Someone was once selling a Fujitsubo exhaust on here (i searched the forum) and that looked descent and nice… It was used and still quite pricey… It had a single large tip, but the way it looked, it looked very sleek and elegant, discrete, it looked fine… I think…
Just thought I’d hear what people have to say on the subject.
No offense intended to those who do have them, but I find these baby eater tips anoying, unappealing and useless… A trend that should die and that I’ve always personally associated with either boy racer honda civics which usually just have a muffler stuck on the stock exhaust or actual heavily modified turbo cars (such as MK4 supras) who have a full exhaust for their application and to whom the tips do fit and embody a sort of muscle car feel to…
On the 240sx on the other hand… to me… it just does not fit… it is overkill… at least on an s13… on some s14 it looked okay, it looked fine… Might as well take a truck exhaust tip and stick that on…
I am after sleeper looks for sure… From all the pics I’ve seen of aftermarket exhausts on S13 240SXs, they just don’t look right… and are definetely cop magnets/attention seekers, overkill… and so on.
My goal with my car that I’m building is to have a sleeper car. Everyone’s car reflects what they want or what they are or what htey like or whatever… everyone has different tastes. Everyone has differnet goals with their car. When it comes to appearance, I want to have it clean and good looking; elagant and discrete… Finesse… If there was a car I would look up to it would be an NSX (don’t laugh… but think about it)… as opposed to say… a boy racer’s imitation civic spoon race car…
The trend for the last couple of years has been huge muffler tips… I don’t like that… and it’s over done and over kill and immediately associated with street racing, wrecklessness and so on, by both authorities, friends, family and civilians in danger on the road lol.
I really have come to hate these huge tip exhausts… I sometimes ask myself, are all of these huge muffler tip exhausts performance or just looks? It seems as soon as someone sticks a huge tip it automatically is a performance exhaust and the bling bling must have.
