heat the pipe up and bend it away from ground, or where it looks like it should be angled up more, cut the pipe through half way with a hacksaw or until you can bend the pipe till the cut closes up, and weld it closed.

low problem solved

and still got doe
