Wez Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Hey All, Was looking at the following US page and noticed that the stock TT exhaust doesnt have center boxes only the NA, is this the same for jspec TT imports? http://www.mkiv.com/techarticles/exhaust/stock_exhaust/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermonkey Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Pretty sure mine had more than just the back box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Wez, that exhaust I gave you had all three boxes, it was from a UK car. The Jap ones I've seen are the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supraGZaerotop Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Interesting, need to look into that one, how quiet is it. very quiet, as quiet as stock,you can only hear it when you really floor it, ive got auto so when i put the peddle to the floor and the TT comes in its sounds really nice, a head turner but not from the usual loud drone of other cars its more like f##k whats that and everyone looks,very hard to explain, sounds like a quiet rocket,lol. definalty recommend to anyone who wants standard look exhaust and quiet. best of both worlds noise wise.

Wez Posted June 5, 2008 Author Share Posted June 5, 2008 I can only see that exhaust listed for NAs although it would fit a TT as well. What size diameter is the pipework? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supraGZaerotop Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) think its 3inch main pipework, and the backbox is 4.5 but standard look, il take a good few photos of the car soon, so you can have a look, i bought it second hand as new from japan, £250, have looked into uk prices and are around £660, Edited June 5, 2008 by supraGZaerotop (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I'd like something along those lines too ... I'm having a hard time locating a decent, quiet exhaust over here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supraGZaerotop Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) I'd like something along those lines too ... I'm having a hard time locating a decent, quiet exhaust over here... well honestly youl love this exhaust, it exactly what i was looking for and i found it by accident, took a risk in buying it and can confirm its perfect for the supra because youve still got the lovely sound of the inline-six and a very classy noise when you floor it. that guy on here who says BEWARE THE QUIET SUPRA, well thats me with this exhaust now ,lol Edited June 5, 2008 by supraGZaerotop (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted June 5, 2008 Author Share Posted June 5, 2008 The supra isnt even listed on the Blitz website with that exhaust model, a little puzzled now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supraGZaerotop Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Where did you find it matey? It was on ebay, a seller on there that imports quality used parts from japan, it was listed as a blitz tt-r exhaust and it says blitz stamped into the steel on tailpipe so assume its a blitz, and ive looked into the tt and tt-r range and it seems to check out. the tt was stainless back box and mild steel version, and the tt-r was a full stainless version, thats what i have, maybe its a discontinued line that blitz did a few years ago maybe, envy sell the blitz tt but its not down for the supTT.

supraGZaerotop Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) i suppose it is possible its a fake, but i doubt it, it very nice quality steel, my mate who fitted did say that he had to fiddle with it alittle when fitting it, think the driver side pipe ran a little close to the diff or something around there, but i took car for MOT the other week so i could have a look and its looks great. this the listing http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=120175003850&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=002 Edited June 5, 2008 by supraGZaerotop (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Black Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I've seen one of these for sale on EBAY before, it was the exact same image as SupraGZaero posted. And as for the standard exhaust i just replaced mine yesterday & it & the other tt one in the garage both looked like the N/A zorsts in the 1st post, 3 silencers.

bolarbag Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Wouldnt it be a lot cheaper to have one fad'd up? Quiet exhaust means loss of power, theres no way around it, why dont ya just put a high flow cat in a system designed around the stock system or muffler after muffler after muffler:D That stock looking system looks the biz, but it will strangle power, weld a V-band clamp on the section between the dp and split and just use a stock exhaust daily driving, and a 3inch straight through for track 15mins to change with a spanner and a jack;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I have never seen an N/A exhaust with no middle boxes Wes. I have a couple here, and plenty of TT ones. The Blitz one in the photos looks a good system, if you CAN find one it should do the job. Borla in the US make some good none restrictive boxes in various styles, for a one off. I used to use Cadillac Fleetwood back boxes to make things very quiet, they were for a 7 litre engine and are fairly free flowing, with excellent noise absorption. Walkers listed them, but i am going back 10 years or so. Car was circa 1975 model year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colsoop Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I checked the EPC and both the na and TT are shown with silencer boxes along with the us supra too. I was thinking of making a quiet exhaust for track days.
