I just got my Fujitsubo RM-01A EK9 exhaust on today and just wanted to show some pics and give my $.02. I got the exhaust from SKR Performance in Delran, NJ (the shop with the yellow Top Secret Supra). They seem to be one of the few shops on the east coast with some good JDM accounts. Just to let everyone know they have one RM-01A in stock for the EG hatch.

The exhaust is TOP quality, stainless steel 60.5mm piping. Sound is very good, deeper and quieter then my 5Zigen Fireball. Fitment was excellent but due to my B16a2 with JDM ITR header, my test pipe needed about 6 inches cut off to fit. It may even need another inch or so to get the fit perfect.

Well here is a link and some photos. enjoy!

Damn man that really looks nice. Looks like the tip hits the bumper though, hope it doesn't melt it. I have an EG currently running the N1 catback, looking for something different. Do you know if the piping runs over or under the Rear LCAs on the eg model and how much is it?

Exhaust is tight, your car is sick. My friend just got a set of bronze 5zigen Beckets for his EG, very nice. The piping looks like it's pretty big, 60.5 is how many inches?

Yeah, it does sit a bit high, but I also still need about another inch cut off of my test pipe for the perfect fit. I'm pretty sure it goes over the LCAs. For the EG they have in stock I think he wanted $650 but for any special orders $750.

Jesus Christ that is a beautiful car. Certainly a unique exhaust you have there--big exclusivity points. Wheels are as well.

That's alot for an exhaust. If i can get $350 for my N1 i may look into it.

 

damn you love taking pics of your car outside of my house.. post those pics from out front of the art museum from earlier

 

Thanks, Yeah the piping seems larger then most, 60.5mm is just under 2.5in., larger then my 5Zigen Fireball which claimed 60mm

 

your car is very clean
that exhaust looks very high quality, ss owns.
how much did it set you back?

 

looks nice, the exhaust and your car

are those 5Zigen FN01 rims on your car?

 

Very very nice; I saw that exhaust in Japan - the B-pipe is beautifully finished, plus it is super lightweight

BTW, you should get one of these adjustable rubber hangers; I had the same problem with my Mugen twinloop after bolting on a test pipe.

 

Spikey, thanks, yes they are!

Kengs, thanks that would help, where can I get them?

Believe it or not, I think Pep Boys has them

man that exhuast is ******* sweet!! im looking for an exhuast right now =P

 

thats a beautiful exhaust...i think the tip is perfect looking. nice ride man.

 

That adjustable exhaust hanger will allow you to reposition that tip a little lower

you're gonna melt ur bumper dood... i melted mine and mine had more clearance than you

 

NIce exaust and hatch. SO it is 2.5 cat back mandrel bent? How much?

 

that is a damn nice exhaust. your car looks really nice....

 

WOW that EK looks super-nice
ultra-rare-monsta-points-oooooOOOO-yah!!! and the quality and fit looks excellent!
Yes you better get the tip off of that bumper paint asap, otherwise it will burn the paint, and melt it onto your tip, that sucks, ask me how I know

-->to all who asked, 60.5mm = 2.38 inches
(if you are given mm, then divide that by 25.4 to get inches)

 

Yeah, I'll try to lower the muffler tomorrow. The exhaust cost me $650 installed. Thanks for all the feedback!

 

Not only does it look bad ***, it SOUNDS bad ***!!
