they said J's made their version exclusively for them and were selling them as Js racing exhaust, AJR version.
wait so ajr said they had j's make them some special products?

The letter CLEARLY states they have never done so. So ajr must be lying.

Explain to me why when I sent an email to the link on the "official" J's Racing North America website, I got a reply back from AJR?

I have reason to believe AJR runs J's N/A...and they're most likely not lying

A reply I got back from AJR a while ago said:

Hey there,

We sell all authentic parts. Which parts did you see are branded "special
models"?


Regards,
Jason Tam
So, where are all these special models that aren't J's Racing parts?

EDIT: I'd like to state I have nothing to do with AJR, have never purchased anything through them, and probably never will considering I'm not into the JDM scene. I just believe they are also J's N/A in disguise and import(ed) the real products.

[QUOTE=AJR Jay,Jul 30 2009, 12:01 PM] We have only imported J's Racing products in the past. Whatever products J's Racing supplies us is what we sell to customers.

Regarding authenticity of parts, over 50% of the products we've received from J's Racing in the past may or may not have had J's Racing labels, badges, engravings, or stickers

are you guys basing this on FITFREAK.COM thread? the exhaust AJR asked T1r to make? the dolphin tip exhaust AJR was selling and everyone mistook it as a J's Racing? cause the s2000 exhaust from AJR is branded J's Racing with the logo and everything...

^^ from FITFREAK.COM

while this is the diff from the AJR S2000 exhaust and the J's Racing one

^ Used J's Racing

^brand new from AJR

quoted from a J's Racing North America employee
"Every J's exhaust has a badge on it. Also a hole to mount the silencer. "

quoted from Illusive on FITFREAK.COM
"Addressing the letter from J's, if you read it clearly, it states that "[they] have not authorized or sanctioned any shop or company to make their original version from our titanium exhaust" which would mean a simple re-badge of their existing J's Racing design."

this one has the badge, the same diameter, the hole for the silencer, the same color, the welds are spot on, the same everything i believe the only difference is AJR modded it to be a 2 piece...i would wish AJR could shed some light on this...I want to believe that a company as big as AJR wouldnt make replicas selling them as a J's exhaust
