Looks more like a BJX pipe to me. The 100s' downpipe should run pretty 
much straight down from the manifold, else the clutch lever can hit the 
pipe when pressed to the floorboard (the one on my BN2 does; most 
annoying). Most/all aftermarket pipes cause this, and I'm told at least 
some of the OEM pipes did as well.
