He was saying ad nauseum - "I wish I saved my money and bought a 348 instead" The engine sounded nicer than stock in the lower/mid range but doesnt sound as good at high end - lot of sound for sure but doesnt have an Italian scream.
i am curious as to what lights he had whre the turn signals are? seemed like he had his lowbeams there too. makes the car look smoother at night. is that kit available?

Sorry guys. Had to revive. I might have a cheap GruppeM exhaust coming my way. VERY rare. The only good clip of it was in this thread.
The GruppeM exhaust is simply rebranded from Racing Design Syndicate. OG Xavier, who lived 10 min away from GruppeM back in the day posted about this.
I suppose one should applaud their attempt to making something different but the styling of those tips seems a bit contrary to what some expect, I suppose some would like them however.

Haha bought my 99 in 2004. Still have it. Thought of selling it at some point, but NAH. So still same old gen owner here. LOL
I take it back. Header/muffler setup on Mr. Ogase’s and Xavior’s car was not a rebranded Racing Syndicate muffler. It was a rebranded Saclam setup with GruppeM style oval tips. Y-pipe is removed from this setup. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

The 355 Sakuram Sound was finally completed after having “Group M President Ogoshi” test drive it over and over again. 32 33 This job required both sound and high performance, so I learned a lot! **Click here for Group M's website. ** http://www.gruppem.co.jp/“
This was and is my impression as well. Lots of low/mid range grunt, but missing that signature 355 top end scream. No Y-pipe design appears to be the culprit.
