**Pictures/Videos** My New HKS Exhaust

I'd like to thank Importdps on the great deal on the HKS, and wheelsboutique down here in Miami for the install. I'm extremely happy with the new exhaust, it looks and sounds great. It doesn't sound ricey at all, actually kept the stock sound but made it louder and deeper. When cruising it really is not loud at all, which is good because I can control when I want it to be really loud. With the windows up and keeping the car at lower RPM's, it really does not sound different then stock. However when you get on it with the windows down, the car just sounds sick. I think I'm pretty much done modifying the car for now, so far the mods include-
-Stock 19" sport wheels painted gloss black w/ red pinstripe
-factory rear spoiler
-lowered on Eibach springs
-Front grill and emblem painted gloss black
-Stillen front splitter
-15% tints
-debadged rear with "g37" painted black and "s" left in red
-Side/bottom of taillights painted black
-Valentine 1 Radar detector
-And of course, HKS exhaust







Excuse the noise in the background, there's parrots all over my neighborhood and they don't shut up lol

WOW... one of my favorite G coupes that I have ever seen.

Amazing pictures, and the exhaust sound is nice.

Like the debadged look.(debadged my sedan, but I left the infiniti symbol).
rims and grill are awesome also!

Oh, and for some reason, just by looking at the pictures, i had a feeling you were in Florida, not sure why, haha.

But again, awesome pictures and videos!

haha, I actually saw the license plate after. just skimming through the photos and videos, I just had an idea, than I looked at his location under the username, and saw he was indeed in florida.

I do like though. Grill and rims just look so nice on BO coupe

Lovely setup, love the sound of that HKS exhaust too.. Does it drone cruising around 2k rpm?

Thanks for the compliments everyone.

Yup, they are painted. The entire wheels were painted red, and then the stripes were taped off and the rest was painted black. However another alternative is just to buy pin-striping tape, I did it on my dads gt3 and it looks great.

A TINY bit, but it really isn't any big deal. No noticeably annoying drone.

Was only curious to know to be honest, as some members have been claiming that the HKS does not drone what so ever. Thanks for your input.

Mean sounding nevertheless
