I bought my S14 a few months back, and its been the most fun vehicle ive had by far. The Driftability and gas mileage, its the best of both worlds. I have come to a point where i think its time that my girls stock parts need some updating, and i want to start with the exhaust. so here is my question to all of you experienced "S" chassis owners with the KA24DE, which exhaust sound best on these cars. A large portion of my friends say to go with a Tanabe Medallion G cat back and a DC Sports Header with Cat Delete. the problem i am have is finding the header, i have found that tanabe exhaust but that damned header is discontinued everywhere i look, any ideas would be much appreciated. Also what kind of Nismo goodies can i get for any parts of my car

HKS hi-power, and Hot-shot has a good header, and no cat too

Most exhausts sound the same, but a good deep sounding exhaust is the nur-spec. I'd get shop to weld up some piping with a resonator and the muffler of your choice.

In all honestly, headers and test pipe are pretty much useless for a ka, and will only make the car more loud and annoying in my opinion... not my car though.

On My s14 ka24de I use a blitz nurspec r, Hotshot header, and resonated test pipe. On my s13 ka I used an hks hi power exhaust. The hks is quieter but not as deep as the blitz nor does it sound as good in my opinion. I also like the Yashio factory titanium exhaust. Its similar to the blitz nur spec r except its titanium and has no resonator. Thats what im going to be using when im done my sr20det swap in my s14.

Groovy thank you to those who replied im now leaning towards that nur spec, do you happen to have a sound clip of it by chance, and to all those who have a tanabe exhaust what do you think about their sound?
