Robert Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 im sure the super dragger is mild steel, i had it on my old supra and in the end it will rust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraJames Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 HKS exhausts all have mild steel pipework with stainless back boxes, why I never got one, id go for a full stainless system like the Blitz NUR Spec, will last a lot lot longer. When I was looking at exhausts for mine, went to a garage and they had an HKS and Blitz exhaust on the floor, both been on a Supra for 6 months from new. The HKS looked tatty and rusty while the Blitz still looked almost new..! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraHuman Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I've had my HKS super dragger 2 fitted for 3 years now and not one spec of rust on it.It's just like the day bought it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk-rich Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 they tend to rust from the inside out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 This is total BS, all HKS MKIV Supra exhausts have been fully stainless for years... BTW, I have a mint, but used for an hour or so, HKS Hyper Silenced back box for sale. JUST the back box, no forward section. Offers invited.

Jspec Germany Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I've had my Super Dragger on for three years, one of that and however many years prior that it spent in Okinawa before purchase. No rust. I like the way it looks and sounds. Great performance. If you want to be able to have bragging rights, buy the Nur Spec or any Ti exhaust.

jot_ie Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I have a super dragger on mine. The back Box is fine, still shiney in places even, and the tip is still in perfect condition. But the pipe is riddled with holes. Trying to get it repaired (new section of pipe fitted) rather than buy a whole new one. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveL Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Have had a Dragger for about 4 years - transferrred it from one sup to another as I liked the low profile sound so much. I've now gone single and it sounds awesome. Depends on what driving your doing... I hate the drone some of the other exhausts have - the Dragger is superb on motorways ... I'll be looking for another when mine eventually gives up... or maybe an Apexi N1 Best bet is to see if someone near can take you out... if you are or are going full decat you need to find out what the noise is like...

Stonkin Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I have the HKS super dragger with a full decat and to be honest am looking for something a bit louder. I think it looks great and suits the car well and as others have said it doesnt drone at all. Are you looking to buy new or possibly second hand?

JohnA Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I've had my HKS super dragger 2 fitted for 3 years now and not one spec of rust on it.It's just like the day bought it. Same here. Mine came with various 'performance' tat attached to the car (not hardcore tat but still garbage, irritating since I had to sell them and replace with original items) The dragger2 is the only aftermarket part that I've kept. It's good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveL Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Forgot to mention .... Paul ( Whiffin ) is fitting an Apexi N1 to a friends car today ( hopefully ) so I can compare that to the Dragger if you want.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jspec Germany Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I'd be interested in pics and a sound bite if you can get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 True, I have one But things change and since this is the Tech section, I guess we want the info to be correct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I still think the trust / Greddy ones are now the best if you want a decent,exhaust sound, but also like to know it should pass a track day noise test, and not be retrictive, I am putting one on my well modded Skyline, so i am voting with my own cheque book Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 My super dragger was the one failure I had when I went to the Nurburgring. The rear most hanger (just in front of the back box) tore-out from the pipe. If I wanted the dogs danglies of exhausts, I would go to Haywood and Scott and get one custom made. Would probably still work out cheeper than some of the "off the shelf" systems I see on various traders websites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
