I'm 6'6" and going to put my car on jacks and install this system when I get it. Now I wish I was short, lol.

The Nameless axelback is about the quietest exhaust for the BRZ/FR-S other than maybe the TRD. You might want to get a second set of hands to help with the install since it sometimes takes a bit of force to detach the exhaust from the hangers (even with silicone spray).
Like others have said, the uneven tip issue isn't just a problem with the Nameless and I've seen it on Perrin's and SRT's. It seems that if you loosen the forward exhaust hangers on the front pipe you can get enough wiggle room to straighten everything up.

For those who have installed the overpipe/ front pipe combo...
Do you need to lift the engine/undo engine mounts? Since its a long tube Thanks |

Ok I emailed Nameless about the uneven tips, and this was their response:
The tip alignment issue was simply a shift during the shipping process, and is very easily remedied. Furthermore, if you encounter any fitment issues during or after your installation, we encourage you to contact us right away. Usually we can diagnose and resolve any issues without any real complication. I replied, asking when the new design would be rolled out, etc, and this was their response: From this point forward, all of our exhausts will be produced using our new configuration (3" or 2.5" Main Circuit to dual 2.25") unless otherwise noted. We have the parts in stock currently to build out the new design, and there will be no difference in price between the two. With this new design, we will be offering the same style muffler configuration that we currently offer on the Subaru WRX/STI Hatchback. We will have a muffler delete, 4" Straight through, and the 5" offset design. The 5" offset design is going to give you the deepest exhaust note, with the lowest volume between the 3 different configurations. If you plan on introducing forced induction at some point in the future, the 3" main circuit will be the optimal solution for you. If you do not plan on going that route, then I would recommend the 2.5" primary with the dual 2.25" secondaries, that is going to give you the deepest, quietest tone out of the possible configurations. |

You need to loosen one mount on the passenger car. Just need to unbolt one (or two I don't remember right now), lift the engine from the oil pan about 2 inches and good to go.

Insert big stick. Pry gently? That's what I would do. It's only metal tubes. 10mm at the tip won't take much. It got bent so unbend it?

At some point in this thread (or the header one), someone posted the instructions Nameless gave them to do it.
