Hey guys I was just over at this local speed shop ordering some stuff when this guy came up to me and asked if I was interested in a full titanium exhaust called JIC or something.

I said I've never heard of it, he says he'll sell it to me for $600, which is used I'm assuming. I went online and looked it up and a new one costs about a grand.

Does anyone have this exhaust and would it be worth the $600?

Thanks.

Dan.

 

No, buy my N1 or N1 Dual. =)

 

We have the titanium in stock. You can come by and check it out.

LAter, Rishie

 

The full titanium has titanium piping and retails for $1,100 and I doubt you can get it less than $900 new. It also has the flamed tip.

The do sell another model which is a titanium can but has stainless steel piping and that retails for about $850, so it's possible they were selling you that one.

 

The JIC stuff is nice.
The titanium exhaust is quite a piece of work. It's very light, you have to have it in your hands before you can truly appreciate it.

I believe that they only have the large pipe type of exhaust for the FD (no dual).

Go check it out. I think you'll like it.

 

any pics?

 

Well I just found out that my JIC bullet is actually the JIC Bullet type 1. It's NOT the titanium, but it IS the best sounding...WAY better than the apexi units... ...not that the apexi units sound good or anything...

 

Yup, yours looks mor like the Apexi GT and the new JIC's look like the N1's. Even the hangers and brackets are titanium.

 

Does the exhaust have any nice gains in any of the ranges?

I don't want one that's loud that might lead to any pull overs or tickets.

SOmething that's deep and mean sounding is good.

THanks.

Dan.

 

bump i'm interested in this exhaust too i want the same thing evilpenevil does.

 

I saw the JIC dealer selling one at SS5 for ~$850. He says it's all Ti and it's light. The price sounded too low for me so it could be partially Ti. It looks nice and very nice but I don't know how it sounds. If they made a dual and it's all Ti and sounds good, I would buy it for sure.

 

Yeah it is. I just got my JIC strut bar a month ago and it looks sweet. Works like a charm too. They have high quality stuff.

 

I haven't heard it unfortunately but i've seen it in person at Zeil Motorsports. It's beautiful and as light as a cell phone, well ok maybe a cordless phone. The pipng is a seperate peice as well as the hanger.

GMonson: Border Racing makes 3.14" and 4" stainless steel exhast as well as 4" titanium and you can get it from iether jt-imports or Corksport.

Another beauatiful work of art exhast is the Buddy Club Spec III for takakaira.

Again, I haven't heard them, just seen them. At the moment I don't know the DB's but Canman or Jspecracer might.

 

Someone post up pics of the Border if they have any.

 

Border Full Exhaust






Border Catback

 

canman? jspec? you guys have any feedback on sound?

 

BicuspiD, those McCullough HIDs, is that a whole kit, or just bulbs er what? and those border exhausts look schweeeeeeet

 

BicuspiD: Thanks for the pics!@

 

how much does that border exhaust cost ? either full or just cb

 

No prob on the pics guys, if I can find em Ill gladly post them.

The McCullough HIDS I have are just the H4 Style bulb in the stock housings. I like 'em a lot, but then again almost ANYTHING is better than stock. The beam pattern isnt the greatest, but the illumination improved easily by 5x.. The install was tricky, cause theres not a lot of room under there, then you have to make sure they have clearance for the flip-up headlights..


pricing for the Border pieces

Full Exhaust - $1495

Cat back - $895

 

That Border full exhaust system looks amazing. DOes anyone have pics of the JIC exhaust installed or pics of them?

Thank.

Gordon,

I have an Mpeg of my car at idle and WOT with a straight thru midpipe....sounds pretty good IMO...but it doesn't give it any justice. I can make another one with a Borla XR-1 in place of the straight thru(since that's what I'm using now). Fairly quiet at idle but under WOT, it gets LOUD.

Seriously, the JIC used to be Dragon's old muffler. He's gone thru about the same amount of Exhaust systems I have(Apexi, HKS, Blitz, Greddy just to name a few)...and he agrees as well that it is the best sounding exhaust for any rotary.

It's best described as V8 throaty...yet still keeps it's rotary style...very hard to describe, but EVERYONE I've talked to said the JIC sounds best.

 

Somewhere on this forum is my FD's rear end with the JIC....Let me search!

 

Hope these help....yes, the car will be repainted to get rid of the mark of the midpipe

 

Looks like it doesn't stick out far enough JSpecRacer7. You can clean that black sut off with some Meguiers paint cleaner.
