Round mufflers? Like this here with the CF?

Exactly, Fast Intentions now offers coupe mufflers on the sedan for an extra $100, $400 for the CF mufflers. They still use the 4" tips though.

OK, I see it now. Good find on the photo. Can't say as it looks any better or worse on the sedan, just different. However, there is a certain symmetry here between the tips and the cans being straight to one another. And you gets points for uniqueness, so there's that.

Do the round mufflers have a different sound than the ovals?

It was a long time coming (not really), wasn't an easy purchase. But someone offered to buy my Tanabe and I got quite a bit of a discount from the vendor for my FI exhaust, so I hopped on it. The round mufflers are a little bit deeper I believe, my car will sound like the FI coupe exhaust. It's going to be paired with my Berk HFC which are currently installed on the car, hence the 18" resonators to keep rasp/drone at bay.

Non-resonated Berks, 2.5" pipes, 18" Sebring Tuning resonators, and these round mufflers designed for the Coupe...

...I think you're on to something here, Z.

Whatever it is, it's going to be loud. Loud and deep. This will completely change your car (for the better, IMO).

Matches up perfectly too because the Berk HFC have 2.5" piping as well. Definitely going to be an interesting set up. I found a video of the exact setup on a 370Z, I love it, he has the 7AT.

And moving onto another topic - My Philips X-treme Ultinon T20 Amber LED turn signals should be getting delivered for my headlights and JDM tail lights. $43/pair in Japan, crazy bright.

Abolustely LOVE the sound!

but a 7AT in a 370z?

I still prefer a when possible and DEFINITELY on a sports car. Yeah yeah, I know the .10 of a second on a track and so on, but still. Nothing like 3 pedals!

Thanks! I'm ecstatic, it's going to be a long 2+ months while I'm waiting for this exhaust to be built.

The 7AT is nothing to flaunt about either, but I love my car for what it is.

Do you need a resister in the mix for hyper-blinking?

I wouldn't mind replacing my front bulbs. For the rear, I ditched the bulb altogether for the Tail-as-turn module. (Hello, current decade.)

Yup, a resistor is required for these. If you're interested, let me know and I will get you a set out here. I didn't get the tail-as-turn module, because it would defeat the purpose of the JDM tails. I love how the amber looks.
i was told 11 week, but we'll see.

Or you could add the tail-as-turn and still keep the LED amber turn signal bulbs in your JDM tails like I did.
