dil Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 Guys I need your techy assistance, I wanna buy an exhaust, i've got the money to buy an exhaust, only one problem (well actually more than 1) 1. I've got an NA 2. They dont do the nurspec r for the NA 3. I'm a fussy bugger and i look the look of it over the hiper muffler 4. Went to top gear, guy said he could do me a dragon fire cat back system (that looks like a nur spec back box) that would face straight out, rather than at an angle with no silencer for £450 :)or £500 with a small silencer Justins doing me good deal on a hiper, but i realy luv the look of the nur, i need to make a decision on one or the other by wednesday, b 4 i go insane. My options 1. Get the draon fire system from top gear, but i question the quality of the back box and what it will sound like, but it will look good & will sound better than standard anyhow 2. Get the nurspec R rear box on its own, and see if top gear can make me cat back pipe, should sound awesome 3. buy the nur spec R complete cat back system for the supra TT and ask them to fabricate it on 4. go for the hiper and save my self alot of hassel Questions 1. option 1 & 2 afforadble, option 2 & 3 other than cost of the system or back box can anyone guess a price for the work involved 2. will i lose performance through option 3? as its not designed for the NA all opinions greatly apprectiated as my brains failing quickly cheers Dil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam W Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 Option 2 will be much easier than option 3 I reckon. It'll only take em an hour to bend up a bit of pipe to join the backbox to the cat, they could spend ages messing about with an existing bit to try and make it fit. A word of caution though - I had some exhaust work done by Top Gear in St Albans, and I was so excited about starting the car up and hearing it, I didn't think to check their workmanship. I found some nasty bubblegum weld and a badly re-bent bit of pipe when I got home If it was me, I'd go for the Hiper. They sound excellent.

Terminator Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 Just ever so slightly biased, but the Hiper, is an awesome pipe sounds and looks good. But if want a volume control then go for the Blitz. I have heard the two side by side and the Hiper has it every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 I had to delete the pic in my post above as it was far too big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dil Posted June 3, 2002 Author Share Posted June 3, 2002 I know i'm being really picky, but i'm putting visual perfection over oral pleasure (is that the right term), I think i'll probably go for option 2, Adam can you recommend somewhere else other than Top Gear to do the bendy pipe work, if you're not too happy with the quality? cheers guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dil Posted June 3, 2002 Author Share Posted June 3, 2002 T, is that a hyper on your car, it doesnt look so bad on there, i've seen some which are angled so far to the left of the car, that it just spoils the beutiful lines of the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 dil, you are correct. I have a few more images if you would like to see them. Personally I think some of the other pipes look too big. The hiper sits well in the bumper cutaway. Fitted it my self to get the perfect fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flipfinger Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 The Hiper on an NA sounds AWESOME.....even better than on a TT. I would DEFINITELY go for that.....even with cats in, it sounds the business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dil Posted June 4, 2002 Author Share Posted June 4, 2002 O.k. i'm getting hyper about getting a hiper but is it difficult to fit on your own? & has anyone heard or seen an apexi N-1 exhaust? similar looks to the hiper, but not really heard the name being tossed about in here any reasons why? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam W Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 For quality custom exhaust work, you can't go wrong with Hayward and Scott. My mate has just had one made up for his GT40 and the quality is sensational - it makes the Blitz and HKS stuff look agricultural! Expensve though, and I'm not sure where they're based. Apexi N1 are popular in the states but I know nothing else about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 Hayward and Scott are very good I agree My mate got them to make a custom system for his scooby as the one he had fitted was too loud for track They fitted an insane back box to quiet things down a little. They are based in essex just off the m25 junction 29. They have a map on there website. http://www.haywardandscott.co.uk/map.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam W Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 That wasn't the black Scooby, parked in front of the car park on the grass at Bolney was it? That H&S (he had the stickers) system was quite fruity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
