What do you think about this exhaust: http://www.robearracing.com/pd_ss.cfm The only reason I am thinking about getting this one over the Apexi N-1 is that it is stainless steel and the Apexi is not.

SUS304 > apexi's piping
SUS304 is the only way to go when you have shitty winters. I got an stainless steel exhaust made with SUS409 stainless and it's really really rusty within a years time, i live in ohio and we only have mild winters. Get an exhaust thats fully made from SUS304.
Ex. The one you posted, greddy evo, greddy sp2, thermal research and development exhausts, invidia exhausts, kteller SS exhausts.
The ceramic coating doesnt make any differnce other than the looks of the exhaust. It makes it more sleeper looking.

There is no way in hell i can tell what kind of fitment issues there are going to be from online pictures. I dont even know what car your putting it on. :confused
This is what he said about it: The fitment issue was that the hangars on the exhaust didn't exactly line up to the hangars on the car. I was able to get everything put it there because the rubber hangers allow a little bit of stretch.VtecAddict said:
The other problem I had was that my exhaust didn't come with the big ass gaskets that need to go on all of the points that have the spring bolt. The spring bolt areas are meant to flex and won't shut without the big ass gasket.
The other things is that the exhaust doesn't tuck all the way up in the old area where the exhaust is supposed to go, so it hangs down a little in the middle of the car.
It's a good exhaust, though, in terms of of sound and looks. I don't particularly like the gigantic tip, but I've gotten over it.

The gasket shouldn't be a problem. Any muffler shop should have a bunch on hand. Why not ask Robear about your questions and see how they respond. For example:
I'm interested in your product, but I've heard of a few issues that are a concern to me... (Blah blah blah... :blahblah )
Maybe you got it already...? :confused

I have not got it yet. I emailed Robear and this is what they said about it:Shiba-Kun said:
I asked him If it goes over or under the LCA and if there were fitment issues and this is what he said:The ss exhaust does go over the lca’s and I have had no install problems at all. It is Stainless Steal.
Then I asked if it is angled like the Apexi N-1, This was his response: It is very similar to the apex N-1 system
Then I asked him about the gaskets, this was his response: And yes it does have all the gaskets
I am seriously thinking about getting this exhaust.
I'll try but every about is car is bad luck. I have a broken door handle, a broken hood release, I got new suspension which was proffesionally installed. They didnt tighten the nuts enough and one of the came off while I was driving. They fixed it but now there is a knocking sound coming from the dirvers side front or rear. And my lip just broke. Thats why it is hard for me to think positive.Shiba-Kun said:
