New Kakimoto Racing Exhaust Systems
 

Just read that Kakimoto Racing has put out two new exhaust systems for the X. A single system and a duel. Thought I'd post it up for everyone to check out!

Hmm, not feeling the big fart can style muffler. I like the straight pipe/muffler delete look. I figure I'll get less attention from ricers and po-po.

Any audio clips or translated price?

Ill be sticking to the more stealth and factory looking stuff with this car. Those would just invite attention from the police IMO.

We may have found my exhaust - can't read Japanese, is it Ti on the single??

the single tip looks good but the dual looks stupid. Reminds me of the V6 Tiburons I see running around san antonio.

looks nice but judging by the build it's going to sound farty!

I seem to remember reading that it's in the ~$950 range so I don't believe it is titanium at that price.

Good looking single, but that dual I just dont like..

It really depends which way you're going to go with the car. I personally think it looks good and think it would sound a lot better than some of the ones I've heard so far. I would definitely put this on the X if it were the garage queen and not the daily.

Not really feeling it...

Between the two, the single exit exhaust looks good appearence wise.

need more pics of the dual, looks kinda crooked in that pic :lol: {thumbup}

Looks farty to me.

im guessing thats the 06 regu r which is the same as what i have on my car (evo 9)
its just a ti tip on a stainless exhaust

no way in hell it will sound farty though, its one of the best sounding exhausts ive ever heard. also one of the quietest

I had a Kakimoto on my Skyline and it was considerably quieter than most others I looked at. I've done several 9 hour drives in the car and my ears really appreciated it afterwards. We used to joke how truely JDM it was as it said "Genuine Racing Produce" on the label...

The single large muffler is to much rice for me.

Exhaust rocks!

Just went to get the kakimoto installed over the weekend! more pics to follow! limited by 5 only! Sound is quiet on idle, but on wot, sounds like an external wastegate! internal pipe diameter is 2.91", my mate put in a trust exhaust on the same day his car is more boomy at idle, trust is 2.71" piping. piping dia measure by vernier calipers, could be slightly off, but gives all an idea!

Kaki installed!

Some pics we took the next day, both exhaust are nice, but 2 totally different looks and sounds! Trust is aural and throaty all the time, Kaki makes heaps of noise after 3500rpm!

Is the sound at idle really a big difference between the trust and kaki? I believe the Kaki is louder than the Trust at higher rpm?

post some sound clips of both {thumbup}

Very nice need some sound clips {thumbup}

Karam, can you post pics from directly behind the car on both exhausts? {thumbup}

I heard that the kakimoto tapers down where it meets the cat. Is this true or is it truly 2.91 inches all the way through?

Hey mate, only pics i have from the rear.... Jun is more straight on, kaki pipes are angled a lil more!:mitsu: {thumbup}

Kaki is opening up more, but trust is more boomy at idle still! like a wrx! hehe
Kaki is way louder at wot tho!
its very dramatic, at 3500 when boost hits, it sounds like a hurricane! haha
whereas the trust is always audiable!
i dont know how i'm going to get soundclips as im shifting house and have packed my video camera away...

the entire centre pipe is 2.91 inch, it tapers down where the pipe splits into two, didnt measure this, but think is 60mm on the website, and same as trust when that tapers!

designs are so similar, kaki sits lower to the ground and has smaller rear canisters, but larger centre canister. piping wise, centre is 2.91 for kaki and 2.71 for trust, rear piping same dia! my friend is building for torque, im building for outright power!

where i can get trust exhaust?

Hey Karam,

I'm one of them Kakimoto owners in SG. :) How's the exhaust shaping up for you so far? BTW, is the black X lowered?

Haven't heard of Kakimoto since late 90s.

Black X is gorgeous, I think im in love

i want the trust exhaust!!!! can you tell me how to get it?
