Hi guys.

im currently running my wrx 2004 with a blitz nur spec r.

but im thinking of upgrading to either a blitz nur spec RX or a hks hi power.

any suggestions, will these sound better than the nur spec r??

thanx in advance

Why spend the money replacing an already upgraded exhaust?

ruffrydaa

OK here is the score,

Basically exhaust is damaged through insurance and i get either of the above 2 exhausts or obv the nurspecR(which they will give back to me anyway).

Which one is in more demand if i later wanted to sell, and does the RX sound better than the R?

RX is quieter and only a 2.5" IIRC ?

GazTheHat

Well the R is 96db with bung in and the RX 90db without. According to one site.

thanx guys.....and wat about the hks??

GazTheHat

Checked a couple of sites, but no ratings. Then realised that maybe you should be googling it.

I have a 3" Apexi N1 1piece cat back which sounds lurvely. Would need to find one off an import though for NewAge.

dnt know about the sound.. but your car is kinda phat. ..

how would u compare the sound to a blitz nur spec r??

codie247

Not had a Nur Spec R myself but have heard them. HKS is loud but not as loud as the Nur Spec, not as harsh sounding??? you really need to hear them for yourself mate. Thanks for the comment.

Cheers

HKS do a 3" dia. Silent Hi-Power with 4.5" tailpipe too. I've just got one fitted on my JDM Bugeye WRX. It looks gorgeous (I believe the same as the non Silent one), but is barely louder than the steel OEM STi one I had on before, so if you want to keep things relatively quiet for you and your neighbours and clear of the Law, I would recommend it. If you want big noise, then the "Silent" one is not for you. I am sure the regular Hi-Power sounds great: if you get on to the proper HKS Japanese website (and ignore the repeated requests by your computer to install Japanese language) there's a link you can select to play the sound of the Hi-Power. Sounds like a dragster!
