I have a Tanabe racing medallion on my 99 prelude (dont know if that makes a difference) and it sounds great! I dont know how loud it is with the silencer in it but it's loud as sh*t with it off. It doesnt have the annoying "bees in a coffee can" sound either - nice and deep. Sorry I can't get a sound clip of it. It looks nice too!

i had custom piping with a Tanabe muffler on my car (1995 240sx KA24DE) and i hated it. it was really loud even with the silencer in. and i dont mean a nice loud sound. it was rather raspy in my opinion.

I think the Signal Auto Drifter cars usually use it. I think it sounds good. I saw there specs in Grip VIdeo and it was on the Drifter X sil80.

Tanabe makes a few different types but in general their stuff is well made. I have the Super Medalion Hyper Spec and I dig it, but I doubt most people would.

Do not buy the racing medallion. I have rode in a certain prelude with this exhaust and it's louder than it should be. It might be more quiet with a turbo though. IMO it attracts more attention than it's worth and doesn't sound the greatest either.

I finally found a sound clip of it. The sound is really nice just like the blitz nur-spec exhaust. What do you think of it?

yeah i wish i could find a better sound clip.... im hoping to be get my tanabe cat back soon.

it looks similar to this one

ive heard em in person on my friends sr powered 240 they sound really good. plus if you dont like it. drive around for a while and convince someone else how nice it is and sell it to them and buy a new one... lol

btw how much are you looking to spend on yours?....just wanna see if im getting a good deal or not.

i use to have a tanabe g medallion, it sounded awsome, one of the best sounding exhaust IMHO. it is not too annoying loud, and its very deep. the reason a custom exhaust with the tanabe muffler did not sound good, might be because there was no resonator. the g medallion is a huge muffler plus it had a resonator. the quality is excelent too.

I got my 80mm universal racing medallion for 140 shipped with a silencer on ebay. good deal! I'm doing custom piping so we'll see how it sounds. I've liked all the ones I've heard.
