Compare GR Corolla exhausts from AWE, RSE Japan and REMARK, including Touring, Track, titanium and resonated options with current Australian pricing.

2 min read

Choosing the best exhaust for a Toyota GR Corolla depends on what matters most to you: everyday refinement, maximum volume, titanium weight reduction or a more premium multi-tip appearance. Sequential Racing stocks several GR Corolla cat-back systems from AWE, RSE Japan and REMARK, giving owners a wide range of sound and budget options.

GR Corolla exhausts at a glance

Exhaust Positioning Current price
AWE Touring Edition Road-focused cat-back $3,265 AUD
AWE Track Edition More aggressive AWE option $2,800 AUD
RSE Type-R Titanium Lightweight JDM titanium $2,440 AUD
RSE Type-D Titanium Premium titanium configuration $3,400 AUD
REMARK Resonated Cat-Back Resonated stainless street system $2,880 AUD
REMARK Elite Spec Premium stainless system $3,900 AUD

AWE Touring vs AWE Track

The AWE choice is straightforward: Touring is aimed at owners who want a stronger exhaust note while keeping the car suitable for regular street use, while Track is the more aggressive option. If your GR Corolla is a daily driver, Touring is normally the more balanced starting point. If sound is the priority, Track moves further in that direction.

RSE Type-R vs Type-D titanium

RSE Japan is the option for buyers who specifically want a titanium exhaust and JDM-style construction. The Type-R currently starts at a lower price than many premium stainless systems, while the Type-D sits higher in the range. Titanium is especially attractive when weight reduction and material choice matter as much as sound.

REMARK exhaust options

REMARK gives GR Corolla owners several stainless configurations, from the resonated burnt-tip cat-back through to its higher-end Elite Spec systems. These suit buyers who want a more conventional multi-piece stainless setup with several appearance options.

Which GR Corolla exhaust should you choose?

  • Daily driver: start with AWE Touring or a resonated REMARK system.
  • Louder street build: consider AWE Track.
  • Lightweight JDM build: consider RSE Type-R or Type-D titanium.
  • Premium multi-tip appearance: look at the REMARK Elite Spec range.

Do you need a tune for a cat-back exhaust?

A conventional cat-back exhaust changes the system after the factory emissions hardware and is generally installed as a hardware upgrade rather than as a tuning requirement. If you also change the downpipe or other emissions-related components, the setup becomes more involved and you should consider tuning, fault-code behaviour and local road requirements separately.

With the release of the GR Supra in 2020, we witnessed the culmination of a two-decade-long anticipation. The GR Supra also referred to as the MK5, underwent a remarkable transformation, blending its iconic JDM heritage with contemporary design elements, including contributions from the renowned BMW Z4 platform. While some may perceive this collaboration as a departure from tradition, it's undeniably a testament to the enduring allure of the Supra lineage, echoing the legendary 2JZ engine resonating through to the B58.

Behind the wheel of the GR Supra becomes the focal point of admiration, drawing fellow enthusiasts and eliciting spontaneous snapshots from passing people. My own journey into automotive culture was shaped by the vibrant scene of the 90s, particularly growing up in Melbourne, where car salons and cultural exhibitions brought JDM customization to life, from slammed suspensions, to under glow lights, supercharged turbos adorning from the streets to showroom exhibition floors.

Amidst the rapid evolution of the Australian automotive landscape, I recognized an opportunity to cultivate the car community around the modification and enhancement of the GR Supra. This endeavor is dedicated to providing a specialized platform centralised enabling high quality products sourced into Australia for car enthusiasts like myself on the limitations of the GR Supra (Unlike US and Japan).

While the Australian market for car modifications may be comparatively modest in scale compared to regions like Asia, USA, or Japan, our aspiration is to create this community from an inclusive space where like-minded individuals can access products, meet, share insights from a the collective experience of automotive enthusiasts across the nation- and hopefully one day globally.

Join Sequential Racing Australia as we embark on this journey, celebrating the legacy of the supra and championing the spirit within Australia's dynamic car modification community forging connections through our shared passion for automotive culture.

Thank You
