kitch79 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Whifbitz. I did find a couple of cheaper places, but one I was warned against as delivery time was shocking, the other wasn't much cheaper but I knew whifbitz so went with past experience and went with them.

Paul Whiffin Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Blitz have no stock until middle of August I'm afraid, I have plenty of our own Whifbitz 3" single box exhausts in stock though, no problem with ground clearance on these....

rider Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Where is the best place to order one from based on price and stock availability. I plan to do the swap over next week. £600 to £650 is a lot to pay for an exhaust and more expensive than getting a bespoke exhaust made to your own desire for noise/performance. My Supra entered the UK with a Blitz exhaust which was great but must have been a mild steel variety as it rotted away. Having gone through a standard exhaust stage I missed the Blitz rumble so replaced the Toyota exhaust with a bespoke stainless one 7 years ago, it has the grunt of the faded Blitz and is only missing a removable/adjustable baffle. Is that really worth an extra £450? The company I used way back when is still trading so must be doing something right. http://www.mijexhaust.com/toyota-exhaust-system-stainless-steel-exhaust.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mac79 Posted July 17, 2014 Author Share Posted July 17, 2014 Free fitting for an exhaust.... Thats great, when you have them back in stock i will come down to get it fitted, it will be nice to see the new workshop plus the better half has friends in bristol so i can drop her there and that will keep her happy.

rider Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I have been down the bespoke route before, I had a blitz on my last one and its the best sounding exhaust on a supra in my opinion. I'd agree, people said they could hear me rumbling up to the pub from almost 2 miles away with the Blitz exhaust. With my more recent bespoke exhaust, people say they can hear me rumbling up to the pub from almost 2 miles away. I notice the difference with the Blitz seeming more responsive to revving with its tone and the bespoke is much louder on overrun. Both sound good, is the difference worth 3 times the price? Probably yes if money is no object. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweet200 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I used to have the nur spec on my 200sx sounds awesome but used to drone at motorway speed, is it the same on the supra? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jord Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Got one of these still waiting to go on, one of the best sounding exhausts in my opinion. I'm hoping I won't have too much issue with it as I'm lowered on coilovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mk4Gaz Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I used to have the nur spec on my 200sx sounds awesome but used to drone at motorway speed, is it the same on the supra? Same as the mr2, God awful drone at motorway cruising. I love the sound of the blitz on a supra, but I've never experienced the sound in the cabin, or cruising, to know if I want to buy one for mine!

mac79 Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 I never thought it was not to bad in cabin plus i never had the baffle in either. Worse one i have had on a car was my mr2 a few years ago that had a japspeed when i picked it up. I had to drive back from milton keynes to wolves, on the motorway i me and my mate were having to shout at each other. That was changed within the week!

mattdavies Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 My Blitz Nur Spec R drones a little more at 90 on the motorway, but nothing major. With the baffle in it is very quiet at motorway cruising Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrboomberang Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 If I knew beforehand about the blitz being so low I would have went for the whifbitz 3" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
