This is almost exact to the HKS. Im Sure its not Exact or might be I would like to hear the sound. I compared to HKS side by side in pics and looks exact.

they look very similar but the quality is definitely not. Ive heard the Xo2 on a 350z and it didnt sound too bad but I would be concerned about the longevity of the exhaust.

look for CXlighting or CXracing its the same one i have on my car and the exact same as that one...the titanium tips ARENT titanium tips so they will rust eventually if not taken care of or lots of snowy weather....its a carbon copy of the HKS....quality is near close im sure......

here is the video and sound of mine.....

Says the guy with 8 posts.

First of all, don't come in here with a cocky attitude. If that's how you wanna roll, head right on over to My350z--you'd fit in great over there.

Secondly, who rattled your cage? If I wanted some newb to come in and start a wannabe flame-war, I would've let you know.

Now, calm your **** down, take a chill pill, relax, and welcome to Driver.

EDIT: Oh, and it's NOT the "exact same as HKS". If it were the "exact same as HKS", it would say HKS on it. Knock off products FTL. Knock off's are why originals' prices are so damn high.

+1. Its not anywhere near HKS. Ive seen Xo2 exhausts have problems with the welds breaking and rusting. Better to save up and buy something thats better quality and will last longer.

this isnt my "home Forum" i frequent 6MT.net where i can say what i feel without being banned....anywho....how would i be the noob with nearly 3 times as many mods as u have on ur car....POSTing noob maybe but no noob to G35 by any means.....this exhaust isnt an X02....its a diff setup...NOT 100% hks clone obviously however it is same style and mine has no weld problems...the dude who helped install mine owns his own custom exhaust shop and said it was a very high quality exhaust setup....i can certainly afford HKS i just didnt see the justification to spend 2x as much....now i may eat my words if mine falls apart but as iv handled 2 nasty snow "events" this year and it still looks fine im safe for now

I actually started on 6mt, and found that this forum has a LOT more technical info, along with more people who actually know what they're talking about. 6mt tends to be mostly off topic banter.

2x as many mods? Congratulations, you want an Enzyte to go with that ego? You also, as you've said, pay for someone else to install your mods. So, if you really want to get into a pissing contest, we'll talk about who has worked on their own car(s) more. Seriously guy, go back to 6mt with your attitude. This place is more of a "family" than a forum. If you want to rock your holier than thou, my dick is bigger attitude, then GTFO.

PS--I never said you would get banned here, we just don't like bullsh!t.
