OK, I know you guys are waiting on the HKS exhaust but the HKS folks are taking their sweet time so I went looking for something else.
I found a Blitz exhaust made for the Celsior in Japan and it is a catback so it will be state legal (I'm pretty sure).
I'm trying to get some pics of it, but from what I hear it has a very low hum so it isn't loud and has a 60.5mm piping with 100mm tips.
The price I got quoted is $850 with S/H from Japan (this is $50 cheaper then the estimated quote I got for the HKS).
I was wondering how many people are willing to purchase one so I can see if we can get a group buy or not.

Stephen, this isn't a group buy. This is just to inform people on a exhaust I found.
Thanks,

Here is a pic of the Blitz Realize TT.
It is the same style exhaust but dual for the LS.

Hey Loule,

As you know I've been looking for an exhaust. I like the looks of it, not to big, modest tips... I would like to somehow confirm that it's not a growling beast. What kind of timeframe are we looking at???

SQ-LS

I got news back that we can't do a group buy untill this thing is confirmed that it will fit a US LS with no major problems.
I think I might just purchase one and see how it goes and relay back the info to yall.
The timeframe is 3-4 weeks S/H from Japan.

Loule i do not know what to do wait for HKS or go with Blitz,but you just cause me more problems by adding to my want to do list for my ride. I just might go with a universal exhaust and get the quad look and with striaght pipe off the way thru.Do you think i will get more power than the HKS and Blitz? I am changing exhaust because mines right now looks to ricey, they are universals and they look like the Tanbae type.

SQ-LS

You are going to get more HP but not by much, 1-2 HP.
What you are doing is exchanging a ricey looking exhaust for a loud ricey sounding exhaust.
Straight piping it is going to be loud and annoying.
Trust me, my exhaust just fell off and it is loud and annoying as hell!
All it has now is the carb, I had to clamp the exhaust up with some tie clamps for now.
The reason I wanted the Blitz is it is a good name with good quality backing it.
Plus, the outlet isn't that large as to making it ricey or loud enough to sound like the weed wacking four bangers!

I want to get the HKS or Blitz,but i really like this quad look.

See this picture i what my rear too look like that.

SQ-LS

I saw that quad look from David at Gtautosports emailed me about.
I don't like the look but if you like it, I know David can get it for you.

LOTC

yeah,but it is hard to get a hold of david.
Is a straight pipe really going to be that lound even with a larger engine,even louder than those four banging riceboys.

SQ-LS

It sounds like a V-8 mustang but louder!
That is how my LS sounds like right now without the exhaust.
Email David, he is repling back now with about a day delay.
I got a pic from him but deleted it since I don't like that look.

I do not mind a little grunt coming out of my LS,but is it loud enough to get pulled over by the cops,i do not mind the sound as long as it does not sound like a 4 banging misquito.

Oh by the way Loule,my car is on the Carson Toyota Clublexus meet gallery.Look at pg8 Dscn1172.it is on the upper right hand corner.

SQ-LS

Your not getting how loud it is.
My car basicly vibrates when reving! :eek:

Your car is tight!
Looks like mine a little; same color and clear turn signals.
Man can't wait till mine gets done! (two more weeks supposedly)
Well I decided to order the Blitz so I'll tell you what it feels and sounds like when I get it in and installed.

Hey Loule,

So it will be about 3-4 weeks until it comes in??? Definitely let me know. If it's even close to as quite as the Borla then I'll get one, just for the fact that only some guy from Houston will be the only other person with it. You didn't happen to get HP readings with a stock exhaust so you could see the difference with the new one did you??

SQ-LS

I didn't get HP reading but I got track time and experience with the old one.
I'll keep yall informed.

Some guy from Houston....

zushwa

Your track times will be skewed with all that new stereo equipment!!!
