Anyone with Apexi N1 exhaust.......(preferably 1 year or longer)

Are you have any problems with rust if you are a daily driver? I did the research and it appears on the AWD exhaust the piping is the same for both. So i guess it comes down to preference...meaning do i want stainless steel piping. Before i decide this, I want to know if anyone with the N! is having any rsut issues with their pipes?

No rust problems with mine then again my car is only up and running 60% of the time...

no rust here, just a bunch of scrape marks from the exhaust hitting bumps in the road and such.

buy some of that russ free sealer at pepboys and call it aday and no worries.

Is either are the aboved metioned cars daily drivers? There is a $300 difference in price and i can live with the N1 system if it doesn't rust out in 1 year. If there will be a rust issue after a year or two, I rather spend the extra money to get the GT series exhaust.

no rust just scratches and scrapes and its a daily driver

daily driver, had it for just under 3 years, lowered with eibach sportlines, and it's taken quite a beating, no rust and no leaks, awesome exhaust.

I think i will go ahead and get the N1 sounds like it will hold up ok.....

YEP! But other than that I've had mine for a little under 2 years, no rust. Excellent Exhaust!!!

Argh...I am torn....but more people are convincing me of the N1. Thanks for all the replies....

I've had mine for 2 years now and there is rust on it but not the custom down pipe. The rust is minimal and the sound is great.

aaaahhhh...rust.........you seem to be the first.

I have had my N-1 for about 2 years and 20,000 miles or so and I don't have any rust, just a bunch of scratches and dents. There might be a speck or two in the scratches, but I don't crawl under my car enough to notice or really care. OT, but what does the GT have to offer? Bigger piping? I can't find any info on Apex'i site.

Only Difference is that GT is full stainless steel. N1 is titanium coated.
