Zedrush Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Its cheeky but I would love to hear few different exhausts and get an idea of what to buy NISMO, sorry to say it but it is awesome Quote
Toon Chris Posted February 21, 2008 Author Posted February 21, 2008 Hmm, well you say that but I`m concerned that its a little quiet? I want something that I turn off the radio and listen too. It comes from driving V6 Alfa Romeos. There isn't a lot that sounds as good as them but I`m wanting to try. Quote

Toon Chris Posted February 21, 2008 Author Posted February 21, 2008 I know, I missed my chance. Saying it sounds stunning doesn't help me decide, though As I'm buying it from you (I did mention that didn't I?) maybe I should ask you directly Do you have anyone around in the next few days I could pester and they wouldn't mind? The thing is, I want a nice sound, not too muted but at the same time want to avoid droning on the motorway or sounding like some souped up chav scooby with a dustbin on the back. Quote
davej Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Chris We'll be popping up to phil's probably on sat aft, so you can check out my fujitsubo (that sounded kinda wrong.......) Dave Quote

How about we stick the 5zigen on yours and then you can hear it first hand, can't offer more than that. Quote
Toon Chris Posted February 21, 2008 Author Posted February 21, 2008 No because then I will buy it ! Bloody nice offer though! I need to hear the Nismo too. And I`m not allowed to buy until the end of March because of warrenty Dave - rough idea of time and I`ll be there Quote

And I`m not allowed to buy until the end of March because of warrenty Dave - rough idea of time and I`ll be there Warrenty? Fook that, get it on. Lexx stuck the 5Zigen on his zed about 4 days INTO his warrenty Quote
Stew Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 I had warranty work done on my car with popcharger, V+ plenum and DC Zorst. I doubt they even noticed, well the mechanics would have! Quote
shire350Z Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 same here stew i had the axles looked at when the car was standard and even out of warranty they agreed to pay for parts when the car arrived back wednesday had the JWT and DC never said a thing just to make things harder for you chris, its gotta be the DC system ask stew and jacko Quote
Stew Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 It's all personal choice on exhaust sound. The 5Zigen is nice. Quote
Andy Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 for my 2cents worth, the Nismo on it's own is a little quiet but get some cats on there as well and it's a whole different animal! Quote
Toon Chris Posted February 22, 2008 Author Posted February 22, 2008 Ah, confirmed that teh Nismo is a bit quiet! I won't change the CATs. The DC system sounds good because of the twin piping. The 5Zigen is still in the running... Quote
shire350Z Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 there all great exhausts!!! But thats why i dint go for the nismo as you have to spend more to get the extra sound by buying the cats!!! again just my preference only one way mate really get to a show and listen to them all!! Quote
macca Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Which 5Zigen exhaust are you talking about or is there only one model they do? Is there a big price difference between the two and is the 5Zigen supplied with the same parts as the Nismo, i.e Y pipe mid section and cat back? Macca Quote

Is there a big price difference between the two and is the 5Zigen supplied with the same parts as the Nismo, i.e Y pipe mid section and cat back? Macca It's the 5Zigen pro racer. Comes in two versions flame burnt tips at £795 or plain polished tips at £750, this system is from the Y pipe back not cat back. Quote
davej Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Chris Hopefully should be up at phil's about 2:30 - 3ish Dave Quote
bigphil Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Chris Hopefully should be up at phil's about 2:30 - 3ish Dave Don't wish to spoil your day Dave but we had a slight disaster with your badges today. Quote

bigphil Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 NNooooo........ go on whats happened... dave destined to be badgeless........[/quot I purposely put two aside for you as reserved and while I was out today Andrew sold them to someone who just popped in. I have more comming next week at a very special price just to you. Quote
Toon Chris Posted February 23, 2008 Author Posted February 23, 2008 Ok, so I take it no Dave at Phils today then... Actually I was going to ask about badges when I got there too I have decided on two chrome fellas - just want to hold them against the car to check first. Oh well, the rugby is on today so I guess my plans will have to wait until next week Quote
