So as most would expect the test pipes are pretty raspy on stock exhaust. To combat this, I have Agency Power's Resonated Y-Pipe on order. It's a similar design to Morotdyne's XYZ pipe so I have high hopes that it will all but make the rasp disappear.
GReddy Supreme SP Dual exhaust is installed! I sounds amazing.
It sounds somewhere between maybe a Tomei and a maybe an Meisterschaft exhaust. I haven't really heard anything like it on here. Cruising around it is very quiet. There is no drone at all. However, at WOT it is very loud. Maybe not straight pipe loud, but definitely loud. BUT it still has that VQ note everyone knows and loves. I will be shooting some video with my DSLR to try to get some sound clips soon. Here is a quick clip.
How do you like the new coils? Thinking of picking up a set.
They are pretty great.
First impression was they seemed to be very high quality; robust feeling in the hands, good looking welds, etc. They were extremely easy to install and adjust. As far as ride quality they are fantastic. They keep the luxury feel, but add just enough stiffness to keep you nice and level through corners at high speeds. I used to have a very weird "floaty" feeling at speeds above 80mph, but now it's solid all the way up to the limiter... err i mean the speed limit.
9/10 would def buy again. I only knock them one point for no adjustable dampening but they are $500 coils. You buy these for value not features.
UPDATE:
Received the Agency power Y-Pipe for the Z33 Chassis rather than the Z34 from VividRacing.com.
I contacted their customer service and they immediately issued an RMA and had me a return shipping label within 24hrs. Service was excellent, I should have the correct part soon.
