FULL TITANIUM MUFFLER for Z33-350Z
TYPE-D Dual – A New Peak in the Evolution of Titanium Exhausts
After years of refinement and relentless development, two legends now stand side by side.
The TYPE-R (Single), which redefined ultra-lightweight performance.
And the TYPE-D (Dual), born from the pursuit of beauty, sound, and precision in perfect balance.
Together, they represent the next chapter of the Z33-350Z legacy.
Nissan Fairlady Z Z33 350Z / The Pinnacle of Pure Naturally Aspirated Driver’s Sports Cars
Introduced in 2002, the Fairlady Z (Z33 / 350Z) marked the fifth generation of Nissan’s legendary Z-car lineage and remained in production until 2008.
Power came from a naturally aspirated VQ35 series engine:
・ Early model: VQ35DE – 280 hp
・ Mid model: VQ35DE RevUp – 294 hp
・ Late model: VQ35HR – 313 hp
Each version delivered sharp throttle response and smooth, linear revving all the way to redline—hallmarks of a true NA performance engine. Available with a 6-speed manual or 5-speed automatic transmission, the Z33 / 350Z avoided excessive electronic intervention. The direct connection between throttle input and engine response translated driver intent straight into motion. At a time when turbocharging and heavy electronic control were becoming the norm, the Z33 / 350Z stood apart—perfecting the concept of a pure naturally aspirated sports car.
It laid the foundation for future Z models and remains a symbol of the golden era of NA performance.
TOMEI USA x RSE– The Art of Single
In 2013, TOMEI USA introduced its first exhaust system for the Z33 / 350Z:
the TYPE-R Full Titanium Muffler.
The concept was clear: “The Art of Single.”
Not sound volume. Not visual impact.
Performance—above all else.
With an 80.5mm straight-through main pipe and an optimized exhaust path, TYPE-R extracted every pulse and breath of the naturally aspirated VQ35. The results spoke for themselves.
With thousands of units sold worldwide, TYPE-R became one of the most successful exhaust systems in RSE / TOMEI history.
The Challenge of Developing a Dual System
Following the success of TYPE-R, many Z33 / 350Z owners requested a dual exhaust—seeking a more aggressive rear view and a richer exhaust note. But RSE and TOMEI chose not to respond immediately.
The reason was simple:Lightweight is performance.
At the time, a dual layout inevitably meant compromises in weight and efficiency—compromises the engineering team refused to accept.
Years later, advances in titanium fabrication and layout optimization changed everything.
With new possibilities on the table, development resumed.
The goal was clear:
a dual exhaust system with refined aesthetics—without a single performance compromise.
TYPE-D – Redefining Dual Exhaust Performance
After extensive prototyping and exhaustive testing, the TYPE-D Dual Exhaust System was completed.
At its core lies RSE☓TOMEI’s DNA:
Function over Form.
TYPE-D inherits the philosophy of TYPE-R, elevating it into a true dual configuration designed for modern performance demands.
Key Specifications
・ Main pipe diameter: Φ80.5mm × 2
・ Material: Full titanium
・ Construction: Straight-through design
・ Weight: 10.45 kg (23.04 lbs)
・ OEM comparison: 21.0 kg (46.3 lbs)
・ Sound: Deep, dry titanium tone with refined low-frequency presence
・ Application: Nissan Z33-350Z (early, mid, and late models)
TYPE-D achieves dramatic weight reduction while maintaining ideal exhaust balance, drawing out the true character of the VQ35—deeper, sharper, and unmistakably titanium.
TYPE-R vs. TYPE-D – Comparison
| Model | Layout | Weight | Focus |
| TYPE-R [SINGLE] | Single | 5.9kg/13.0lbs | Ultra-lightweight, circuit focused |
| TYPE-D [DUAL] | Dual | 10.45kg/23.0lbs | Balanced street performance & aesthetics |
TYPE-R represents uncompromised track performance.
TYPE-D blends beauty, sound, and daily drivability.
Both share the same uncompromising titanium craftsmanship and engineering philosophy of RSE ☓ TOMEI USA.
The Sound – The Force of Titanium
TYPE-D delivers what we call the Force of Titanium Note.
At idle, a calm, low-frequency resonance fills the air.
Under throttle, the tone rises into a dry, articulate mid-range.
At high RPM, it transforms into the sharp, crystalline note unique to the VQ35.
This is not just exhaust noise.
It is an instrument—designed for sound.
Engineering Philosophy — And What Comes Next
TYPE-D is not merely an evolution.
It is a tribute to the legendary Fairlady Z.
The lightweight purity of TYPE-R.
The expressive balance and visual harmony of TYPE-D.
That balance defines the ideal performance RSE × TOMEI engineers continue to pursue.
By pairing TYPE-R or TYPE-D with the Exhaust Manifold for Z33-350Z (early & mid models),
naturally aspirated performance will be elevated even further.
(The exhaust manifold for late-model HR engines will be shared with the 370Z / Z34 platform and is coming soon.)
For Everyone Who Loves the Z
This exhaust embodies the joy of driving and the harmony of functional beauty.
If TYPE-R represents raw performance,
TYPE-D embodies the soul and style of the Z.
Choose the one that speaks to you—
and let titanium tell your story.
