How did you find the JoeZ on its own without the headers?

I'm debating wether to get cat back JoeZ or ISS without headers or just get headers with the factory exhaust, I wouldn't think the headers on their own would sound that much different than stock though?

You can buy them directly off ISS Forged http://www.issforged.com/product-line/exhaust-systems/

The ISS DES system is $2250USD and around $700 to ship I think.

I currently have a Borla axle back system which I removed and put factory exhaust back on, I have now put Borla back on for a bit more noise. I will more than likely go for the JoeZ system as I'm catching up with Brisman to hear it in person.

ilv1004s did you buy directly from ISS Forged?

Are you happy with ISS?

I was looking at the DES ISS Forged system as the QES may be to loud for a daily driver. If I import myself the JoeZ is about $600 cheaper than ISS system landed and seems to have good feedback.My main concern is cabin drone. If I get JoeZ

locally from dealer it's $5500 which includes manifold port and polish, intake and filter all fitted. I could probably save $2000 doing it myself but wouldn't have manifold port/polish.

It's very hard to choose exhaust without hearing them in person as YouTube doesn't give a clear indication of sound.

Does anyone in Brisbane have a Joe Z system that I could hear what it sounds like? I am deciding between ISS Forged or Joe Z, I want a nice sound with the least amount of drone as I use my car daily and am in it most of the day.

Thanks

I can't see much happening over Xmas. Happy to ship to Victoria

I have a Borla axle back exhaust for ISF. Been on car for approximately 10,000km. Will ship anywhere in Australia.

$500 including shipping

My car has an axle back Borla and I'm going to take it off and put factory system back on for a while. Will probably get a Joe Z or ISS forged DES system next.

thanks guys appreciate the response, so you guys reckon in 2014 a 08 car wit 70km be worth 50k? also do you find there is much demand for them when you are selling them?

thanks

To be honest I don't think a 6 year old ISF would be worth 50k. If you look on carsales in the research section they quote trade in/wholesale at between 52-58k now with 40-70,000km.

Is the price of $2000 confirmed? This is plus fitting of 6-8 hours?

How much did you guys pay for your Joe Z?

Maybe we can start a group buy?

Thanks Blacky. That makes sense. Do you have the Joe Z system?

Meant to also ask does the Joe Z system come without cats? Is this legal?

Still deciding on which system to get. My car arrives in a couple of days and has a axle back Borla system - haven't heard it yet though. Think ill want something a little louder but not to loud for daily driving.

When I was looking at buying a new one the guys at Indooroopilly Lexus in Brisbane quoted me $5000 with ported manifold not sure if this included headers which seems a little excessive if it didn't, they claimed they import them from Lexus in the USA. I drove over and had a look underneath and its a Joe Z system!

How much should I expect to pay for Joe Z in OZ?

Thanks

Hey Guys,

Thank you all for your input - my issue is that Joey Z is 3k from Chatswood + install. When you can get ISS Forged system for $1700 + shipping (Another $470). The thing i like about the ISS Forged system is i can get rid of the fake quad tips as well (which i cant stand about the car)

They sound good too :

Malibu, where are you based mate, would love to hear your car I am in North Sydney.

Can you tell me who quoted you on the ISS forged system?

I'm also looking at coilovers. I had KW V3 on my RS5 and they were a pretty good ride, just need to find the right adjustment to suit your driving style. I have been deciding between BC, D2 and KW. Obviously the KW are a lot more expensive and probably better but since I don't track my car I may go the cheaper option providing they come with some sort of warranty. BC seem to have good reviews on club lexus
