Some guy wants to sell me his stock Type R exhaust from his '01 for $200. It's the whole cat-back. It's in perfect condition, doesn't even look like it was ever used. Let me know what you guys think..

 

Too much. I say $150 sounds better.

The stock type r supposedly flows better but you'll barely notice any difference or any at all.

 

id say see if u can negotiate with him, but i don't think its all that bad of a deal... but i'm not sure what the used market value is of those. Is that picked up price? or shipped?

 

He's actually gonna drop it off to me.

 

would the type r exhaust be louder than stock. i dont understand why woundnt u just buy an aftermarket cat-back

 

A lot of people like the ITR exhaust because it is a step up from the stock exhausts on GSR/LS's since it's a 2.25" (minus the bottleneck) like most aftermarket exhausts, except for the fact that it's considerably cheaper. As for sound, it's slighter louder than a stock GSR/LS exhaust but much quieter than aftermarkets.

As for price, the usual price I see them go for is between $200-$250 for the full catback.

 

Ima try to get him to go for $150. How can you tell if the exhaust is a legit type r exhaust though? Is there anything that gives it away?

 

The piping is mandrel bent on the type r exhaust. That means that it has the same diameter throughout all the bends. If it is not mandrel bent you can see how the piping gets smaller throughout the bends.

 

yea i got $250 for mine when i sold it.

 

It's a good price.

 

Coo..got him to go down to $150..right on guys
