The Bounty Bar Kid Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 When I purchased my car, I was told by the dealer that it was a Borla Exhaust system and whilst I have been going through this forum with a fine tooth comb, I came to realise that it isn't a Borla. It is a Fujitsimo Giken exhaust. Not got a clue about it. Anybody able to tell me about it? A simple search revealed that an old member called Ming had one on their Zed. Apart from that I have no clue, so any help would be great if poss. Thanx Dips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leodspider Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I believe the borla is a true dual exhaust system, whereas the one you have on your zed is just the back box. im sure someone will be here to confirm soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The G Man Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 The Borla for the 350 is not a "true dual", http://www.borla.com/products/search.as ... san%20350z, it's a catback. Had one on my old RX8, the sound is awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Fujitsubo I think you mean, and not a bad system imo. have a look at their site (not the greatest) http://www.fujitsubousa.com/ The japanese site is better: http://www.fujitsubo.co.jp/english/ This might be the one you have? http://www.fujitsubo.co.jp/english/legalis_r.html Edit: Just to add not exactly a cheap system either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had one on my old RX8, the sound is awesome True Duel, as in the back box splits into two pipes leading to each bank? Because it does do that.

Just wondering if anyone has some experience on it, their thoughts and if there are better ones out there. It sounds great but it's the only exhaust I've ever heard on it. Ideally I want the best BHP exhaust without going decat. Gonna get a Berk HFC asap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I'm reliably informed (by the previous owner) my "other" Zed has a Fujitsubo zorts - described in the advert as "Twin" but it is in fact a cat back Y-piece to single pipe - good bore and looks OK apart from a damaged flexi - can't say what it sounds like as the engine is still TU.

Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 The Fuji is very similar to the Nismo, it's a good system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its a true dual, you don't have a Fujitsubo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, a true dual is only 2 pipes all the way back to the box. You'll probably find that the back box has a seperator in it to aid flow I'm sure theres a pic somewhere of the APS exhaust backbox opened up, which is the same setup as the Borla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
