Exhaust Tips *UPDATED* pics, info
 
10 Attachment(s)
Hi everybody in the forum,

I was wondering what is the Pipe Diameter after you take of the stock exhaust tips off?
I really want to switch out those little ones we have right now. I believe I lot people here also what to know the answer.

Can you give me a few choices which would make is look like euro sepcs? Round, angled, etc. I am a total noob when it comes to exhaust tips :bonk:

Thanks a lot
Eric

*Update*:

Just went to my local Canadian Tire this afternoon for luck and look what I found!!
29.99CAD each + 12%HST:mad0259: = 67.18 dollars well spent
Alignment took a little while, but I want it to look like its stock from the factory.

I would say they don't look too bad, what do you say!
*Special thanks to "Draco-REX", the 2 1/4" pipe diameter is pretty much spot on :thanks:

**More Update**
Since I see some people here in Canada want to know more about the Tips that I brought from Canadian Tire. Here is some information about the Tips.

I think they are not on the Canadian Tire website, I just happen to see them in store, nor are they big brand products(or are they?). However, I am extremely impressed by the quality of the Tips considered their price.

Go to your local store and check them out, since my store carries lots of there products in many different styles. There's a good chance yours carry it too! :thumbup: Just found their website, they are only available in Canadian Tire http://www.dnamufflers.com/Tuned/roundbolton.html

The installation was pretty easy, the 2.25" diameter is a little bigger than the stock pipes, and its a good thing. You can angle the tips for a look that you prefer. There's a lot of room to adjust the lenth, so you can stick it out if you want. But I slide it all the way in to make it look like this which I prefer. You can use the Z thingy came with the furnitures that you get from IKEA to screw the... screws? :D

Hope that helped, if you have more questions let me know!

I was thinking of replacing the tips altogether with larger tips. Maybe sawing the current ones off and have new ones welded on.(professionally of course)

I'm not sure what to do, or where to go.

Draco-REX 06-14-2012 03:33 PM

Put the saws-all down.

Now back away slowly.

Ok.

Relax.

These are the ones I chose until I can get a full exhaust:

If I were to guess on the piping size, maybe 2 1/4"

Ericfrs 06-14-2012 03:35 PM

I believe the tips we have right now are only held in place by a 10mm bolt and can be easily removed! Hope that is good news for you, or you just want to saw something off XD

Draco-REX you beat me to it!!

The ones you have looks neet. I was wondering if DC Sports makes ones that are a little bigger? Diameter wise.

Yup. The EX-1010 is a 4" angled tip and the EX-1013 is a 4.5" angled tip. All of these are at Advance Auto Parts. Other chains will have different brands and styles.

Hey Ericfrs,

Awesome exhaust tips for your Ultramarine FR-S!

I think they look really good and I want to add them to my FR-S when it is delivered laster this month.

I was searching the Canadian Tire website, and I was wondering, were these the exhaust tips you bought?

http://www.canadiantire.ca/AST/brows....jsp?locale=en

Did it come already sized to fit a 2 1/4" pipe diameter, or did you have to do anything to make it fit properly?

Thanks for the pics!

Nice choice. I like the smoothed lip over the fully rolled lip on the set I have. THey look real good.

MVJ1975 06-15-2012 08:30 AM

Looks great!

Im a big fan of the HKS spec L exhaust tips, that carbon fibre ring. i like it!

Cheddar 06-15-2012 09:38 AM

how much do you want to send me a pair over to Miami!?

Ericfrs 06-15-2012 12:47 PM

Glad you guys liked it, I like the ring with in a ring look.
Nothing was chopped or modified, just put those boys on!

Koji_Online 06-15-2012 12:54 PM

Thanks for sharing Eric! these tips look exactly like the JDM tips; probably even better because I do really like the ring within a ring look that you mentioned; & they're less than half the cost! Amazing; I plan to do this =D
