Default Remark v2 Axle Back Installed

Just finished installing my new Remark v2 axle back exhaust and I must say I'm impressed.
It started raining as I was recording the video below, so I was only able to record start up and idle. I may try recording more in the future but not sure when.

The fitment is spot on and the polished finish looks wonderful, I'm not a fan of burnt tips.
Removal and install was straight-forward and simple. (Hardware included 4 nuts/4 bolts/2 gaskets/1 plastic Remark license plate frame.)
The weld quality looks pretty good as well, IMHO.
I must say that at first I loved the stock exhaust note but, as was suggested to me by several members, "you'll want more from the exhaust after a while".
I learned the error of my ways and do agree that, yes the stock exhaust is lacking an aggressive note.
Why the Nismo versions of our cars didn't come from the factory sounding at least this good is beyond me.

The Remark exhaust on the other hand doesn't seem to be overly loud but, definitely is louder than stock and with a deeper and somewhat aggressive tone.
I hope to get "My New, Improved ZCar" out tomorrow for a drive to stretch her legs a bit, weather dependent.

Here is a video comparison of stock OEM to Remark and also a few photos.
