Adam@Z1auto.com Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 btw, Fujitsubo make the Nismo y-pipe and zorst, Nissan just rebrand it, you may want to check the prices of them whilst your looking... they are completely different though in sound, not to mention price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam@Z1auto.com Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 dont think there going to look at every parcel plus if it doesnt say nismo on the box just exhasut tehy wont open to check!!!! never got any duty on my parcel from abroad and that was full off carbon goodies and a V1 nismo spoiler!!! suppose i was lucky then not for nothing, but do you ship internationally everyday? I do....I get paid to know these things but it does say NISMO on the box - all over Just because you didn't get an invoice for duties/taxes yet doesn't mean you won't get one in the future by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam@Z1auto.com Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 but theres so many out there!!! how come u dint get the nismo and u went for the 5zigen ??? Against Nismo Lots have the Nismo, not good write ups on some of the US forums, due to cracking it looks the same as stock, For 5zigen I fancied a true dual exhaust as I love the shapes at the back, Its a bit different, Very well made. nice blue tips and the sound track is just Lots of others out there to consider so advice would be dont just jump in. Have you typed the names of the other zorsts into Youtube? or found the website that has sound clips of quite a few of the ones available? The cracking people have had tend to be related to 1 component...Kinetix cats, or ebay test pipes. The reason is because these pivot things in a very odd angle, and as a result, cracking can occur on the Y pipe. Like I said, just poll how many people on here have it...0 issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigphil Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 We have not had any issues on quality with the Nismo so far. If you buy from the UK you have a full warranty on the exhaust no quible so a lot easier to deal with any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 If scaremongering about quality puts you off (re the cracking) pay the extra and get one from Phil. His customer service is second to non so if anything does go wrong you have the piece of mind that he'll sort it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 but theres so many out there!!! how come u dint get the nismo and u went for the 5zigen ??? Against Nismo it looks the same as stock, Personally I perfer that it looks quite like stock. Only sounds so much better when you want it to. It doesn't look as chavy and also easier to get away with come insurance time.

shire350Z Posted January 11, 2008 Author Share Posted January 11, 2008 why's that? which person doesnt see who can give the best price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 why's that? which person doesnt see who can give the best price? Look at it this way: Biggest risk in order: 1) Brinster 2) Adam 3) Bigphil Cheapest: 1) Very close between Adam and Phil 2) Brinster Therefore, imo, if you want the least risk then buy it from Bigphil. If you want the keenest price with a slight risk then get it from adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shire350Z Posted January 11, 2008 Author Share Posted January 11, 2008 well brinster is same as adam on price at around 780 inlcuding taxes think adam might be about 820 actually ill go with phil if he can match teh price as he's here just waiting to see what he says Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 IMO, if those prices are true then as long as Bigphill is less than £850 then thats where I'd be spending my money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 IMO, if those prices are true then as long as Bigphill is less than £850 then thats where I'd be spending my money. He was at £850 last time I saw him post a price. Remember that is with a full UK backed guarentee, so well worth the extra little bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
