Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (Comp97GSR)
From the looks of that pic, it looks as if "the guts" would hender exhaust flow....... Is that the N1? I have a sound meter at work but I don't have the dyno ( nor a 220 hp engine for that mather http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsad.gif ) |
Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (JPP)
The N1 is also 70mm right..... comp97gsr who has been wanting a Kakimoto exhaust for almost a year now. http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emwink.gif

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (Comp97GSR)
I was talking to mafay about this before and from what I understand, the "R" is the only 70mm one they have. Maybe the other ones have become available in 70mm now too though. . .

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (743teg)
At the moment, only the Kakimoto-R is 70mm.
The rest: N1, Gt1.0z is 60mm. IMO, full stainless cat back, at resonable pricing, Made by one of the largets exhaust manufacturer in Japn, it is quite a deal. http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsmile.gif |
Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (BPT DC5)
The GT1.0Z is 80mm, not 60mm http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsmile.gif

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (BPT DC5)
Here is what "free-flowing" is suppose to look like...SMSP/Magnaflow Resonator and Exhaust. Nuff said! http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emthup.gif

80mm = ??"

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (BPT DC5)
I am a proud owner of the first GT1.0z exhuast for DC2 I say the exhuast is quite nice and light! everyone LBs counts when have a type-R but yes the exhuast is quite loud but notiveable gains throughout the power band.. pics to come! but over all good price !

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (princeallure)
I use the GT1 titanium and must say it is the highest quality exhaust I have ever had (not to mentio the lightest). Great tone, perfect welds, and very good design. I've always been impressed with kakimoto and the GT1 is excellent. I also had an R setup before that. Awesome quiet street exhaust. Also very well built but I like the power and rumble of the racier GT1 not to mention the light weight.

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (princeallure)
80mm are only for turbo applications..........
60mm for the DC2 pics to follow soon........ the first test subject installed the GT1.0z today and from what he posted above, seems like he is quite happy with it! oh yah, sound file to follow soon too!!!!! |

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (Hybrid ctr)
I just called BPT today and the guy told me that the one for DC2 is 60mm. So the 80mm listed on the website must be for all those non-Honda turbo cars listed below the Honda application.

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (Hybrid ctr)
Ooops.
Looks like the website needs to be updated! gotta say some ppl are more observant than some! heehee http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emwink.gif |
Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (BPT DC5)
- can't watch Kakimoto R DC2 movie in kakimotoracing.com
BPT DC5 I think you put the wrong file link for kakimoto DC2 here is the right link http://www.kakimotoracing.com/_VIDEO...und%20File.avi and wrong one was http://www.kakimotoracing.com/_VIDEO...und%20File.MPG do you have any video clip for DC2 with GT 1.0Z so we can check the sound over the internet?

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (DJHan)
DJ Han.
Yes we do have the pics of the exhaust installed onto the car and also video clips. They are not loaded up yet on host site yet. Will get that done tm. If not, you can visit the store and check it out on the computer. Unfortunately, I am very computer illiterate. Even though I have the files on the computer right now, I don' t know how to post it on H-T. We'll get that sorted out soon! And yes, our IT man messed up on that Kakimoto-R video file, we will sort that out soon too! Anyways, also thanks to Fusion ITR (HT member)to allow us use his video clip on the site! signing off for now! |
Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (BPT DC5)
i know that the kakimoto R is 70 mm which is 2 3/4 inch. How many inches is 60mm? I was going to use the kakimoto R exhaust for my ITR but now im wondering if the GT 1.0Z DC2 would be better.

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (BPT DC5)
- DC2 with GT 1.0Z in your store right now?
if there is I will be there tm ,I need to buy the AEM rubber mount anyway I was goin to B+T today but I couldn't move I went many shops yesterday and got sunburn ,yesterday was HOT sunny day it was mistake ,240 Cobertible wasn't car for yesterday http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emcrook.gif |
Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (DJHan)
DJHan
Yes, the shipment arrived yesterday. And test fitting was already done today. So if you do have time you can drop by tommorrow and we can show you what the exhaust is all about! Yah it has been quite hot lately, luckily it cooled down today. I hope the long weekend is gonna cool down....... Hope to see you soon! (man sounds like I am replying to an email!) The AEM rubber mount... oh yes let us make sure we bring that out from our warehouse tm! |
Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (ITR21)
60mm is around 2.25" I think!!
I really like the new GT1.OZ catback, it is light weight and have a smaller tip. It really a tough choice between the 70mm Kakimoto R and the 60mm GT1.OZ, but it seem like the GT1.OZ was designed to flow very well, as long as one can have a smooth transcation from the cat to the b-pipe. Too bad that GT1.OZ doesn't have an application for my car!! http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsad.gif |
Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (mafay2)
Somebody should compare the Kakimoto R vs. GT1.0Z
on the dyno to see which makes more power. This should determine which flows better http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsmile.gif |
Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (mafay2)
60mm/25.4mm/in = 2.36"

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (SMSP)
In your opinion do B18C's need 70mm exhausts to reach 200 whp, or is a good 60mm good enough.

Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (SMSP)
I think a 60mm exhaust is good enough for most light-mild modified ITR. Unless you are making way over 200whps, I don't think a 2.5" exhaust is that important.
If a 2.5" exhaust is that important for making power on ITR, I would think the Japanese exhaust making companys would come out with some 65mm catback already. Afterall, each company has spent so much money on R&D to try to come up with an exhaust that make more power than other exhausts in the market, if a 5mm differece on piping size and a bit of modification to the flange would do the trick, I am sure they would do that a long time ago. |
Re: Kakimoto Exhaust~? (SMSP)
You sound like Tuan.... http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsmilep.gif who posted pix of one of your exhausts on another web board and I like yours too. Don't you make a 2 3/4" system also?
