listing it for both cars since it fits both cars is perfectly correct

we have an ebay store, and list various downpipes and exhausts for WRX and STi - because they fit both cars. Saves us from having to pay for 2 separate listings, and increases exposure.

you sure about that? While Ichiba isn't exactly a top tier firm, it would not be the first time I heard of someone claiming a part was theirs, that wasn't

we sell their stuff btw - their test pipes are quite nice, but unfortunately only fit the DE's, not the HR's. If there is an HR application, it's not on their site

The problem is that some people dont know the mark up "other" parts have bc of name, so when an affordable parts comes out its automatically crap bc its not marked up. I love people that pay more for name ie HKS

I thought the 350zHR/370z has the same test pipes/hfc's and only those parts for the exhaust. I dunno about the y-pipe though.

Thanks for backing me up Z1. nogoodname is also correct. The the 07-08 350Z and 370Z all use the same test pipes. If you scroll down the listing you will see that under applications it clearly lists the models that part fits.

While I don't have the piping diameters handy, I can provide those tomorrow and will add it to future listings. These are TurboXS and high quality parts, not some junk. We use eBay as an advertising tool to drive traffic to our site.

Hope this clears up everything.

who actually makes the part ? Does TurboXS actually make the parts in house or are they made by another company in another country and shipped over ?

TurboXS makes their own parts. Parts are produced in Australia that started with Blow Off Valves and Boost Controllers in 1999. Eventually moving onto other Performance Accessories.

just an FYI as I talked to Ichiba Friday, asking about their HR testpipes - they don't make any

you might want to contact whomever sold them to you as an Ichiba part, unless you just got names confused with another brand (alot of brands sound the same nowadays)

try calling Ichiba directly, that's what I did, and at the least the person I spoke said there was no such animal - so who knows

Default Help

Guys, I have a 2008 350Z, and just got TurboXS Test pipes. Had them installed and the make some sort of rattling sound at the connection to the Y-Pipe. Its not raspy in the exhaust note. I was wondering if anyone has some advice on what couldbe causeing the issue. The tuning shope I had it installed at tried to feed me some **** that it was the exhasut tips. Could it be the y-pipe itself or the gaskets connecting to the y-pipe?

any advice would be great.
