Also, I think it just slips over the stock tip if I remember correctly. Mazurfer 05-18-2008, 08:26 AM Is it just me or does anyone else think that ANY bolt on exhaust tip on ANY car just makes it look cheap? FeelGuud 05-18-2008, 01:46 PM Is it just me or does anyone else think that ANY bolt on exhaust tip on ANY car just makes it look cheap? sure do, but the tips do look good, i just got some magnaflow slant cut double wall 3.5 tips put on my turboxs exhaust, i like the slant better then the straight now. pdxhak 05-18-2008, 04:56 PM It is one thing to change because you are modding and another to front like you have something you do not. chrism 05-18-2008, 06:23 PM i would consider these because my b&b tips look like crap.....so i would cut those tips off and use the KS......what was the cost of these any one know? snipaz2420 05-18-2008, 07:01 PM http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=139851 http://www.knightsports.co.jp/blog/RX-8-SEP3P/post_11.html The link to Knightsports blog is above for these; titanium, 47,250JPY so: *nearly* $500 *each* We won't put these on our site anytime soon.... GW JapanpartsLLC chrism 05-18-2008, 07:30 PM holy caca.......i would have paid like 250-300 for a set but 1000 is insane Tamas 05-18-2008, 09:40 PM Is it just me or does anyone else think that ANY bolt on exhaust tip on ANY car just makes it look cheap?It's just you :) Seriously, a blanket statement like that doesn't make sense. There are ways to make it look good (certainly helluva lot better than the factory tips) and it can look tacky too, of course. Just have to find the right way to do it. As for these rotor shaped ones, I think that apart from the ripoff price, there is a point when there are just too many rotary thingies on the car... so I wouldn't go this route. Mazurfer 05-18-2008, 09:43 PM For $1K you can get one hell of an entire exhaust. :Eyecrazy: HockeyRX-8 05-18-2008, 09:54 PM $1000 for exhaust tips is ridiculous. nuke0907 05-18-2008, 10:14 PM i want a $1000 exhaust BigRed 05-18-2008, 10:34 PM HKS legamax was close to that :( DOMINION 05-19-2008, 12:27 AM Ok I'm going to say it... Rice... yushinrt 05-19-2008, 12:52 AM it 500 for set not each i just rang them and ask them imput1234 05-19-2008, 01:00 AM it 500 for set not each i just rang them and ask them thats still ridiculous. dillsrotary 05-19-2008, 10:46 AM They're titanium, thats the reason for the high price. Gecko69 05-19-2008, 02:09 PM not only are they too expensive but I think it would be overkill on the rotary theme and would look tacky IMO. yushinrt 05-19-2008, 06:18 PM but it will cool to have, your probley be the only few people that have the tip savedsol 05-19-2008, 10:54 PM Enough said. http://www.pickupspecialties.com/Exhaust_tips/Autotecnica_exhaust_tips/Chevy_1.jpg yushinrt 05-19-2008, 10:57 PM lol that is pretty cool someone need to make mazda shape exhaust tip now lol alz0rz 05-19-2008, 11:17 PM Enough said. http://www.pickupspecialties.com/Exhaust_tips/Autotecnica_exhaust_tips/Chevy_1.jpg some serious airflow issues thur! FeelGuud 05-19-2008, 11:47 PM it actually acts as a venturi and speeds up the air.........:eyetwitch To be named later 05-20-2008, 12:51 AM not only are they too expensive but I think it would be overkill on the rotary theme and would look tacky IMO. Agreed. flip 05-21-2008, 06:53 PM Yuck... i could use the $$ for something else! Detrich 05-21-2008, 08:00 PM does anyone have pix of the rotary exhaust installed on our car? yushinrt 05-21-2008, 08:03 PM http://carview-img02.bmcdn.jp/carlife/images/UserCarPat/1386350/p1.jpg Conundrum 05-24-2008, 09:32 AM Nice... Wonder how hard it is to make the tip... I'll see if any one can make the tip for me... probably end up looking like the chevy one:lol2: kride 05-25-2008, 10:18 AM Post a distant picture yushin. kride 05-25-2008, 10:34 AM Here are some I found in another thread, assuming they are the same tips. http://carview-img02.bmcdn.jp/carlife/images/UserCarPhoto/752591/p4.jpg http://carview-img01.bmcdn.jp/carlife/images/UserDiary/7369617/P1.jpg http://carview-img01.bmcdn.jp/carlife/images/UserDiary/7459603/P1.jpg Im_DANomite 05-25-2008, 11:53 AM a bit of overkill on the rotary theme. as if the RX8 doesn't have enough rotaries incorporated into the design... XLR83N 05-25-2008, 03:26 PM looks stupid with the stock tips inside it, would need to chop them off and weld these on yushinrt 05-25-2008, 06:40 PM yea it will be better if they chop off the factory tip mysql 05-25-2008, 07:10 PM i wouldn't bother. Ti tips get f--ked up due to the heat. At least they do on my car. HockeyRX-8 05-25-2008, 09:05 PM Overkill.... c41250n 05-25-2008, 09:55 PM $1000.......?? is it the whole exhaust or just the tip!? HockeyRX-8 05-25-2008, 10:36 PM $1000.......?? is it the whole exhaust or just the tip!? Just the tips. klepto 05-28-2008, 09:59 AM those are nice tips....$500 is a bit much. Had they been $200ish that would've been more justifiable but then again the high price will just make them more exclusive dur to the fact people don't want to shellout $500 for tips. The pieces themselves look really nice and well made. But I have to ask are those screw ons or weld ons? Im assuming even if they are screw ons they can be welded on. Kudus to who ever got them as of right now you are probably the only one or one of the very few that got them on. But please take some more pix like to get better views of it....those are deffinately beautiful. yushinrt 05-30-2008, 05:36 PM http://carview-img02.bmcdn.jp/carlife/images/UserCarNote/456663/p5.jpg http://carview-img02.bmcdn.jp/carlife/images/UserCarNote/456663/p7.jpg http://carview-img02.bmcdn.jp/carlife/images/UserCarNote/456663/p8.jpg |
