well after a long search and endless trawling of the net,here it is my GENOME BACKBOX

ARRIVED TODAY AWAITING FITMENT



1 HOUR LATER







im very happy with the outcome, it looks and sounds the bo**ocks, i definatly reccomend it.

(ive already started to remove the STI GENOME writing on the backbox,as i wated it to look plain and i dont own an STi either . but i need some paint remover to finish it off)

 

id leave the writing on there wats so good about these exhausts everybody goes on about them never heard one

 

have a listen,this is how they sound (this isnt mine)

YouTube - sti GeNome backbox

 

put it this way. you and i have had/currently have the pleasure of hearing one of the nur spec-r's on our cars. its the dogs danglies i hear you say. i totally agree. loved the sound on my old scoob...

this is better... the genome is perfection.

 

Where did you buy it and how much did it set you back mate?

Looks amazing!!

 

well put my friend

 

Jap Performance Parts : Home

£263 delivered, abit less than a new one from japan i can tell you

 

The genome does sound awesome. I have a Prodrive backbox at the minute but it aint right!!

I need more noise!

 

treat yourslef mate

 

I did last night, I bought a new Alpine headunit!!

Maybe next month...

 

just added a reply to another post of yours in th egeneral section so ignore that one mate as i did not look in here first.

so by that i take it your a very happy chappy!!! i shoul drecive mine tomorrow and i am with the other guys leave the decal on, show it off i will be, an dalso come resale time if you choose not to sell it with the car you can prove it is the real deal.

can i ask what diammeter the pipe work is 2.5" or 3" as they could not tell me? as i need to source the rest of the exhaust

cheers

steve

 

just sent you a pm mate, ide prefer to take off the writing (might leave the genome) as for proving its the real deal the STi GENOME is inprinted on the tail pipe then coloured so its always visable.

i wont be selling it on anyway

 

glad it turned up ok mate, i'll be honest that the sale sounded a little iffy to me with the same pic on the add, but i'm just a suspicious b'stard at the best of times
pleased it worked out, it really is a cracking piece of kit isn't it? do a tunnel run or get a mate to do a flypast, just an awesome sound

the writing can be a bit of a marmite thing, mines staying as original, but i can appreciate the clean look aswell. does look very tidy

 

yeah it had me thinking to,seen as they used the same pic,but it all worked out.
i do like the look of the genome without the writing (a-la elmerfudpukker) also seen as i dont drive an STi i dont want to dress it up like one if you know what i mean.

 

So are these as loud/louder than the Blitz Nur Spec R or even the Afterburner Vortex? Can't really tell how loud it is from the vid, but it does sound nice.

Also, what diameter is the tip of the backbox?

 

different sound to the blitz, not as loud ( is anything) but it sure sounds nice on full throttle.. not measured the tip but i think its 5"

 

is blitz the loudest?

sounds good

 

not 100% sure if its the loudest but it sure sounds nice and loud

 

Blitz NurSpec RX for the Centre and BB, sound without the noise or Nur Spec S for the Backbox (quieter than full R System).

Glad it arrived ok matey

 

yep, and fair play for doing so. seen a few wrx*sti* and it just smacks of sticking an 'M' badge on an old 318. each to their own but it's not my bag.

not meaning to jump into your thread mate (and hopefully you'll agree) but i find this exhaust is great because it somehow does quiet and loud when you want it and this is something i've searched hi and low for (and got thru a shed load of backboxes!) personally i don't think it's as loud as a blitz or afterburner, but on the other hand they are just loud all the bloody time and that's what did my head in with all the loud ones i've had

anyways, i've taken up too much space on your thread already mate enjoy

 

That is a sweet exhaust, Good find.
It pays to spend time looking for something you really want

 

looks fantastic mate
hope your happy with the rumble
wiley

 

nah never gonna be as loud. the nur spec-r is just pure evil, whereas the sound track from the genome is perfection. the noise level, sound quality itself, amplification. coming from someone who had a blitz system on his scoob which was obnoxiously loud, id have loved a genome backbox for my classic, just for the unrivalled quality.

 

yep youve hit the nail on the head mate. its a perfect backbox, as youve put " its quiet then loud when you want it to be"

cheers guys for all the comments

 

ha mine turned up today!!!!!!!!!!

hoope to get it fitted at the weekend

 

nice one mate, did you get knocked up at 8am like i did

hope its all in order for you mate.

you'll love it

 

Fair do's you searched high and low, glad it was worth the wait mate.

Love them

 

I've been tempted by one of these before. I might have to have another look.

 

theres one in the general forsale section mate

 

was waiting for me when i arrived at work ar 8:45

cant fault the service form the guys at JapPerformanceParts

One thing that i am worried about is that the exit pipe is bigger than i thought not too sure how it will look on a classic
