What exhaust do I have?

Bought this from my friend for $25, looks kind of like an older style Racing Beat cat-back, but I've also seen an exhaust that looks kind of like it referred to as an HKS exhaust... I'll take some better pics tomorrow in the daylight.



Thanks for any help.

When I first saw them I was almost positive it was RB, but the 3rd pic in this blog made me wonder: http://infini-fc3s.cyberosity.com/bl...S-CatBack.html. There's no markings on the mufflers or Y-pipe, and I couldn't find anything on google about an HKS FC exhaust that looks like that. Possibly an error by the author of the blog?

Ok, I looked at the HKS one again and they are different, RB it is. Heh, I scored a good condition RB cat-back for $25
If only the ******* car ran.

I thought RB usually labeled their exhaust somehow though. Maybe send the pics to RB and ask them.

Yeah it's kind of weird that there's nothing on it. I'll look harder and see if I can find a small stamp on any of the pipes. Maybe its a knockoff or something. Either way, I only paid $25 and it looks and sounds better than stock .

No doubt, either way it looks like you win. It'd still be nice to know, just so you can say it is what it is
