my wallet is fine with Js Racing prices but definitely not with ASM or Amuse prices. Haha

It really sucks that you got the short end of the stick here. I agree that your welds look really bad and its strange to say the least. I hope you get some sort of formal communication from J's in Japan to explain how that could have happened while building it and how it passed their QC. They're a great JDM brand so this is really unexpected...
You would have enjoyed that 60RS.

I agree with ASM and Amuse.
My ASM kit was perfect, and i mean perfect out of the box. That is because ASM destroys their molds after a certain amount of units made to ensure perfection.
Amuse also ensures their products are well.. pretty. And they very well are.
I still hope to have a Amuse exhaust in my near future.

I swear I remember there was a group buy or something ages ago with a J's exhaust that a lot of people were unhappy with the quality. Not surprised the TI exhausts have nicer welds its a lot more difficult material to work with. Hope Evasive is able to help you sort it out.
ASM and Amuse are pricey but the level of quality is immediately apparent.

Hah! So you were the guy on the FB group. Did you take that down per Evasive's request? Because that thread was turning into a total shitshow.
As far as the exhaust goes I have no words.....Speculation can just go in way too many directions for this one lol. @RolanTHUNDER I take it your J's exhaust didn't look like that, even though you got it secondhand

J's racing sources alot of their products out to Taiwan, and its been this way for years. Ever since one of their president was involved in a hit and run which caused a cultural shift in the brand.
Mugen also shifted alot of their products to Taiwan; however their quality has not dwindled as much as its more cosmetic products.
I do agree that J's racing products are comical as far as fitment and quality. It is almost an ongoing joke as too how bad their cosmetic items fit, and how outrageous their prices for things like radio doors are.
It is unfortunate to see their exhausts affected, and i do believe Evasive will press them to have this fixed for you. From a business perspective, this is not a good look for anyone.

I've had some quality control issues with ASM and Toda Racing even, but it was minor. I've got parts from pretty much every JDM S2000 tuner, US brand/made S2000 parts have worse quality control, from my experience.

Your choice of the 60RS is understandable in light of volume
