I currently have a tanabe hyper medalion catback exhaust (tips and y pipe) on the car but its honestly not loud enough as is. Im looking to get more out of the 2jz. Would a straight pipe be much louder and where can I get a good quality straight pipe fabbed for the car or is there any good brands already out there.

Heres an example of what it sounds like right now with a good quality DSLR.

I have straight pipes on my daily GS3 and it sounds like crap lol. Has a buzz noise to it. Maybe take the resonators off and put some cherry bombs or glass packs in place of the resonators

I don't have a 2JZ, but a resonator delete on my 400 went a long way. It really barks now, look into it for your 300!

I actually just put some flowmasters on today and have had the resonators deleted for awhile. I'm very very happy with the sound.

thanks fellas.

does removing the resonators create any drone within the cabin?

Kind of semi-related, I have the same axleback as you on GS400, with PPE headers and SRT intake. the car still sounds super quiet. Looking for a nice burbling idle noise if possible. Would you guys recommend chopping all the resonators? or just the big main one?

I can't speak for the 400. But when I did the resonator delete with just the stock exhaust I honestly didn't see or hear that much of a difference I don't think doing the delete would be the cause of drone. Though my drones bad in that 2300 rpm range but I don't mind it.

keep in mind that the GS3 and GS4 will sound completely different as you know when modding the exhaust..... I would try the resonator delete and maybe the top speed pro Y pipe.. I think there a youtube vid with the Top Speed pro kit on a GS3...

You should make a a totally separate thread for the 400 its a completely different engine and will sound different when modding exhausts.

Thanks fellas, I'll look into it.

Do a 3" midpipe with a muffler delete. Cheap and sounds pretty good.

I have a full legit catback system. I dont think Im going to ditch it anytime soon just to get a 3 inch midpipe with stock tips.

If "louder" is what you seek, then the easiest way is probably to buy the catback that I run on my daily - the "fake" GReddy Evo - sold by megan, top speed and a bunch of ebay sellers.

My other GS4 has the real Greddy and it is much quieter than the fake one - mostly due to one detail, the GReddy has small reversion tubes in the mufflers that allow more sound to be absorbed - I am in the process of making some for my fake catback.

But for you, I think the ebay catback will be just what you are looking for. just don't be fooled into spending more money for the same system, they are all the same, I see it selling for $300 and also for $500 and $700+

No matter hat you do with your Tanabe, it's designed to be a mellow setup and isn/t going to be very loud - DON'T get me wrong - it's a great system.


But if you want LOUD...
