Default Fujitsubo Exhaust on an ISF?

Is anyone running a Fujitsubo exhaust? I'm looking at possibly picking up this exhaust and wanted to hear how it sounds. I saw it on an ISF (http://www.importtuner.com/features/...f/viewall.html) and found out that its actually a IS350 setup modified for the ISF so pretty much a one off. I'm basically having a hard time finding how the exhaust sounds. If anyone has it can you post a clip up of how it sounds.

In before 20 replies of "Just get JoeZ like the rest of us, why be different"

Let us know if you pull the trigger, I applaud anyone who goes outside the box to see what else works.


(Not saying JoeZ is bad, I just like to see unique setups. Hence, why I am not in a new M3)

I would like to hear the sound of this exhaust as well.

I was looking at VIP Auto Salon's new online store and omg... I believe they have most of the IS-F exhaust available on the market. You might want to check out their website. I thought there were only about 5 different kinds, but there is a lot more. Of course, there are only a handful of exhausts around ~2k.

You can check them out here: http://vipautosalon.com/store/index....use20-1?cat=14



But no sound clips.

Totally agreed. Thanks for the heads up. I just might be able to get this at cost through a connection and can most likely find out what modification Tein did to make the system fit and bolt up to the ISF. I definitely want to be unique.

Thanks for the link Shadow. All I have to say is wow... those exhaust systems are pretty pricey lol. I'm going to need to save up for a rainy day for those things. Just hope that I don't have issues when that day comes when I get the exhaust such as popping cels and error codes. What someone needs to do is create a thread members putting up clips of how their exhaust sounds and whatnots. I know some of the motorcycle exhaust manufacturers like Jardine actually do that so that you know what you are exactly getting.

Sad to know this awesome build ended up going to the crusher not too long ago....

This IS-F was a pre-production unit used for the special projects built for Lexus / SEMA 2008

Most pre-production / prototype cars that enter the US, come with a valid expiration date.

Darbs, with the sikky headers, is it possible to weld in an aftermarket cat for the Greddy Ti exhaust?

I know you didn't ask me...

It is very possible... But you would have to weld in Ti and I sure hope they would be Ti CATs..

Yes they do exist..

Yes they are silly expensive.

NOOOOOOOOO! Hahaha no worries. My girlfriend who's in the car industry is going to hit up Tein tomorrow and see if they might have yanked the exhaust off and did anything with it. Worst comes to worst they can always give us the info to one off another one for the car if I choose to go that route. The sad thing besides the production car being crushed is that Tein is not going to be distributing Fujitsubo to the US going forward I believe so yeah it's goiing to be hard to find their exhausts on the market.
