Question Anyone with M2 XO2 (HKS Clone)

Can someone who has the M2 XO2 (HKS Clone) please tell me where the exhaust says it's made from? I searched around and couldn't find anything. As long as it doesn't say "MADE IN CHINA" that'll be a sufficient answer.

Please and thank you.

It's a cheap exhaust why do you care if it says made in china? I don't have the m2 brand, but I don't even recall it saying made in anywhere on it at all... Definitely not on the tips or noticeable like that if that's all you care about.

How can it be an M2 X02? M2 is a brand and so is X02 haha. I have the actualy X02 exhaust, not the M2 but I assume same thing pretty much. I love it, It doesn't look pretty anymore, the pipes have a slight layer of surface rust, but that is all under the car where no one sees anyway. Why spend 1500 when you can spend 500 and get "the same thing" It's in quotes 'cause quality isn't the same and you can't be an HKS fanboy, but you can have a spare grand to spend elsewhere

All of the knock off exhausts are categorized as x02 style clones. Saying x02 does not mean the crappiest, old brand of x02, but rather just a knock off hks of the category.

You're buying a knock off exhaust so don't have high expectations. The M2 brand is a branch of Megan Racing. Megan Racing, if I'm correct, is mainly Chinese made.

Regardless, I myself have the M2 (X02) exhaust and, even though it has some fitment issues, I think it's very well worth (or lack of) the money.

Here is mine. I had a little fitment issues but no big deal the exhaust actually sounds great and for $290 shipped you can't ask for more.

This forum has a new feature called SEARCH. I would suggest you try it before posting any other stupid threads.

This method has been tried, and yielded no results pertaining to the subject matter of "Where was it manufactured?". So kthxbai.

Its a G35 , not a Skyline GTR, it doesn't have active rear steering.

Yeah.. it's a G35 with Rear Active Steering. It's an option for 06+ models.

When I start my car even the RAS light blinks on the guage
